# Belkin Wemo Binding

This binding integrates the Belkin WeMo Family (opens new window). The integration happens either through the WeMo-Link bridge, which acts as an IP gateway to the ZigBee devices or through WiFi connection to standalone devices.

# Supported Things

The WeMo Binding supports the Socket, Insight, Lightswitch, Motion, Dimmer, Coffemaker and Maker devices, as well as the WeMo-Link bridge with WeMo LED bulbs. The Binding also supports the Crock-Pot Smart Slow Cooker, Mr. Coffee Smart Coffemaker as well as the Holmes Smart Air Purifier, Holmes Smart Humidifier and Holmes Smart Heater.

# Discovery

The WeMo devices are discovered through UPnP discovery service in the network. Devices will show up in the inbox and can be easily added as Things.

# Binding Configuration

The binding does not need any configuration.

# Thing Configuration

For manual Thing configuration, one needs to know the UUID of a certain WeMo device. In the thing file, this looks e.g. like

wemo:socket:Switch1 [udn="Socket-1_0-221242K11xxxxx"]

For a WeMo Link bridge and paired LED Lights, please use the following Thing definition

Bridge wemo:bridge:Bridge-1_0-231445B01006A0 [udn="Bridge-1_0-231445B010xxxx"] {
MZ100 94103EA2B278xxxx [ deviceID="94103EA2B278xxxx" ]
MZ100 94103EA2B278xxxx [ deviceID="94103EA2B278xxxx" ]
}

# Channels
