This project includes a client/library to connect to Electrolux and AEG cleaner robots.
Tested with an AEX RX9 (aka purei9) first Generation and second (aka purei9.2) Generation.
In case you are just looking on using this, here are some links to alternative/related projects:
- https://github.com/Ekman/home-assistant-pure-i9 - Homeassistant integration based on this library
- https://github.com/Phype/home-assistant-pure-i9 (my fork which sometimes has newer versions of purei9_unofficial, but is generally less polished)
- https://github.com/JohNan/pyelectroluxgroup - Alternative python library which uses the new open API (https://developer.electrolux.one/)
- https://github.com/JohNan/homeassistant-wellbeing - Homeassistant integration based on the pyelectroluxgroup library
The developer of this software is not affiliated at all with Electrolux. Electrolux, AEG and Purei9 are brand/product names by Electrolux AB which i do not have any rights upon.
Install via pip
pip install purei9_unofficial
If you want to use the CLI (not only the library) you additionally need to install tabulate
pip install tabulate
The library currently implements 3 interfaces which allows controlling the robot: locally (via a TCP connection on port 3002), and via the 2 different electrolux cloud services. The interface which uses the first version of the electrolux cloud API is the one with the most features implemented currently.
See your robots status
$ python -m purei9_unofficial cloud -c user@email.com:mypassword status
+--------------------------+---------+----------+-----------+----------+---------+----------+-----------+
| id | name | localpw | connected | status | battery | firmware | powermode |
+--------------------------+---------+----------+-----------+----------+---------+----------+-----------+
| 900395798357985798375972 | Cleaner | 01234567 | True | Sleeping | High | 42.19 | HIGH |
+--------------------------+---------+----------+-----------+----------+---------+----------+-----------+
Start a cleaning session
$ python -m purei9_unofficial cloud -c user@email.com:mypassword start -r 900395798357985798375972
NOTE: Local mode seems to have been disabled for the purei9 and Purei9.2 models with a firmware update.
First you need to get your local robot pw from the cloud API to talk to the robot on a local connection. Note that this only works if your robot was initalized with the old purei9 App (not the "wellbeing" App).
$ python -m purei9_unofficial cloud -c user@email.com:mypassword status
+--------------------------+---------+----------+-----------+----------+---------+----------+-----------+
| id | name | localpw | connected | status | battery | firmware | powermode |
+--------------------------+---------+----------+-----------+----------+---------+----------+-----------+
| 900395798357985798375972 | Cleaner | 01234567 | True | Sleeping | High | 42.19 | HIGH |
+--------------------------+---------+----------+-----------+----------+---------+----------+-----------+
If when the above command is run, localpw is blank, you can reset it using the following instructions. This does not appear to interfer with the cloud connection as it does not use the localpw after set up. (Tested firmware version 42.19 on the first generation purei9, use at your own risk)
- Flip your purei9 onto its back.
- Connect your laptop to its network (Network Name: 3Dvision XXX-XXXX).
- Search its network to local its ip address (will be different to its normal ip on your home network).
$ python -m purei9_unofficial local find +---------------+--------------------------+---------+ | Address | RobotID | Name | +---------------+--------------------------+---------+ | 192.168.6.1 | 900395798357985798375972 | Cleaner | +---------------+--------------------------+---------+ - Run the setlocalpw command, the command below would set it to 01234567
$ python3 -m purei9_unofficial local -a 192.168.6.1 -l 01234567 setlocalpw - Flip the purei9 back over and put on charge.
- From here local commands should work.
Note there may be a small delay between the robot being put on its back and the network being available. As well as between putting it on charge and the local commands being available.
You can also use the tool to locate any robots in the network
$ python -m purei9_unofficial local find
+---------------+--------------------------+---------+
| Address | RobotID | Name |
+---------------+--------------------------+---------+
| 192.168.1.101 | 900395798357985798375972 | Cleaner |
+---------------+--------------------------+---------+
Now you can connect to your robot locally, get the status and start/stop it.
$ python -m purei9_unofficial local -a 192.168.1.101 -l 01234567 status
$ python -m purei9_unofficial local -a 192.168.1.101 -l 01234567 start
