Panasonic H, J, K & L Series Aquarea air-water heat pump protocol

This project makes it possible to read information from Panasonic Aquarea heat pump and report the data either to an MQTT server or as JSON format over HTTP.

Eine deutschsprachige README_DE.md findest du hier. \ Een nederlandse vertaling README_NL.md vind je hier. \ Suomen kielellä README_FI.md luettavissa täällä.

Help on translation to other languages is welcome.

Current releases

Latest release is available here. The ESP8266 compiled binary can be installed on a Wemos D1 mini, on the HeishaMon PCB and generally on any ESP8266 based board compatible with Wemos build settings (at least 4MB flash). You can also download the code and compile it yourself (see required libraries below). The ESP32-S3 binary is for the newer, large, version of heishamon.

Using the software

HeishaMon is able to communicate with the Panasonic Aquarea H, J, K and L&series. Confirmed by users types of HP you can find here \ If you want to compile this image yourself be sure to use the mentioned libraries and support for a filesystem on the esp8266 so select the correct flash option in arduino ide for that.

When starting, without a configured wifi, an open-wifi-hotspot will be visible allowing you to configure your wifi network and your MQTT server. Configuration page will be located at http://192.168.4.1 . \

After configuring and booting the image will be able to read and talk to your heatpump. The GPIO13/GPIO15 connection will be used for communications so you can keep your computer/uploader connected to the board if you want. \ Serial 1 (GPIO2) can be used to connect another serial line (GND and TX from the board only) to read some debugging data.

All received data will be sent to different MQTT topics (see below for topic descriptions). There is also a 'panasonic_heat_pump/log' MQTT topic which provides debug logging and a hexdump of the received packets (if enabled in the web portal).

You can connect a 1wire network on GPIO4 which will report in seperate MQTT topics (panasonic_heat_pump/1wire/sensorid).

The software is also able to measure Watt on a S0 port of two kWh meters. You only need to connect GPIO12 and GND to the S0 of one kWh meter and if you need a second kWh meter use GPIO14 and GND. It will report on MQTT topic panasonic_heat_pump/s0/Watt/1 and panasonic_heat_pump/s0/Watt/2 and also in the JSON output. You can replace 'Watt' in the previous topic with 'Watthour' to get consumption counter in WattHour (per mqtt message) or to 'WatthourTotal' to get the total consumption measured in WattHour. To sync the WatthourTotal with your kWh-meter, publish the correct value to MQTT to the panasonic_heat_pump/s0/WatthourTotal/1 or panasonic_heat_pump/s0/WatthourTotal/2 topic with the 'retain' option while heishamon is rebooting. Upon reboot, heishamon reads this value as the last known value to you can sync using this method.

Updating the firmware is as easy as going to the firmware menu and, after authentication with username 'admin' and password 'heisha' (or other provided during setup), uploading the binary there.

A json output of all received data (heatpump and 1wire) is available at the url http://heishamon.local/json (replace heishamon.local with the ip address of your heishamon device if MDNS is not working for you).

Within the 'integrations' folder you can find examples how to connect your automation platform to the HeishaMon.

Rules functionality

The rules functionality allows you to control the heatpump from within the HeishaMon itself. Which makes it much more reliable then having to deal with external domotica over WiFi. When posting a new ruleset, it is immidiatly validated and when valid used. When a new ruleset is invalid it will be ignored and the old ruleset will be loaded again. You can check the console for feedback on this. If somehow a new valid ruleset crashes the HeishaMon, it will be automatically disabled the next reboot, allowing you to make changes. This prevents the HeishaMon getting into a boot loop.

The techniques used in the rule library allows you to work with very large rulesets, but best practice is to keep it below 10.000 bytes.

Notice that sending commands to the heatpump is done asynced. So, commands sent to the heatpump at the beginning of your syntax will not immediatly be reflected in the values from the heatpump later on. Therefor, heatpump values should be read from the heatpump itself instead of those based on the values you keep yourself.

Syntax

Two general rules are that spaces are mandatory and semicolons are used as end-of-line character.

Variables

The ruleset uses the following variable structure:

When a variable is called but not yet set to a value, the value will be NULL.

Variables can be of boolean (1 or 0), float (3.14), integer (10), and string type. Defining strings is done with single or double quotes.

Events or functions

Rules are written in event or function blocks. These are blocks that are triggered when something happened; either a new heatpump or thermostat value has been received or a timer fired. Or can be used as plain functions

on [event] then
  [...]
end

on [name] then
  [...]
end

Events can be Heatpump or thermostat parameters or timers:

on @Heatpump_State then
  [...]
end

on ?setpoint then
  [...]
end

on timer=1 then
  [...]
end

When defining functions, you just name your block and then you can call it from anywhere else:

on foobar then
  [...]
end

on @Heatpump_State then
  foobar();
end

Functions can have parameters which you can call:

on foobar($a, $b, $c) then
  [...]

on @Heatpump_State then
  foobar(1, 2, 3);
end

If you call a function less values then the function takes, all other parameters will have a NULL value.

There is currently one special function that calls when the system is booted on when a new ruleset is saved:

on System#Boot then
  [...]
end

This special function can be used to initially set your globals or certain timers.

Operators

Regular operators are supported with their standard associativity and precedence. This allows you to also use regular math.

Parenthesis can be used to prioritize operators as it would work in regular math.

Functions

on System#Boot then
  setTimer(3, 60);
end

on timer=3 then
  [...]
  setTimer(3, 60);
end

Conditions

The only supported conditions are if, else, and elseif:

if [condition] then
  [...]
else
  if [condition] then
    [...]
  end
end
if [condition] then
  [...]
elseif [condition] then
  if [condition] then
    [...]
  else
    [...]
  end
elseif [condition] then
  [...]
else
  [...]
end

Examples

Once the rules system is in used by more and more users, additional examples will be added to the documentation.

