no eBUS signal with Protherm Skat #49

Hardware:

NodeMcu v1.0 Protherm Skat 9

Using all the defaults and RX/TX pins I get the following status:

Chip ID: 007a55a0
Hostname: ebus-7a55a0
Up time: 72
Free heap: 34736
ebusd connected: no
eBUS signal: no signal
eBUS initial signal: echo

And heater fails to f.49 error, according to manuals description is Short circuit on the eBus, overload on the eBus or on the eBus 2 of a voltage source with different polarity.

Any ideas how to debug this?

UPD: I've just found a note that voltage on EBUS should be 15-24 Volts, not sure how to properly archive this. UPD: Looks like I miss the ebus adapter, it wasn't clear for me that ESP can't drive the bus directly.

yes, you need an adapter like this to gain access to the bus signal

Thanks, I've already placed my order!
