I have three fans in my house controlled by these remotes and wall switches and the lights are constantly left on when no one is in the room. I would like to shut them off automatically when the room is empty.
I believe the wall switches are just remotes. How can I automate a fan controlled by these? I have a Broadlink RM4 pro that couldn’t learn the buttons. Anyone know what radio frequency these use? Any other ideas? Or do I just need to replace the controllers with something like the TreatLife wall/fan switch…or replace the entire fan with a smart one? Thanks! M

    My solution for light control after some ridiculous homemade arduino mess was just use smart bulbs and leave the “fan light switch” on. I also added a battery powered switch that signals the hub to turn the lights on/off for any luddites. :)
