# SAICiSMART Binding
OpenHAB binding to the SAIC-API used by MG cars (MG4, MG5 EV, MG ZSV...)
It enables iSMART users to get battery status and other data from their cars. They can also pre-heat their cars by turning ON the AC.
Based on the work done here: https://github.com/SAIC-iSmart-API (opens new window)
# Supported Things
European iSMART accounts and vehicles.
account: Bridge representing an iSMART Accountvehicle: Thing representing an iSMART MG Car
# Discovery
Vehicle discovery is implemented. Once an account has been configured it can be scanned for vehicles.

# Limitations
The advanced channel "force refresh" if used regularly will drain the 12v car battery and you will be unable to start it!
Only European iSMART accounts and vehicles are supported. API host configuration and testing for other markets is required.
