Home Assistant integration to control the IKEA IDÅSEN standing desk. This integration might also work with other tables/controllers (DENCON). I tested this integration on MacOS and Linux.
This project is work in progress. It is also my first python and open source project.
- Connect
- Device selection in configuration
- Monitors current height and speed
- Move up/down/position
- Pairing on Linux.
- The used bluetooth library "bleak" doesnt allow to pair before connecting.
- On MacOS and Windows pairing happens automatically.
- I will try to add a workaround (bluetoothctl wrapper)
- The bluetooth connection is sometimes a little bit flaky. The integration will try to reconnect (sometimes this fails)
- Will hopefully be improved with the next "bleak" version
- Doesnt play well with other bluetooth integrations (Switchbot)
- Code quality needs to be improved (help wanted)
- Make sure the HACS component is installed and working.
- Add https://github.com/Xilinx64/idasen-desk-controller as a custom repository
- Install component and reboot
Upload the custom component to Home Assistant's custom_components directory and restart the service.
Pairing needs to be done via terminal for now.
Instuctions:
- Start bluetoothctl:
bluetoothctl - Start scan:
scan on - Wait until you see the mac address of the desk
- Pair desk:
pair 00:00:00:00:00:00 - Disconnect:
disconnect 00:00:00:00:00:00
Add the integration through the Home Assistant interface.
