Hi, I would like to understand how to make serial connection on my Ecodan and I would also know if I can keep Wifi interface connected in order to use both melcloud and this custom script.

Thanks

Hi @maurizioI This is something I have not yet tried but it should be possible to connect both the wireless interface and another system as long as they are not transmitting at the same time. The wireless interface issues commands every minute so there is a window of several tens of seconds to perform other communication. It would also be wise to ensure the voltage of the serial lines is consistent between all devices to avoid damaging any of the hardware.
