Devices are added via the discovery function. Per registered Kia a KiaDevice or per registered Hyundai a HyundaiDevice is discovered unless the device is already in the config.
The automatic generated Id must not change. Its the unique reference to your car. You can change the Pimatic device name after you have saved the device. For the Pimatic KiaDevice ID and Name the Kia Nickname is used. The vin and attributes are generated automaticaly and should not be changed.

There are 2 timers, pollTimePassive and pollTimeAtive. The polling switches to pollTimeActive when the engine is set to on or the airco is turned on or when te battery is charging. If all those 3 conditions are false the polling switches to pollTimePassive. This mechanism prevents unnecessary status polls.

The car can be controlled via rules

The action syntax:
`
bluelink [start $startOptionsVariable | startDefault | stop |
lock | unlock | chargeStart | chargeStop | refresh ]
`
Commands:
- start: this command starts the climate control of the car with options defrost, windscreenHeating and temperature
- stop: ends the start action
- lock: locks the doors
- unlock: unlocks the doors
- chargeStart: start charging (when pluggedIn)
- chargeStop: stop charging
- refresh: refresh the car status data

The $startOptionsVariable syntax is a string variable with the following format:
`
[defrost:[true|false]] | [windscreenHeating:[true|false] | [temperature:number]
`
You can change by name the default settings, for 1, 2 or all 3 options.
Use 'startDefault' is you want to remote start the airco with the device defaults.
You can use an expression for the $startOptionsVariable. In this expression variables can be used.

An example: $startOptionsVariable:
`
"temperature:$temp-variable,defrost:$defrost-variable,windscreenHeating:$windscreenHeating-variable"
``
(use the double quotes when you add the expression in the startOptionsVariable)
