```
Make sure your robot is on the Home Base and powered on (green lights on).
Then press and hold the HOME button on your robot until it plays a series of tones (about 2 seconds).
Release the button and your robot will flash WIFI light.

This process often fails.
Please check the following points and try several times.
- Is the environment installing Rumba and homebridge connected to the same wifi?
- Is Rumba in the Dock and in a charged state?
- Please try running "npm run getrobotpwd 192.16.xx.xx" after the sound has sounded after pressing the home button of the room for 2 seconds
- Please check the version of Node.js. I confirmed that it works with "v 7.7.1".
