Hey, i got myself an AC0850/11 Air purifier. Unfortunately it seems it uses a different data format but also via COAP and the decryption also works. I might wanna try and add that to the binding but the link to the Github for Version 4.2 is dead. Can you maybe update that? Maybe you just forgot to push that branch. I occasionally see Data from in the logs with that version, the older versions do not seem to work as reliably with my purifier.
Thanks a lot

marcel_verpaalen · May 5, 2024, 6:37pm

yes, seems I have missed that.
pushed it now

marcel_verpaalen · May 5, 2024, 8:45pm

new version pushed.

I manage to build a .kar version with the latest, but still needed to manually
install coap and upnp transport

feature:install openhab-transport-upnp

Hello Marcel
I am a bit blind to find your philips binding latest vers. for OH 4.2. Can you please show me the way.
regards
Wolf

FireHAB · July 21, 2024, 10:46pm

Strange, in the marketplace only the version from last year can be found “2023-09-24 Version bump oh4”.

The links to the new .jar or .kar are not working. Should we use the old version?

marcel_verpaalen · July 22, 2024, 4:37am

Let me check what happened to the links/server.

marcel_verpaalen · July 22, 2024, 10:09am

I think I did something wrong indeed when last time updating the files.
Suggest to use this one https://www.verpaalen.com/openhab/org.openhab.binding.philipsair-4.1.2.jar it is the version I also use in my openhab instance.

If you need different version:
These are the files I have on the server (https://www.verpaalen.com/openhab/ ):
The most up2date version is the .jar And normally when I update I rename the existing .jar to [some number].jar

Thanks for the quick fix

Hi Marcel,
fist of all thank you for you work maintaining this binding.
Since my device is not discovered with the marketplace version, I tried installing the 4.1.2 Version manually.
Sady I run into this error message:

Do you have any clue how to fix it?

What version openhab are you running

MtotheKay · September 13, 2024, 7:42am

Hi Marcel,
thank you for the hint, I got rid of this error with an update to 4.2.1.
When installing the marketplace version, it still lists 4.0.4 in the sources.
I installed the Package with
bundle:install https://www.verpaalen.com/openhab/org.openhab.binding.philipsair-4.1.2.jar
Now I have the 4.1.2 version, clean logs and can also see some COAP activity on DEBUG.
Last thing I’m missing, is seeing the manually installed binding in the UI to create things with it. But I will search some more regarding that.

I just wanted to give an update/feedback that it the initial problem is gone.
