Update.
Tried to run the failed script couple times and I've got different results:
pyplumio.exceptions.UnknownDeviceError: Unknown sender type (80)
pyplumio.exceptions.UnknownDeviceError: Unknown sender type (87)
pyplumio.exceptions.UnknownFrameError: Unknown frame type (137)
Got response (44 bytes): UIDResponse(recipient=<DeviceType.ALL: 0>, sender=<DeviceType.ECOMAX: 69>, econet_type=252, econet_version=50, message=b'\x000\x00\x0b\x00\x03\x00\x18\x111270B20\x00\x02\x00\x0eecoMAX860D3-HB', data={'product': ProductInfo(type=<ProductType.ECOMAX_P: 0>, id=48, uid='8921I88Z3ECHH24C000Z0', logo=48, image=2, model='ecoMAX 860D3-HB')})
These 4 randomly change
Hi,
Thank you for the feedback and sorry for delayed response.
Despite it's name UnknownDeviceError
isn't really an error per se, it's serves more as a warning, that PyPlumIO encountered a frame from the unknown device, that it can't process. It is normally ignored by the AsyncProtocol
and logged only on the DEBUG
log level here. It doesn't affect operation of frame producer at all, as it simply continues onto next frame, that it hopefully can process.
The script from other issue that you've mentioned is simply too low level and doesn't have a mechanism to cope with it. It's why you only get issues with that script and not diagnostics.py which internally uses AsyncProtocol
.
Here I updated it for you:
"""Collect a single frame and dump it on screen."""
import asyncio
import sys
import pyplumio
from pyplumio.const import DeviceType
from pyplumio.frames import requests, responses
# Set host and port here.
HOST = "localhost"
PORT = 8899
async def main() -> int:
"""Collect a single UID frame and dump it on screen.
We'll use DummyProtocol here, since we'll need direct control over
connection and access to a raw ecoMAX frame.
"""
async with pyplumio.open_tcp_connection(
host=HOST, port=PORT, protocol=pyplumio.DummyProtocol()
) as connection:
print("Requesting UID from the ecoMAX...")
await connection.writer.write(requests.UIDRequest(recipient=DeviceType.ECOMAX))
print("Waiting for response...")
while connection.connected:
try:
if isinstance(
(response := await connection.reader.read()),
responses.UIDResponse,
):
print(f"Got response ({response.length} bytes): {response}")
break
except pyplumio.ProtocolError:
# Continue reading next frame in case of protocol errors.
pass
sys.exit(asyncio.run(main()))
Notice that now we catch pyplumio.ProtocolError
and simply continue reading next frame instead of completely failing. Protocol errors to a certain extend can be safely ignored, since sometimes broken or unknown frames do happen in RS485 and should NOT be treated as unrecoverable.
Hi again,
A couple of more things to note, that I've apparently missed in your issue description, due to being sick.
While UnknownDeviceError
is probably not an error that is causing you a problem with timeouts, the presence of it can in fact indicate that you're getting malformed frames.
You see, PyPlumIO (PIO) frame reader uses fail-fast approach to error handling. In this approach we check a frames in order from least to most expensive checks. While this allows to fail frame early with least amount of wasted resources, this also makes it a bit harder to debug, since errors such as UnknownDeviceError
can mean that PIO encountered frame from the unknown device, but it can also mean that whole frame was malformed. We just didn't bother to check checksum, since checksums are expensive and even if it's correct PIO wouldn't know what to do with frame from the unknown device anyways.
Since you've indicated in your issue description that you've only got ecoMAX connected to the network and nothing else, PIO shouldn't have encountered any unknown devices. So it this case the real issue is probably stems from PIO getting malformed frames from your device, which means there's possibly issue with your HW (converter settings or even RS485 wires not being properly attached). I'd start debugging this issue from hardware standpoint first.
Is there an existing issue for this?
I'm having the following issue:
Hello,
I am having issues with connecting to the boiler. Noticed initially in home assistant integration (timeouts) and after some digging I've found an error message in pyplumio.
Unknown sender type (80)
I have tried the script to get data from the ecomax (https://gist.github.com/denpamusic/5df805524738ea1bb9c00d25ed351c46) without any issues. Attaching file ecomax_data.json
But when I tried to test another script I found in other issue here I got the unknown sender error again.
Would you please try to help me where should I look?
Tried:
Only change I made at home before this happened was that I changed the router (from old mikrotik to newer mikrotik) but it shouldn't be the issue I believe.
Thank you
My environment is:
I have following devices connected:
I'm connecting to my devices using:
