Read out external room sensors

[Murmillox]

Hello

thank you for your great work.

is there a way to read external room sensors "ftf"?

Like this (sensor 1 and 2)

That would interest me too. I couldn't read it myself via modbus.

I don't have any external sensor on my device so I can't test it but can you read out the values with eazyctrl package?

[Murmillox]

Yes that's works

@Murmillox can you query v01071? Based on the docs it returns the name of the first external temp/humidity sensor.

[laszlojakab]

Does anyone have CO₂ or VOC sensor?

[laszlojakab]

Temperature and humidity added here (not tested, any feedback would be great): https://github.com/laszlojakab/homeassistant-easycontrols/tree/feat/add-external-sensors

VOC and CO₂ sensors not added yet (unit of measurement need to be find out).

[laszlojakab]

VOC and CO₂ also added.

I use the sensors (temperature and humidity) FTF1 and FTF2.

Unfortunately, these two sensors do not work with the new software version. In the home assistant, the sensors are listed as "deactivated entities". If I "activate" them, they are displayed but their value is "unknown".

All other FTF, VOC and CO2 sensors that I do not have are in the same state.

Update: I found the error. The entities are missing in the "coordinator.py" file. You have to enter them twice here.

=> approx. lines 20 and 160. copy in: VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_CO2_1, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_CO2_2, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_CO2_3, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_CO2_4, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_CO2_5, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_CO2_6, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_CO2_7, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_CO2_8, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_FTF_HUMIDITY_1, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_FTF_HUMIDITY_2, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_FTF_HUMIDITY_3, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_FTF_HUMIDITY_4, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_FTF_HUMIDITY_5, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_FTF_HUMIDITY_6, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_FTF_HUMIDITY_7, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_FTF_HUMIDITY_8, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_FTF_TEMPERATURE_1, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_FTF_TEMPERATURE_2, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_FTF_TEMPERATURE_3, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_FTF_TEMPERATURE_4, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_FTF_TEMPERATURE_5, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_FTF_TEMPERATURE_6, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_FTF_TEMPERATURE_7, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_FTF_TEMPERATURE_8, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_VOC_1, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_VOC_2, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_VOC_3, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_VOC_4, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_VOC_5, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_VOC_6, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_VOC_7, VARIABLE_EXTERNAL_VOC_8,

@Murmillox sorry, that has already been fixed but I forgot to push it to github. Try it now please.

Are you sure you uploaded it now? It's still not working for me.

[laszlojakab]

@Murmillox Yes I have uploaded it. Do you have any error message in logs?

Hello Laszlo

Your version is not working properly. I have attached 2 log files for you. One LOG with your version and one with mine (similar to the post from 08/09/24). I have also attached my version of "coordinator.py" in the email. (Changed the file extension from .py to .txt so that it reaches you safely - please change it back)

Please do the following Open both logs and look for the variable "v00111" => "External FTF humidity 1" in both (similar to the post from 03/12/23). => You won't find it in yours. You will find it in mine.

Snipping from your version: (it doesn't works) [image: image.png]

Snipping from my version: (it Works) [image: image.png]

Please swap your version for mine or add the entry from the post from 08/09/24.

Many thanks for your work!
