Re: script to load ENTSOE day ahead electricity prices

Has anybody given thought to the fact that as of June this year, the prices will be quarterly instead of hourly? The script will need to be changed.

Re: Plugwise Adam

Has anyone managed to connect the Plugwise Lisa thermostat? I want one in each room but would like to read and set the temperature in each room through Domoticz.

Re: Kia and Hyundai plugin

I'm having trouble getting my plugin running. I am trying to connect an Ioniq 5 (2023 model). During the install everything went fine. I followed all the steps in the instructions and had no issues. I'm running the latest stable version of Domoticz (2024.7), Python 3.8 on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. 2024-08 ...

Re: SPRSUN Modbus plugin

Very nice looking script. I'm still using the outdated one from user Domoticx and having to assign new hardware for every register. Looking forward to start using this with my SPRSUN heat pumps.

Re: Daikin Hardware

I have a few Niko and Nous plugs that work well for me. I also have some Tuya ones, but they are luck of the draw if they work. They will connect to Domoticz through Zigbee2mqtt, but switch at random times on their own.

Re: Daikin Hardware

Mine want updates, but I'm not doing it. Who knows what will be blocked. For all we know, the new firmware disables the S21 connector on the circuit board. My units work fine as they are, so I'm leaving them alone.

Re: Python plugin: Modbus RTU / ASCII / TCP/IP

Good work Simon. I too had to change the preference table in the database with SQlite. Changed it back to 148 too. Seeing as you are using a different Modbus plugin than I am (a repo from user Domoticx), it seems the problems I was having with Modbus and the latest Domoticz version wasn't to blame ...

Re: script to load ENTSOE day ahead electricity prices

I was still thinking about this for a while and came to the conclusion that you have to deal with two sets of variables: price driven. You need to select the optimum (1, 2, 3 hour) time slots for loading/ unloading in the next x hours. Based on the device characteristics the most appropriate time ...

Re: Python plugin: Modbus RTU / ASCII / TCP/IP

Yes, 2021.1 was the last working version. I had the above issues too and although I looked into it to try and find out why this was happening, I just decided to run a 2021.1 version of Domoticz. In my case this is possible because I run this plugin on a dedicated remote server. It doesn't influence ...

Re: hourly electricity prices in domoticz (Netherlands)

I use Node-red to scrape the prices from a site and then inject them to user variables (24 of them). You need to define the user variables first (as float) so that you can fill in your own idx numbers for them. I split the flow into two pieces because the new rates are published at around 13.00 uur ...

Re: Python plugin: Modbus RTU / ASCII / TCP/IP

Anyone already found a way on how to upgrade domoticz to use the correct version of Python? Returning back to 2021.1 version is not an option due to missing build in plugins. I'm running Domoticz in a docker image on a synology system (DSM7.1). It's not about upgrading Domoticz to run the correct ...

Re: Python plugin: Modbus RTU / ASCII / TCP/IP

I ran into the same issue, it looks like a problem with the different versions. The plugin seems to depend on pymodbus, which seems to have been updated to version 3 to be compatible with python =>3.8 The site of pymodbus states: Note 3.0.0 is a major release with a number of incompatible changes ...