Calculating WAR

on calcWar($Ta1, $Tb1, $Ta2, $Tb2) then
    #maxTa = $Ta1;

    if @Outside_Temp >= $Tb1 then
        #maxTa = $Ta1;
    elseif @Outside_Temp <= $Tb2 then
        #maxTa = $Ta2;
    else
        #maxTa = $Ta1 + (($Tb1 - @Outside_Temp) * ($Ta2 - $Ta1) / ($Tb1 - $Tb2));
    end
end

Thermostat setpoint

on ?roomTemp then
    calcWar(32, 14, 41, -4);

    $margin = 0.25;

    if ?roomTemp > (?roomTempSet + $margin) then
        if @Heatpump_State == 1 then
            @SetHeatpump = 0;
        end
    elseif ?roomTemp < (?roomTempSet - $margin) then
        if @Heatpump_State == 0 then
            @SetHeatpump = 1;
        end
    else
        @SetZ1HeatRequestTemperature = round(#maxTa);
    end
end

Factory reset

A factory reset can be performed on the web interface but if the web interface is unavailable you can perform a double reset. The double reset should be performed not too fast but also not too slow. Usually halve a second between both resets should do the trick. To indicate that the double reset performed a factory reset, the blue led will flash rapidly (You need to press reset again now to restart HeishaMon back to normal where a WiFi hotspot should be visible again).

Further information

Below you can find some technical details about the project. How to build your own cables. How to build your own PCB etc.

Connection details:

Communication can be established thru one of the two sockets: CN-CNT or CN-NMODE. If you have an existing Panasonic CZ-TAW1 WiFi interface that you want to replace with HeishaMon, it is only a matter of plugging the cable out from CZ-TAW1 and reconnecting to your HeishaMon device. However it is not possible to use HeishaMon and the original CZ-TAW1 module together as an active device. It is however possible to put HeishaMon on "Listen Only" mode which will allow HeishaMon and the original CZ-TAW1 module to co-exist. The only downside to this is that HeishaMon is unable to send commands and use the optional PCB option.

Communication parameters: TTL 5V UART 9600,8,E,1 \ \ CN-CNT Pin-out (from top to bottom) \ 1 - +5V (250mA) \ 2 - 0-5V TX (from heatpump) \ 3 - 0-5V RX (to heatpump)\ 4 - +12V (250mA) \ 5 - GND \ \ CN-NMODE Pin-out (from left to right) \ "Warning! As printed on the PCB, the left pin is pin 4 and right pin is pin 1. Do not count 1 to 4 from left! \ 4 - +5V (250mA) \ 3 - 0-5V TX (from heatpump) \ 2 - 0-5V RX (to heatpump) \ 1 - GND

HeishaMon will receive power from the Panasonic over the cable (5v power).

Long distance connection

It it possible to connect the HeishaMon over a long distance. Up to 5 meter is working with normal cabling. For longer distances a TTL-to-RS485 configuration as show in the picture below is possible. The however requires HeishaMon to be powered externally using 5v power (for example from an USB cable).

Where to get connectors

RS-Online orders

Conrad orders

Use some 24 AWG shielded 4-conductors cable.

The HeishaMon hardware itself

The PCB's needed to connect to the heatpump are designed by project members and are listed below. The most important part of the hardware is a level shifting between 5v from the Panasonic to 3.3v of the HeishaMon and a GPIO13/GPIO15 enable line after boot. \ PCD Designs from the project members \ Picture Wemos D1 beta \ Picture ESP12-F

To make things easy you can order a completed PCB from some project members: \ Tindie shop from Igor Ybema (aka TheHogNL) based in the Netherlands

MQTT topics

Current list of documented MQTT topics can be found here

DS18b20 1-wire support

The software also supports ds18b20 1-wire temperature sensors reading. A proper 1-wire configuration (with 4.7kohm pull-up resistor) connected to GPIO4 will be read each configured secs (minimal 5) and send at the panasonic_heat_pump/1wire/"sensor-hex-address" topic. On the pre-made boards this 4.7kohm resistor is already installed.

Large board relay control

The newer, large, heishamon contains two onboard relays which can be switched on and off using MQTT commands. The relays can be used for any contact switching, even 230V mains (max 5A). For example to switch the 230V contacts in the heatpump for controlling the 'external thermostat', switching a pump on or off or other lower power devices. I do not recommend to use the relay as a switch for a electric heater as they use too much power. To control the relay just send a value of 1 or 0 to the MQTT topic "panasonic_heat_pump/gpio/relay/one" for relay one or "panasonic_heat_pump/gpio/relay/two" for relay two.

Opentherm support

If your heishamon board supports opentherm the software can also be used to bridge opentherm information from a compatible thermostat to your home automation over MQTT or JSON and as mentioned above it can also be connected directly in the rules to connect opentherm information to the heatpump and back, for example to display the outside temperature from the heatpump on your opentherm thermostat. If you enable opentherm support in settings there will be a new tab visible in the web page. On that tab you will see opentherm values. Some are of type R(ead) and some are W(rite), and some are both. Read means that the thermostat can read that information from the heishamon. You provide that information over MQTT (or using the rules) by updating this value on the mqtt 'opentherm/read' topic, for example 'panasonic_heat_pump/opentherm/read/outsideTemp'. The write values are information from the thermostat, like 'roomTemp'. These are available on mqtt topic 'opentherm/write'. You can use these values to change the heatpump behaviour in anyway you want using your home automation and mqtt set-commands to heishamon on using the internal rules.

The available opentherm variables are:
