# GrundfosAlpha Binding
This adds support for reading out the data of Grundfos Alpha Pumps with a Grundfos Alpha Reader (opens new window)
The reverse engineering of the protocol was taken from https://github.com/JsBergbau/AlphaDecoder (opens new window).
# Supported Things
mi401: The Grundfos MI401 ALPHA Reader
# Discovery
All readers are auto-detected as soon as Bluetooth is configured in openHAB and the MI401 device is powered on.
