# Bosch Indego Binding

This is the Binding for Bosch Indego Connect lawn mowers. Thank´s to zazaz-de who found out how the API works. His Java Library (opens new window) made this Binding possible.

# Discovery

When the bridge is authorized, the binding can automatically discover Indego mowers connected to the SingleKey ID account.

# Thing Configuration

# account Bridge Configuration

There are no parameters for the bridge. However, the bridge is used for managing the SingleKey ID (opens new window) digital identity.

# Authorization

To authorize, please follow these steps:

  • In your browser, go to the Bosch Indego login page (opens new window).
  • Select "Bosch ID", enter your e-mail address and password and click "Log-in".
  • In your browser, open Developer Tools.
  • With developer tools showing on the right, go to Bosch Indego login page (opens new window) again.
  • "Please wait..." should now be displayed.
  • Find the authresp and copy the code: com.bosch.indegoconnect://login/?code=<copy this>
  • Use the openHAB console to authorize with this code: openhab:boschindego authorize <paste code>

# indego Thing Configuration

serialNumber The serial number of the connected Indego mower yes
refresh The number of seconds between refreshing device state when idle 180 no
stateActiveRefresh The number of seconds between refreshing device state when active 30 no
cuttingTimeRefresh The number of minutes between refreshing last/next cutting time 60 no

# Channels

Channel Item Type Description Writeable
state Number You can send commands to this channel to control the mower and read the simplified state from it (1=mow, 2=return to dock, 3=pause) Yes
errorcode Number Error code of the mower (0=no error)
statecode Number Detailed state of the mower
textualstate String State as a text.
ready Number Shows if the mower is ready to mow (1=ready, 0=not ready)
mowed Dimmer Cut grass in percent
lastCutting DateTime Last cutting time
nextCutting DateTime Next scheduled cutting time
batteryVoltage Number:ElectricPotential Battery voltage reported by the device1,2
batteryLevel Number Battery level as a percentage (0-100%)1
lowBattery Switch Low battery warning with possible values on (low battery) and off (battery ok)1
batteryTemperature Number:Temperature Battery temperature reported by the device1
gardenSize Number:Area Garden size mapped by the device
gardenMap Image Garden map created by the device3

1) This will be updated every six hours when the device is idle. It will wake up the device, which can include turning on its display. When the device is active or charging, this will be updated every two minutes.

2) Currently for some models the channel batteryVoltage is populated with the same value as batteryLevel. For these models batteryLevel should be used instead of batteryVoltage.

3) This will be updated as often as specified by the stateActiveRefresh thing parameter.
