Multi Floor Home Change Map

[dleggen]

I have a multi floor home and I am not able to figure out how to change the map being used. Can I do that in HA or do I need to use the roborock app?

See @humbertogontijo's reply that is more up-to-date than mine.

You can use a service call to change the map. Here is an example.

service: vacuum.send_command
data:
  command: load_multi_map
  params: 0
target:
  entity_id: vacuum.roborock_s7

The params contains the index of the map you want to load, starting from 0. The entity_id should be your vacuum.

Please note that there used to be a delay for the map to update in the integration (the command is executed but the map shown is not refreshed quickly). One way to be sure that the command is executed when testing this is to have your Roborock app opened next to you and see the map updating within seconds.

There have been multiple issues discussing the map not refreshing but I did not follow everything, maybe the issue is solved in the latest version.

Use the new service instead. It loads the map right away

service: roborock.camera_load_multi_map
data:
  map_flag: 0
target:
  entity_id: camera.roborock_s7_maxv

I just updated my config to use this service instead of the older one and it's working just fine, even faster to update the map than Roborock's app. Thanks!

When I call this:

service: roborock.camera_load_multi_map data: map_flag: 0 target: device_id: a88f4bcff546967f958472d3c2ba3332
Device_ID is my Roborock S7 it works.

But calling it with map_flag: 1
the error
Failed to call service roborock.camera_load_multi_map. Map flag 1 is invalid. Available map flags for device are {'Erdgeschoss ': 0
is shown.

I have 4 maps.

Any ideas?

Works now with:

• icon: mdi:alpha-o-box-outline
  tooltip: Obergeschoss
  tap_action:
  action: call-service
  service: roborock.camera_load_multi_map
  target:
  entity_id: camera.roborock_s7_pro_ultra_map
  service_data:
  map_flag: 3

Is there a way the get the map_flag as a condition within an automation?

Thank you.

In case this helps anyone else, as I was still slightly confused after reading these comments,
In my case im using the Lovelace Vacuum Map card.

When editing the card open the text editor (might have to click the Generate Static Config first), than at the bottom of the icons section I added

  - icon: mdi:numeric-0-box
    tooltip: Downstairs
    tap_action:
      action: call-service
      service: roborock.camera_load_multi_map
      service_data:
        map_flag: 0
      target:
        entity_id: camera.roborock_s7_map
  - icon: mdi:numeric-1-box
    tooltip: Upstairs
    tap_action:
      action: call-service
      service: roborock.camera_load_multi_map
      service_data:
        map_flag: 1
      target:
        entity_id: camera.roborock_s7_map

Which added 2 buttons to the card that let me quick swap between my 2 maps using the service outlined by @humbertogontijo

Restarting Home Assistant fixed this for me.

Thank you, works now.

And I would like to have a script which gives me a button "Clean Upstairs" with the following behavior:

• Wash the mob
• goto bottom of stairs
• change map to upstairs
• send notification to iPhone

Then I carry it upstairs and press button to clean on device.

Any ideas?

You gotta start somewhere. Do it step by step. Break down the Problem.

• Send Command to wash the mob
• wait untill it is done
• goto command to desired position
• wait until done
• send notification to phone with action: Change Map (https://companion.home-assistant.io/docs/notifications/actionable-notifications)
• When the action is selected, change map

Allow for errors to happen and react to them.
For example when the battery is low, would you want to continue (and fail) or abort and send a notification.

[Fuchschr11]

Thank you, that I know...
But what is the command for "washing the mob"?
What's the trigger for "waiting until mob washing is done?
The rest I know.

Thank you.
