Python Plugin: ebusd

[Barberousse]

10 seconds, I know it's little but it always worked before without any error

But now, with last beta and last plugin, I try to watch for timeout. Would you increase your refresh rate to 60s for instance, to see if the problem disappears? Depending on your feedback, I may relax the timeout condition.

Ok, I changed the value, I test a little longer and I tell you.

By cons, even with a value of 60s I feel that my widget is much less updated (up to 5 minutes and more for other). For a temperature reading, I think it's a lot

Could you try version 1.2.4? Temperature are not changing that quickly I think, but it depends on your needs...

By the way, I still have 4 PCB of eBus USB Adapter (https://www.mikrocontroller.net/topic/346833), I can send remaining ones for free to the first ones that send me a stamped envelope, send me a private message if interested.

So,

With 60s, no timeout errors but before, for the temperature, it seemed to me that the update of the widget was done more regularly. There, for example, the last update goes back to 1h

I'll test 1.2.4 and i'll tell u

There, for example, the last update goes back to 1h

On the versions starting 1.2.2, updates are sent to Domoticz only on refresh time AND if the device value has changed, it prevents domoticz database overloads, and it makes more sense, for instance for a selector switch, instead of filling the database with the same value every x seconds.

Hello,

Maybe a stupid question but can you make changes to the boiler with this hardware/plugin?

How does it look like in Domoticz?

There is no stupid question.

Yes you can, some parameters or the boiler are read/write, for instance:

Sometimes it's difficult to understand what are the parameters for, but I can help, do you have a specific need?

[Lachris]

Wow it looks nice

Can you set the day and night tempeture on the boiler for the heating.

Can you turn on the boiler when you need it?

Example if you have a room that needs heating, it turns on the boiler and valve get set to max?

My biggest problem is i still need the hardware

I guess it depends on your specific boiler model. On mine, I can set it with f47:Hc1DayTemp f47:Hc1NightTemp for my first heating circuit but cannot find the temperature registers for the mixing circuit of my second heating zone:

In my dzVents script example, I switch between holidays and normal mode depending on a virtual switch "Mode absence" where I use Domoticz planning feature.

You can also switch between auto/night/on/summer mode for each heating circuit with f47:Hc1OPMode for 1st zone and mc:InternalOperatingMode470 for 2nd zone on my installation. This can be done using dzVents or Blocky scripts or from interface:

After disconnected ebus i have bug:

Hello,

What do you mean by "after disconnected ebus", can you be more specific on the way to reproduce the bug ?

Thank you.

[fantom]

I'm not sure. I do not remember.
I stopped ebusd daemon or disconnected ebus wire or disconnected ebus converter board form RPi.

Ok, I'll see what I can do in next version, not an easy one though, when telnet is forced disconnected, it seems to be done asynchronously with the hearbeat function...

Could you try version 1.3.0?

Hello,
my ebusd plugin keeps me reminding:

raspberrypi:Domoticz Plugin Updates Available for ebusd bridge
ebusd bridge has updates available!!

I have installed plugin throug Python plugins manager. How can I update it, through PPM?

Thank you,
Michal

I have installed plugin throug Python plugins manager. How can I update it, through PPM?

I don't use PPM, but it should be automatic... I see that you asked the question on PPM thread too, but no answer yet, I guess I have to test PPM myself, last time I wasn't very successful.

[Barberousse]

I have installed plugin throug Python plugins manager. How can I update it, through PPM?

Now I remember, I already pushed a patch because PPM doesn't work on some git versions or on localized versions, cf. here: https://github.com/ycahome/pp-manager/pull/8

I was during May, it's still not merged, it seems that the project is dead.

solved! You just need to repeat the installation procedure - it was working for me.

Hello, I also use the ebusd plugin.Great work!!! Everything has worked so far.

The two entries

Code: Select all

mc:OperatingMode hwc:OperatingMode

provided each a selector-switch, with the working buttons for mc: "Auto, Eco, Heizen, Absenken, On" and for the hwc: "Off, On, Auto" (I do not remember the order).

Now I have removed all my tested components and created all needed again. Now the two entries deliver a selctor-switch in the devicelist, but the switches are created as normal-switches (without buttons).

I have tried:
to remove all devices
Remove hardware in the list
Restart Domoticz
all sorts of other entries

What am I doing wrong?
