missing sensor ...
Alex-github-acc opened this issue · comments
Hello Tidone,
first I want to say "thank you" for your ETA project :-)
I want to add the temperature sensor of my oil heater unit:
Unfortunately I can't find it in the imported and selectable values.
Can you please tell me, what I'm doing wrong or how I may add it "manually"?
Kind regards, Alex
Hi Alex,
Could you share the outputs of your /user/menu and /user/api endpoints?
Just open http://<IP>:8080/user/menu in your browser, upload the text to https://gist.github.com, and share the link here.
For the api endpoint I just need the line starting with <api version= (it should be the second to last line)
If the temperature is shown on the display of your heater unit, it should also be selectable in the HA integration, unless it is an internal value of the heater, which is not exported via the API.
Thank you for your fast reply :-)
hope the attached file shows, what you have asked for ...
Btw, the temperature of the heater is shown in my display and I am able to import it to HA with the integration from nigl.
Best regards. Alex
There are a few temperature sensors available, which should all be available in this integration:
FWM -> Warmwasser -> Bereitschaftszeiten -> Temperatur
FWM -> Zirkulation -> Zirkulationszeiten -> Temperatur
FB (HK-1) -> Heizkreis -> Temperatur
HK (HK-2) -> Heizkreis -> Temperatur
Puffer -> Erzeuger Kessel/Puffer -> Ladezeiten -> Temperatur
... and so on
Which one do you not see in this integration?
It could be that the names are different from nigl's integration, depending on the ETA API version. For API v1.2 I'm using the names the heater unit provides, so they could be different.
Could you please also provide the diagnostics info?
For this you have to configure this integration, then go to the device page in Home Assistant, click on the 3 dots on the device info panel in the upper left corner, and click on Download diagnostics
First of all, thank you very much for your quick response and your commitment to helping me.
I am currently traveling (for work) and will answer you and send more details at the weekend.
Best regards, Alex
Some further information ...
I use a (32-year) old oil heater unit together with my ETA control (type GM-FC 0 and EM-C 7).
The idea is to switch my loading pump off, when the water temperature in the oi heater unit is lower as the upper temperature in the heat storage tank. And vice versus.
Therefore I use a thermal sensor from ETA in my old oil heater and have connected it in the ETA control unit.
The values of the temp. sensor [/120/10282/0/0/12361] are available in the ETA system, and also in HA when I use "nigl's / homeassistant_eta_integration".
But I can not find this value in your - more comfortable - fork... searched for it by name, value and characteristics ... nothing :-(
As I use at the moment nigl's integration I am not able to switch back to yours easily ... sorry I am a new in HA and not yet familiar with all possibilities ;-)
I would be very happy if you could help me
Best regards, Alex
I don't think this is a major bug in the integration, and it should be easy to fix.
Maybe one of my "optimizations" causes this sensor to be removed from the list of available sensors.
Could you please post the output of http://<IP>:8080/user/var/120/10282/0/0/12361 and http://<IP>:8080/user/varinfo/120/10282/0/0/12361?
Thx for your help :-)

Alright, I think I see the problem. The sensor has an empty unit descriptor, which causes the integration to remove it from the list of valid sensors.
I don't know why nigl's integration still shows the sensors, because I didn't change this validation much.
I will do some tests in the next few days to see if this is really the problem.
Edit: I think the burner is currently turned off because it shows a temperature of 0, right? Otherwise it wouldn't make much sense.
This (attachment) is the state with burner "on"

Thx a lot and have a nice weekend :-)
... and here a small sight in my automatisation:
Are you sure that's the correct sensor? Both cases show a value of 0.
You can see the value yourself if you look at the output of the /var/... endpoint.
The number at the end, right before </value>, is the one which is imported to HA.
I found another sensor, which should be the one from your graphs.
Could you post the output of http://<IP>:8080/user/var/120/10281/0/11183/0 and http://<IP>:8080/user/varinfo/120/10281/0/11183/0?
Good evening :-)
I checked the two offered possibilities ...
This one seems to work :

May I find it in your fork?
Greetings, Alex
You should be able to find it under the name Öl Viessmann -> Eingänge -> Brennertemperatur.
Please post the output of both urls if you don't find it.
I have now re-installed your fork and made adjusted in my automations.
... now I have to solve some details with my automations to control and integrate my oil-heater ;-)
