# Broadlink Binding
The binding integrates devices based on broadlink controllers.
As the binding uses the [broadlink-java-api](https://github.com/mob41/broadlink-java-api), theoretically all devices supported by the api can be integrated with this binding.
## Supported Things
_Note:_ So far only the Floureon Thermostat and Rm Mini 3 devices has been tested! The other things are "best guess" implementations.
| Things | Description | Thing Type |
|-------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------|
| Floureon Thermostat | broadlink based Thermostat sold with the branding Floureon | floureonthermostat |
| Hysen Thermostat | broadlink based Thermostat sold with the branding Hysen | hysenthermostat |
| Rm Mini | broadlink based Universal Controller sold with the branding Rm Mini | rmuniversalremote |
## Discovery
Broadlink devices are discovered on the network by sending a specific broadcast message.
Authentication is automatically sent after creating the thing.
## Thing Configuration
Two parameter are required for creating things:
- `host`: The hostname or IP address of the device.
- `macAddress` : The network MAC of the device.
The autodiscovery process finds both parts automatically.
## Channels
### Floureon-/Hysenthermostat
| Channel Type ID | Item Type | Description |
|-------------------------------|--------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
| power | Switch | Switch display on/off and enable/disables heating |
| mode | String | Current mode of the thermostat (`auto` or `manual`) |
| sensor | String | The sensor (`internal`/`external`) used for triggering the thermostat|
| roomtemperature | Number:Temperature | Room temperature, measured directly at the device |
| roomtemperatureexternalsensor | Number:Temperature | Room temperature, measured by an external sensor |
| active | Switch | Show if thermostat is currently actively heating |
| setpoint | Number:Temperature | Temperature setpoint that open/close valve |
| temperatureoffset | Number:Temperature | Manual temperature adjustment |
| remotelock | Switch | Locks the device to only allow remote actions |
| time | DateTime | The time and day of week of the device |
### RM Mini Universal Controller
| Channel Type ID | Item Type | Description |
|-------------------------------|--------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
| learningmode | Switch | Put device in infrared learning mode when turned on |
| savelearned | String | Saves the learned keys using the provided name |
| sendlearned | String | Send previously learned keys by name |
