Closed limkinZero closed 10 months ago

Hi Richard,

First of all, thank you. You are doing very good work. I've checked the source code of file ehal_hp and i see that you collect flow rate info. What does this info mean? This param show the flow rate in litres/minute of water pump?

case GetType::FLOW_RATE:
                status.FlowRate = res[12];
                break;

Then, i haven't seen that you publish that info to mqtt. This is so?

Yes, I believe the value is in l/min.

Yep, it would need to be added to publish_homeassistant_auto_discover() and publish_entity_state_updates() in ehal_mqtt.cpp. I think originally I planned to add it to the data displayed on the status web pages of the ESP32, but early in development I had a lot of memory shortage problems serving the HTTP content so those pages only display a small amount.

Note: Was added in PR #6, so I'll close this off.
