Vaillant VWS 82/3: how to start hot water load/heating (quick command) #133

Closed mivola closed 5 years ago

mivola commented 5 years ago

Hi,

I have a Vaillant VWS 82/3 and want to use one of the quick commands and start hot water load.

Previously I had an old installation of ebusd (0.x) and used the command write short hw_load. Now I'm using ebusd 2.x and I'd like to do the same but I cannot find the right command to do so.

For reference I found a few information about the command in the old version: https://knx-user-forum.de/forum/öffentlicher-bereich/knx-eib-forum/diy-do-it-yourself/40632-ebusd?p=667850#post667850 https://knx-user-forum.de/forum/öffentlicher-bereich/knx-eib-forum/diy-do-it-yourself/40632-ebusd?p=676106#post676106

set;short;hw_load;Quick - WW Speicherladung;1;FE;B505;2;06;1;-;sd;1;bcd;1.000;-;-;-;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
bzw: 
set;short;hw_load;Quick - WW Speicherladung;3;50;B505;2;6;1;-;sd;1;bcd;1.000;-;-;-;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

I also found a few similar references in the latest config code: https://github.com/john30/ebusd-configuration/blob/89212e0531ae09306f996155092fef2cb378ed99/ebusd-1.x.x/vaillant_de/quick.csv#L7 https://github.com/john30/ebusd-configuration/blob/89212e0531ae09306f996155092fef2cb378ed99/ebusd-2.1.x/en/vaillant/quick.inc#L5

So I tried e.g. 

~ $ ebusctl write -c mc load on
done

and

~ $ ebusctl write -c mc load 1
done

and the result is always "done" but nothing happens in the hot water tank ... Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

If I trigger the hot water quick command directly from the Vaillant device, it works well. So I wonder if there is a way to listen to the command that gets send from this device?

Thanks a lot! Michael

since it is a hwc related action, you should be able to activate it with ebusctl write -c hwc load on

@john30 thanks a lot! Works very good! Just our of curiosity: is there a way I could have found the correct syntax on my own (based on the config files)?

you could have looked for which "load" messages are available using "ebusctl find -w load" and then you would have recognized that there are more of these on different circuits :)
