Support for "cycles"?

[SaschaRH]

Hi,

when scheduling or starting a cleaning job using the MiHome app you can set the number of cleaning cycles.
Is there a way to set this via Homekit?

Thank you,
Sascha

Hi @SaschaRH, do you mean zone cleaning?

If so, in the array defining the zone, you can add a fifth element to the array to specify the number of times to sweep that square.

AFAIK, general cleaning and room cleaning don't support that option. Do they?

Hi @afharo,

room cleaning supports this too, while general cleaning does not. In the Xiaomi Home app you just select the rooms and the number of cycles. I noticed, that this not just adds another cleaning cycle, it also changes the way it cleans on the second cycle, that's why I'd like to use it.
