The Integration provides currently 3 services:
set_holiday Allows to set the start and end datetimes for the holiday mode
get_energy_balance Retrieves the overall energy consumption data for the year
get_energy_balance_monthly Retrieves the monthly breakdown energy consumption data for a moving 12 month window. 1 = January, 2 = February, etc...
The Heatpump only allows 2 sessions and there is not way to close a session. Sometimes you will get an error about the login. Just wait a few minutes and it should auto correct itself. Session usually time out within about 5 min.
The Heatpump will not always respond with data. This happens usually after the system changes status, e.g. start/stop the heating. There is not much we can do about this unfortunately. I try to cache the data in possible for a better UX.
