Miio , Roborock S5 Max , no auto discovery

karwak · May 16, 2020, 5:30pm

Hi all,

I started playing around with integrating my Roborock S5 Max vacuum cleaner into openHAB.

After installing the binding, and getting the token from the device, I got stuck now as the vacumm cleaner is not showing up in my inbox of openHAB…

Any hint what I’m doing wrong here?

I was expecting that openHAB at least discovers the device by itself…
I disabled the local firewall temporarily, with no change…

When adding the S5Max to a things file manually, I immediately get the error:

“Handler MiIoVacuumHandler of thing miio:vacuum:rrs5maxog tried updating channel consumables#consumable_reset although the handler was already disposed.”

How is discovery working for the miio binding?

I also doublechecked the output of “avahi-browse -a -t” , but could not find the vacuum cleaner in the list…
I also tried python “mirobo discover” without success…

Seems something general is wrong with my setup .

=> Any hint would be greatly appreciated!

PS: Searching through many many sites didn’t take me toward fixing it…

Thanks and regards

Hi all,

although I was hesitating to move from the Roborock app to the Xiaomi Mi Home app I finally gave it a try. Especially after reading some posts on another forum, where people reported problems with loosing the connection from day to day while using the Roborock app, I decided to switch over.

Immediately after registering the vacuum cleaner with the Mi Home app, things started to work out way better …

=> For whatever reason I don’t know yet, the S5 Max seems to behave differently when registered within the Mi Home app.

Differences I found are:

it showed up in the list of avahi-browse (mDNS)
It showed up in the inbox of openHAB
I was able to integrate it into openHAB by using a things file successfully

Now it seems to work and I look forward for some more adjustments of my configuration soon…

Few things I want to write down here for all those struggling with similar issues:

Although intensively trying for many days, I had no chance to get it working while the S5 Max was registered with the Roborock app
It was not listed with mDNS and therefore not shown, e.g. on the output of avahi-browse
Although I had extracted the token successfully, with a method that is applied during the WiFi setup of the vacuum cleaner, it was not accessible with the python-miio tools, e.g. mirobo —ip x.x.x.x —token xxxxx status
Nor it was auto-detected by openHAB with the miio binding installed
After deleting from the Roborock app and adding it to the Mi Home app, it immediately showed up in mDNS
It immediately was added to the inbox of openHAB
(And I took a note of the deviceID shown in the openHAB inbox to add it to the things file later)
It was pretty easy to extract the token from the .sqlite file of the smartphone backup, following one of the various descriptions found on the Internet, including using the python miio-extract-token tool against the file
With the token the S5 Max became accessible within openHAB and also with the python-miio tools
While registering the vacuum cleaner multiple times in the apps I found it to have a different token each time! (Just want to mention this as it did not become clear to me from all the infos I read.)

However, it seems to work for me now …

I just wonder why the S5 Max seems to behave so different on the network, and would greatly appreciate any comment that clarifies this finding.

thanks for sharing your experience… I think it is really helpful for others.
Quick hint on the tokens: adding your cloud userId/pwd in Openhab will pull the token automatically without the need for tool to pull it from sqlite

Thank you.
can you share the things and item files?
I’m having problems with configuring the thing.
I tried this:
Thing miio:vacuum:s50 “vacuum” @ “livingroom” [ host=“192.168.15.20”, token=“xxxxxxx”, deviceId=“0470DDAA”, model=“roborock.vacuum.s5e”, communication=“cloud”]

The errors are:
no viable alternative at input ‘model’
no viable alternative at input ‘communication’

Thanks

Hi Ahiel,
sorry for my late reply … I was pretty busy the last weeks.

However, here is what I have in my things file:

Thank you very much!

Openhab miio binding will find your device id.
I would not know a situation where it would not find it…

If yours is not found, you most likely are using the roborock app.
You will first need to switch to mihome app, before it will work with openhab
