The compatible Blackstar pellet burners are written in readme section "Compatible Pellet Burners". Currently there are no support for v16 burners.
Oh... Okay.. 🥺 Is there a possibility that you can add V16? 😊
Yeah it's possible that someday i will buy this pellet burner in the near future and will add support for it :)
Hi I have tried to look at the data from my v16 from stokercloud - I can access data from this URL here https://stokercloud.dk/v16bckbeta/dataout2/controllerdata2.php?token=f47c1a5b69dea2a8cce8c52193fb0d94fdd41f61774a2355323fa3548d8a34ade70b3750d24bc23d521835c405e36ade644af999e26052c22f29d67c18ed2953adacdfbd00c3ad84c988ae0fa1b694fa82fde466e19deb653ecdea95daff9edc
I do not know if that help you update your HA addon?
I have tried to create a sensor in HA ex boilertemp - the sensor is created - but no data is displayed :(
My sensor look like this: sensor:
nbe-blackstar-homeassistant does not use any external APIs, it directly connects to the pellet burner and queries or sends commands directly to it (using reverse engineered protocol implementation from https://github.com/motoz/nbetest). This lets the home automation systems be more isolated and work in internal intranet or home that is not even connected to the outside world (internet). This software main purpose was to work with different home automation systems, like OpenHab, IoBroker, Node-Red. I did not target it especially for Home Assistant, it just exports a required objects to the MQTT broker and listens for an events that are send to the same MQTT broker and sends requests to the pellet burner (acts like a bridge). There are no difference what home automation system you are using, it just needs to support home assistant mqtt based auto discovery protocol. So for support another protocols and different versions you need to look at src frames.py and protocol.py implementations.
Hi
I have installed the nbe-blackstar-homeassistant on a RPI3 and it starts fine, it also seems that it connects to my MQTT on my home assistant, but I do not get any updates to my sensors in Home assistant - they are all "unknown"
I assume when I get the new sensors in my Home assistant then the connection between my RPI4 running the add-on and Home assistant is OK.
But how to I see if the add on is receiving data from my pellet burner? is V16 not supported?
