Panasonic Comfort Cloud Binding

This binding integrates most Panasonic Comfort Cloud air conditioners. It should work with any model supported by the Panasonic Comfort Cloud mobile app. It does not support the Aquarea line.

Supported Things

This binding supports Panasonic Air Conditioners/heat pumps that are connected to the internet via WiFi and can be controlled via the Panasonic Comfort Cloud app.

• account = Panasonic Comfort Cloud Account - the account bridge
• aircondition = An air conditioner or WiFi dongle

Discovery

In order to do discovery, add a thing of type Panasonic Comfort Cloud API (account) and add username and password.

Thing Configuration

See full example below for how to configure using thing files.

account

• username = Same as you use in the mobile app (mandatory)
• password = Same as you use in the mobile app (mandatory)

Advanced configuration:

• appVersion = Override the automatically fetched latest (mobile) app version. Only use if automatic failure occurs.
• refreshInterval = Number of seconds between refresh calls to the server (optional)

aircondition

• deviceId = id of air condition device (mandatory)

DeviceId can be found printed on side or back of the device. Or you can find it during discovery.

Devices with built-in WiFi support appears to use format 'MODEL+SERIAL' while devices with a separate WiFi dongle usually only uses the 'SERIAL' part.

Finding the correct deviceId for use in thing files

If you are using thing files: Device discovery will create a modified thingUID that follows the openHAB requirements. In order to find the correct deviceId to use in thing files, check discovered thing properties.
