No mqtt message outgoing

[HarterHorst]

Hi, i have a problem with outgoing mqtt messages. Button is recognised, but no mqtt message is generated.

Any ideas?

Config file

# the general section defines parameter for the mqtt broker and the enocean interface [CONFIG] enocean_port = /dev/ttyAMA0 log_packets = 1

mqtt_host = 192.168.0.2 mqtt_port = 1883 # the prefix is used for the mqtt value names; this is extended by the sensor name mqtt_prefix = enocean/ # optionally also set mqtt_user and mqtt_pwd

# all other sections define the sensors to monitor

[Schalter] address = 0xFEF9591B rorg = 0xF6 # BS1 func = 0x02 type = 0x01

I see two issues:

• the logging shows that all received packets are learn requests. Learn requests are not published on mqtt. See https://github.com/romor/enocean-mqtt/blob/edd0e24/enoceanmqtt/communicator.py#L75
• the defined Schalter has an EEP profile which is not present in the used enocean library. See https://github.com/kipe/enocean/blob/49c32fc/enocean/protocol/EEP.xml. For my own switching actuators I use: rorg = 0xf6, func = 0x02, type = 0x04

[HarterHorst]

I clearly missed some important basics regarding the protocol. Do you have a shortcut?

What do I have to do to make my Eltako FT55 (PTM215 DB) sending non-learning requestsel? Any hints and links appreciated.

[romor]

I also would not expect that teach-in requests are sent by a switching actuator. Maybe this discussion could also be raised in the enocean library (https://github.com/kipe/enocean), which parses the RF packet.

hi, i found the same problem, followed the bug description to the originating library and issue-discussion. but i am puzzled. i did not get it, if there was a solution or only discussion .... maybe one could post here, if there is a solution to this problem of the etako switch.. thanks

[ozett]

i have limited enocean knowledge, just started. i followed to the lib: https://github.com/kipe/enocean changed the hardcoded /dev/AMA0 to my usb200 /dev/ttyUSB0 and let it running. no messages of learning mode. looks good. 😁

my conclusion: somewho it is working.. but why not mqtt messages? still a bug? a missing feature?

the enocean lib seems ok for the entako switch ...

anybody with a hint?

[romor]

I think this topic is still open. The enocean library sets the learn flag as a default and the maintainer will not change this (#66).

This library does not emit mqtt messages on learning requests but only on "normal" messages.

[ozett]

maybe one more post to clarify this?

as i trigger the switch with the library-tools, i see some infos about the button-click, but nothing about the "learing" mode.

with yout tool using the library, i see something about "learing" mode. and if if follow the issue on the library-thread, the reasons seems that there is a "profile" missing..

i dont know how to implement such a profile, but maybe that could help`?

[romor]

The enocean lib sets the learn bit but does not log this. A new profile will not help.

If you are willing to test this I can add an option to also forward learn requests to mqtt.

[ozett]

Yes, please.

if you implement forwarding, than i could test if the button press in the default (learning) state of my eltako ft55-rw (which includes the enocean ptm 215) would be send to mqtt.

that would solve my simple case...: "button-press -> mqtt-message" 😁

[romor]

Commit d2dea8e introduces a new config file option log_learn. If this is set for a specific sensor, this will also forward learn packets to mqtt.

Please give feedback whether this works for you as I do not own such a device for testing.

[ozett]

hey, wonderful. thanks. i will see if i can test this tomorrwo or on the weekend. as soon as is have a result, i will report back here.

I assume this can be closed now.
