Amazon.de T9+ doesn't get detected #79

Closed yregaieg closed 2 years ago

yregaieg commented 2 years ago

Hello,

I tried setting up the plugin with a newly purchased T9+ from amazon.de but the plugin is unable to detect the robot.

I tried with homebridge-deebot plugin, and there I am able to connect, but there is only very limited set of features. Is there anything I can help you with in order to better support my robot model ?

Thanks :)

Hello,

For your model it is necessary that the plugin uses the latest version of the ecovacs-deebot.js library. I'll release version 0.7.0 soon. Currently it's still in beta. After release, you will need to reinstall this plugin to use this.

I tried with homebridge-deebot plugin, and there I am able to connect, ...

The homebridge-deebot plugin is already using the beta version (0.7.0-beta.3) of the library.

but there is only very limited set of features. Is there anything I can help you with in order to better support my robot model ?

What features are you missing?

Perfect, if you need someone to do some early testing, I can definitely build from sources and install to give you feedback.

That would indeed explain.

For now, I find it odd that the information about the robot is shown in a humidity sensor and a motion sensor, I would expect something more custom / accurate to not influence any automation I have based on such "real" sensors and still get that kind of status overview on the robot. I also didn't manage to setup areas / custom cleaning options... so the only action I have is to start/stop deebot, which always starts an automatic cleaning and tries to remap the whole house (taking a lot longer than it normally would to clean, and totally ignoring my area preferences ...)

@yregaieg

I just released version 0.7.0 of the library. You can reinstall this plugin now. Your device should then work properly.
