# Daikin Binding
The Daikin binding allows you to control your Daikin air conditioning units with openHAB. In order to do so, your Daikin air conditioning unit must have a BRP072A42, BRP072C42 or BRP15B61 WiFi adapter installed.
# Supported Things
Daikin air conditioning units with a BRP069B41, BRP072A42, BRP072C42 or BRP15B61 installed. This may work with the older KRP series of wired adapters, but has not been tested with them.
# Discovery
This add-on will broadcast messages on your local network looking for Daikin air conditioning units and adding them to the queue of new items discovered. You can also manually add a new item if you know the IP address.
# BRP072C42 adapter discovery
A BRP072C42 adapter requires a registered UUID to authenticate. Upon discovery, a UUID will be generated but the adapter's key must be entered in the Thing configuration to complete the UUID registration.
# Thing Configuration
host- The hostname of the Daikin air conditioner. Typically you'd use an IP address such as192.168.0.5for this field.refresh- The frequency with which to refresh information from the Daikin air conditioner specified in seconds. Defaults to 60 seconds.
# Additional Thing configurations for BRP072C42 adapter
secure- Must be set to true for BRP072C42 to access it through https.uuid- A UUID used to access the BRP072C42 adapter. A handy UUID generator can be found at https://www.uuidgenerator.net/ (opens new window).key- The 13-digit key from the Daikin adapter.
# Channels
