BSB-LAN Binding

This binding uses the REST API of BSB-LPB-PPS-LAN (opens new window) to obtain data from the device.

Supported Things

Currently the binding supports the following thing types:

Thing Type	Description
bridge	Represents the BSB-LAN device.
parameter	Represents a single parameter available at the BSB-LAN device.

Discovery

There is no discovery implemented. You have to create your Things manually and specify the hostname/IP of the BSB-LAN device in the Bridge.

Binding Configuration

The binding has no configuration options, all configuration is done at Thing level.

Thing Configuration

Bridge Thing Configuration

Property	Default	Required	Type	Description
host	-	Yes	String	The hostname or IP address of the BSB-LAN device.
port	80	No	Integer	The port where the BSB-LAN device is listening.
passkey	-	No	String	The passkey required to access the BSB-LAN device.
username	-	No	String	The username required to access the BSB-LAN device (when using HTTP Basic Authentication).
password	-	No	String	The password required to access the BSB-LAN device (when using HTTP Basic Authentication).
refreshInterval	60	No	Integer	Specifies the refresh (poll) interval in seconds. Minimum value: 5s

Parameter Thing Configuration

Property	Default	Required	Type	Description
id	-	Yes	Integer	Specific parameter identifier (numeric value)
setId	value of id	No	Integer	Parameter identifier used for set requests (numeric value). If not specified it falls back to the value of the id property.
setType	SET	No	String	Message type used for set requests. Possible values are: INF or SET. If not specified or unknown it falls back to SET.

Note: If you would also like to use the binding to set parameter values, ensure you have flashed the BSB-LAN adapter in write mode (see your BSB_lan_config.h)

Channels

Parameter Thing Channels

Channel ID	Item Type	Description
name	String	Name of the parameter as provided by the BSB-LAN device.
number-value	Number	Value of the parameter converted to a numerical value (if possible). The value is published as DecimalType(int) for values of datatype DT_ENUM and DecimalType(double) otherwise.
string-value	String	Value of the parameter as provided by the BSB-LAN device.
switch-value	Switch	Value of the parameter. 0 is interpreted as OFF, everything else as ON.
unit	String	Unit as provided by the BSB-LAN device (HTML unescaping applied).
description	String	Description as provided by the BSB-LAN device.
datatype	Number	Datatype as provided by the BSB-LAN device. Possible values are currently 0 for DT_VALS: plain value 1 for DT_ENUM: value (8/16 Bit) followed by space followed by text 2 for DT_BITS: bit value followed by bitmask followed by text 3 for DT_WDAY: weekday 4 for DT_HHMM: hour:minute 5 for DT_DTTM: date and time 6 for DT_DDMM: day and month 7 for DT_STRN: String 8 for DT_DWHM: PPS time (day of week, hour:minute)
