[FR]: Allow Automated Control/Cycling of Border Cut Settings for Worx Vision Models (e.g., WR206E) #876
Description
Describe the feature you wish to make a request for
The Worx Landroid Vision models (specifically tested with the WR206E) have limitations regarding the "Cut to Edge" feature, even with recent firmware updates introducing the "Cut Over Border" option
Currently, achieving a perfectly clean edge often requires manual intervention and changing settings between runs, as no single setting consistently cuts the entire border area without leaving strips of uncut grass or causing the mower to struggle against physical boundaries.
Based on manual testing, cycling through different border cut settings across multiple runs can solve this issue and result in a clean edge.
I propose enhancing the landroid_cloud integration to allow users to control these specific border cut parameters via Home Assistant services. This would enable users to create automations that automatically adjust the settings for sequential border cut routines.
Ideally, there would be dedicated services or modifications to existing services to set the following parameters before initiating a border cut:
cut_over_border: true or false (to enable/disable the "Cut Over Border" feature available in the Worx app).
border_distance_cm: An integer value (e.g., 5, 10, 15, 20) representing the desired distance in centimeters when cut_over_border is false.
This would allow an automation sequence like the following:
Run 1: Call service to set cut_over_border: true -> Start border cut.
Run 2: Call service to set cut_over_border: false, border_distance_cm: 10 -> Start border cut.
Run 3: Call service to set cut_over_border: false, border_distance_cm: 20 -> Start border cut.
Describe alternatives you've considered
As a minimum viable solution, exposing the ability to set these specific parameters (cut_over_border toggle and border_distance_cm) via the landroid_cloud.send_raw service would also be sufficient. This would allow users to build the necessary automation logic within Home Assistant themselves, provided the correct JSON payload structure for the raw command is known or discoverable.
Additional context
Mower Model: Worx Landroid Vision WR206E
Problem: Incomplete edge mowing, leaving strips of grass despite using available settings.
The "Cut Over Border" feature helps but doesn't cover the entire edge strip left by the standard mowing pattern, and can cause issues with physical borders.
Goal: Achieve a fully automated and clean border cut by programmatically changing settings between runs.
