Daikin "Bedarfssteuerung" available on local API (BRP069B41)?

Hi all,
I dont know Daikins translation of “Bedarfssteuerung” - it limits the power consumption of the AC unit.
I added a BRP069B41 to one of my Perfera FTXM-R .

The local API is called from openhab:
[ing.daikin.internal.DaikinWebTargets] - Calling url: http://192.168.1.85/aircon/set_control_info?mode=4&f_rate=7&shum=0&pow=0&stemp=27.5&f_dir=0

But there is no parameter to limit power consumption mapped within the daikin addon when looking at the java source.

Onecta app connected via BRP069B41 can limit the power consumption. But it does not use the local API…

Is the parameter missing in the addon because it is new with indoor units like Perfera?
Or does local API not support it?

Can you experiment and find out what needs to be added to the url in order to limit the power consumption?

If you can figure that out, I’ll be happy to add it to the binding.

This is the first time I’ve heard of such feature. I’m not sure if my aircon supports this (most likely it doesn’t).

I think its impossible to guess which parameter name daikin used - if present at all …

I tried to analyse network traffic between onecta app on my smartphone and the BRP069B41 adapter
and don’t see any direct communication.
Ok, onecta connects to the cloud, command to perfera are send through the cloud?
I blocked any internet traffic to perfera adapter in my Fritzbox.
Both adapters BRP069B41 and (still present) BRP069C4x are blocked.
Logs shows that connections cannot be opened to an internet host.
BRP069C4x calls cloud with http and gets as response Fritzbox blocking page.
BRP069B41 tries to open a TCP connection , SYN paket is answered with RST,ACK.
Some multicast traffic but payload contains only generic data.

As a test in onecta I changes FAN settings and Perfera changed the FAN accordingly - with some delay as usual.

192.168.1.85 is the Perfera address

192.168.1.20 is Onecta address.

FYI: Bedarfssteuerung:

(Its in german, there seams to be no language selection menu in the app - and editing profile fails …)
