Company

Bosch is a trademark of Robert Bosch Smart Home GmbH. This site is not related to Bosch in any way, see the disclaimers.

Details

This article covers the Smart Home subsidiary of Bosch, since they offer FRITZ!Box compatible ZigBee devices.

Registration

This will explain the registration of a Bosch Zwischenstecker kompakt BSP-FZ2, a smart ZigBee power socket.
AVM lists it to be compatible, but it requires an installation code to be registered with a FRITZ!Box or the Smart Gateway.

Neither the package nor the socket provides this information. All that's included is a self adhesive QR-code.
The Bosch Smart Home App simply scans it to register the device to a Bosch Smart Home Controller.

However, FRITZ!App Smart Home does not provide this functionality (yet?) and the Webinterface offers text fields for the
intallation code and the EUI-64 MAC address of the device. Now it gets complicated!

A standard QR-code scanner decodes the code to a 95-character string:

RB01SG0D831018264800300000000000000000000CAE5FFFFE3ABAFEDLK292F74D0A710A2B998675CBD00922866BC6E

Let's split it:

RB                #  2 chars - Robert Bosch
 01               #  2 chars
SG                #  2 chars - Smarthome GmbH
 0                #  1 char
D                 #  1 char
 8310182648003000 # 16 chars
 0000000000000000 # 16 chars
 0CAE5FFFFE3ABAFE # 16 chars - EUI-64
DLK               #  3 chars
 292F74D0A710A2B9 # 16 chars - Installation Code part 1
 98675CBD00922866 # 16 chars - Installation Code part 2
 BC6E             #  4 chars - Installation Code part 3

The 16-char EUI-64 is easy to find since it has a FFFE in the middle of a normal MAC address.
The 36-char Installation Code is the end of the string.

In other words: The 16 chars before DLK are the EUI-64, the 36 chars after DLK are the Installation Code.

I created an IPPF-Thread about this topic (german, but you can post english there).
