EcoGeo with pCOWeb #7

Open danielo1990 opened 4 days ago

danielo1990 commented 4 days ago

Hi,

I`m using an ecogeo with a pCOWeb Interface instead of the EasyNet. I saw, that the EasyNet addresses of the functions are the same, as the Modbus addresses. i tried the IP-Adresse of the pCOWeb Interface, but it didn´t work. Is there any way, to use the pCOWeb Interface instead of the EasyNet? Does this integration communicate over an API or ModBus? Is there a way, to make it work?

Greetings Daniel

This integration works with the API exposed by EasyNet, which just reads/writes modbus registers via get/post requests. I have no idea how pCOWeb works and no plans to integrate it.

The pCOWeb is only a Modbus TCP Interface. I think I will try to configure the adresses in the Modbus integration of HA and look if it works. I think, that it works in the same way as the easy net in the background, but without an api. I have tried some adresses from the official EcoForest address list and they work. But in the adress list of the EasyNet are much more adresses. To integrate the pCOWeb, the integratien would have to send the Modbus commands directly over Modbus TCP.

Then, yes, it will be easier to use a regular modbus integration. You can check out this and this to get more info about registers
