Shelly Pro4PM and MQTT Python Plugin

[ChrisVH1982]

Hello,

Last week I reinstalled Domoticz, imported the existing DB and installed again latest MQTT Plugin for Shelly (https://github.com/enesbcs/Shelly_MQTT).

I just received a Shelly Pro 4 PM which according to the compatibility list is supported by the MQTT plugin. But buttons and power indicators won't turn up on Domoticz as they used to when I were to configure other Shellies. Anyone an idea what is the point?

Hi, @ChrisVH1982,

A quick view to the plugin, indicates that this one is made for Generation 1 Shelly devices, while your brand new Shelly Pro4PM is, as far as I know, a Generation 2 device.

Have a look at this thread: viewtopic.php?f=65&t=25656

Hi! The "Shelly4 Pro (relay)" is listed as supported device. So I was hoping that I can use it.

Hi @ChrisVH1982,

I do not own a Shelly Pro 4 PM, so I cannot tell you from practical experience.
I took the information from the README of the corresponding Node-RED node.
See: https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-shelly

I do not see it in the list, shown at https://shelly-api-docs.shelly.cloud/gen1/#wifi-modes
But I do find it here: https://shelly-api-docs.shelly.cloud/ge ... ellyPro4PM

Conclusion: this is a Gen 2 device

If I look to your plugin https://github.com/enesbcs/Shelly_MQTT, I do not see the Shelly Pro 4 PM mentioned.
I do see the

Shelly4 Pro (relay)*

But that is a different device.

As far as I know, a new plugin for Gen 2 Shelly devices does not exist (yet), so you might want to try the Node RED flow with that Gen 2 node or using MQTT.

Hi Mk,

i installed your script in the shelly. Switches are now coming up. But not the power meters.

Hi Mk,

true, bug. please take the latest version.

(if you would see updates only to power or only to energy, then most probably Shelly-MQTT's update limiter is kicking in (energy/power is one device and limiter passes only 1 change in 10sec. in that case try changing very last line of the script):

Code: Select all

Timer.set(12000, true, reportDevice, "power");

to

Code: Select all

Timer.set(24000, true, reportDevice, "power");
