Re: soliscloud_to_domoticz

Hello, I've tried to get this working but the discussion here is very incomplete. I've copied the gut repo to a directory named "solis", done the chmod +r+x on solis.sh,entered my API details in the .cfg file and changed PVOutput to False and Domoticz to True . Do I need to comment out the API ...

Re: Python Plugin: MqttMapper

Thanks, I'll try the amended script shortly. And I'll need to enable Domoticz OS logging so I can see the entries around midnight. When I first started querying the remote data centre I tried requesting updates every minute but I kept getting locked out so I changed my crontab to run the script ...

Re: Python Plugin: MqttMapper

Not a clue, sorry. Therefore very grateful for your help. My MqttMapper.json: { "Elec": { "topic": "glowmarkt/elecconsumptiontoday", "key": "elec", "type": "243", "subtype": "31", "switchtype": "0", "options": {"Custom":"1;Electricity"}, "mapping": {"item": ""} } } And my eleccounter.lua file (as ...

Re: Python Plugin: MqttMapper

Hi again. It seems like the counter (I've called it PlainCounter here because I tried so many types) is sort of working but.... Except for the time periods when our electric vehicle is plugged in and charging (like it was today), the Usage Last 24 Hours seems to show lots of bars which are all the ...

Re: Python Plugin: MqttMapper

Thank you. The counter seems to be counting now. I'll keep an eye on it for a couple of days and see what happens.

Right, I'm trying that now. Let's see what happens. I've set the "Divider" to "1", default is "0". Is that correct?

Re: Python Plugin: MqttMapper

Sorry been away a few days. I've just tried creating the "Counter" virtual device as custom sensor and it asks for a name and an Axis Label. Then when I click on the edit button for the widget I can still only change the name, axis label and icon. There is no option to set the type to Energy or set ...

Re: Python Plugin: MqttMapper

Thanks again. So it looks like my MqttMapper bit is ok if I understand you correctly. On the issue of the counter, what I did was, create a hardware device of type "Dummy", then I clicked Create Virtual Sensors next to the new hardware and then I created a counter device of type "Counter". The types ...

Re: Python Plugin: MqttMapper

Thanks. Well first of all, in the mapping file, if I leave the topic line as per your suggestion (just "glowmarkt" ) then nothing happens when MQTT receives a new value to the topic. If I change the line to: "topic": "glowmarkt/elecconsumptiontoday", and publish a value of 208 to this topic (using ...

Possible. When I visit that page I get an 'all input parameters of the remote API are lost' After the weekend I will try and do some more work in it. Now I'm going enjoy a lazy sunday. Probably way too late for you EdwinK as I've only just experienced this. I was getting the Error: tinytuya ...

I've looked at the two versions of the plugin mentioned in this topic: https://github.com/lokonli/domoticz-wallbox https://github.com/sincze/domoticz-wallbox Which one should I use?

Re: Python Plugin: MqttMapper

Oh dear I was really excited and thought it would be so simple with a little bit of guidance. Any idea how they do it in Home Assistant with these values? The readme for the Glow2MQTT script makes it look easy with great graphics (see attachment) but I really don't want to use home assistant as I've ...

(For latest bullseye) Complete tar.gz published at: https://iot.sajatfelhom.eu/domoticz/ Just for the records: Raspberry Pi Zero W was launched in February 2017 so it is not a 12 year old hardware.

Re: Suddenly all sensors from the RFXtrx433 stopped working

All my devices are now zigbee, battery life is great and providing you have a few mains powered switches or sockets around which will act as repeaters the signal range is very good. Battery powered zigbee devices sleep until they need to send data however they all listen before sending so no data ...

Re: Suddenly all sensors from the RFXtrx433 stopped working

I'm afraid not, this was the reason I eventually got rid of all my 433Mhz stuff, even when all batteries are good there is no "listen before send" so everthing just transmits at it's own default time interval which always drifts so periodically 2 or more devices overlap and just cause corrupt data ...

Re: Suddenly all sensors from the RFXtrx433 stopped working

In most cases this is a bad sensor transmitting RF noise due to an almost empty battery (mostly a X10 MS13) or a weather sensor filled with water. See also chapter 20 in the RFXtrx User Guide. I've been having trouble with my three Oregon Scientific temp/humidity sensors (https://www.domoticz.com ...
