I have installed ebusd add-on and set the adapter as network device and it works ok. Although it seems the (read) values take quite a long time to refresh over MQTT. I wonder if this is the best solution or if there is a better way.
Hi @Elijen , yes, this is probably the best solution. How long is "quite long" ?
It can take 30 minutes or longer to get an update of a specific value. Do you know how long does it take ebus to get all the values from the heat pump? I haven't figured out how to refresh a specific value manually via MQTT yet so I am relying on the polling interval which is set to 5s meaning it refreshes all the parameters one by one I think (but I am not sure).
Hi, it seems this has nothing to do with the adapter. I haven't been using the mqtt protocol so I cannot help here. Try to check the ebusd documentation.
@danielkucera Yup, you are right. Thanks anyway. The adapter is really great 👍
Can you give a more detailed description on how to integrate with home assistant and secure the device in the network? So nobody else can add values except the connected HA? Maybe Password?
What is the recommended way of integrating the ebus adapter into HA? I didn't find a way to configure MQTT on the device so I suppose I have to use another ebusd instance on the HA server to communicate with ebusd on the device?
