Scene, Music, DIY Modes

If your Govee light supports AWS or bluetooth control, it is possible to setup HomeKit scenes to use different scenes and modes that you have setup in the Govee app. This includes scenes, music mode and DIY modes that you have created.

Requirements

• A model that supports AWS or bluetooth control:
  • For models that support AWS connection, you will need to enable the AWS connection in the configuration
  • For models that support bluetooth control, you will need to enable the bluetooth connection in the configuration
• The Eve app on your iPhone to create the scenes that will then appear in the Home app

Step 1: Finding The Code

You will need to find a specific code that you can later enter into the configuration for each scene that you want to create. The method of finding this code differs whether it is an AWS code or a bluetooth code.

Finding an AWS code

• Enable debug logging in the plugin settings, either for the entire plugin or for the specific accessory
• Open the Govee app on your iPhone, but make sure your phone's bluetooth is disabled - to ensure the device is connected to wifi
• If the device is already in the scene/mode you wish to use, then turn the light into colour mode to come out of the scene/mode
• Now switch to the mode/scene you wish to use
• Look in the Homebridge/HOOBS log, you should see an yellow entry appear like this:

  [Govee] [Device] the AWS code for this scene/mode is shown on the next line(s):
  MwUECAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADo=
  

  or

  [Govee] [Device] the AWS code for this scene/mode is shown on the next line(s):
  owABBAGTBv/1AAIA/wAA//X/AjI=,owEA/wAA//UAAgD/AAD/9f8CAF0=,owL/AAD/9QACAP8AAP/w/woAAFM=,o/8A/wAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKM=,MwUEhQAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALc=
  

• Copy the entire code which is needed in the next step

Finding a bluetooth code

Finding a bluetooth code can be a little more challenging as the plugin cannot find this for you.

• The following codes are taken from Govee-H6127-Reverse-Engineering and may or may not work for different models:

  0x01: Music
   0x00: Energic
   0x01: Spectrum(colors)
    0x000000: red, green, blue
    0xffffff: red, green, blue
   0x02: Rolling(colors)
    0x000000: red, green, blue
    0xffffff: red, green, blue
   0x03: Rhythm
  0x04: Scene
   0x00: Sunrise
   0x01: Sunset
   0x04: Movie
   0x05: Dating
   0x07: Romantic
   0x08: Twinkle (Formerly Blinking)
   0x09: Candlelight
   0x0f: Snowflake
   0x10: Energetic
   0x0a: Breathe
   0x14: Crossing
   0x15: Rainbow
  0x0a: DIY
   0x0b: Segments
    0x00:Left Half(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8)
    0x00:Right Half (9,10,11,12,13,15)
  

  • For example, the plugin code needed for 'Romantic Scene' is 0x04,0x07 (0x04 for Scene and 0x07 for Romantic)
  • For example, the plugin code needed for 'Energic Music' is 0x01,0x00 (0x01 for Music and 0x00 for Energetic
  • Copy the entire code which is needed in the next step

I am unable to help finding other scenes or modes that aren't in this list. You can experiment with these codes or find an exact code yourself with some reverse engineering.

Step 2: Configure The Code

You can use the plugin settings within Homebridge/HOOBS UI to enter the code found above.

• The plugin allows for two configured music modes, two configured scenes and two configured DIY modes
