Gardena Smart System

After last update of mower firmware there are some issues with the binding:

  1. mower is shown “offline” in Paper UI in menu Configuration > Things. When opening the mower entry in this menu it shows “status: OFFLINE - COMMUNICATION_ERROR”. Luckily, the mower and the binding is working fine apart from this cosmetic problem.

  2. as partly pointed out here, two properties are no longer provided by Gardena, rechargeable_battery_status and internal_temperature. Thus, warnings are generated when using the current binding and appear in the log. Four new properties are now provided by Gardena but are not accessible in the binding.

  3. the property rechargeable_battery_status has been removed in the binding and further edits have been performed on GitHub. I tested the 2.3.0 snapshot binding in my 2.2. distro using this approach. However, the binding does not initialize, connection to Gardena account fails with permanent status “initializing”.

Any update to the binding will be greatly appreciated, if I can help by testing please let me know.
