Maintenance Flags?

[jtscott]

Hi Zak,

Awesome job on this service! I got the docker container up and running without issue. Just wanted to ask if you can help identify the roomba's maintenance flags like bin full, rollers blocked, sensors dirty, etc?

Thanks!

See the Dorita980 project for the flags, this link: https://github.com/koalazak/dorita980#cleaning-preferences-flags-table-firmware-166

Hi Roel,

Those are cleaning preference flags used to configure the type of cleaning the roomba performs. Reflected here: mission: '{"nMssn":56,"done":"ok","flags":1025,"sqft":583,"runM":111,"chrgM":0,"pauseM":6,"doneM":0,"dirt":0,"chrgs":0,"saves":1,"evacs":0,"pauseId":0,"wlBars":[100,0,0,0,0]}', cleanSchedule: '{"cycle":["none","none","none","none","none","none","none"],"h":[9,9,9,9,9,9,9],"m":[0,0,0,0,0,0,0]}',

I would like to be able to capture when the roomba needs maintenance like bin full. I think this is reflected in the robot status but am not sure what these specific flags mean: robot_status: '{"flags":4,"cycle":"none","phase":"stuck","pos":{"theta":-160,"point":{"x":848,"y":65}},"batPct":13,"expireM":0,"rechrgM":0,"error":18,"notReady":15,"mssnM":117,"sqft":583}',

Hi @jtscott, sure i can help! are you making a table for 'flags' field in http://localhost:3000/api/local/info/mission ? If not, please sendme your flags number when roomba is full, when rollers are blocked, detecting dirty spots, when clean chair legs or border the house, etc.

Then i can make the bit mask for that flags and add this feature to dorita980. My initial and quick research found strange things. For example:

• flags: 0 when is full charged, docked and ready
• flags: 4 when is full charged, docked and ready (same as above)
• flags: 12 when make sounds like resuming or starting

thanks!
