D2CND with gateway DRGATEWAYAA #83

Open trailro opened 7 months ago

trailro commented 7 months ago

Hi all,

I know this is not really an issue, but I don't have anywhere else to ask this question.

I have a Daikin D2CND with gateway DRGATEWAYAA, but I am using Opentherm Evohome. So, at the moment, the DRGATEWAYAA is not plugged in the gas boiler. I am wondering if anyone here can tell me if I plug it in, keep using Opentherm with no Daikin thermostat, would this integration still work and provide api functionality (such as energy consumption - which is what I am interested in)? and would the gas boiler still work with opentherm as expected - the app won't work for sure as far as I tested.

Many thanks.

The Daikin thermostat is not required for the integration to function. As long as your gateway is plugged in, you should be able to get something out. The integration connects directly to the gateway, thus in theory, you should be able to read the energy consumption as long as your gateway is wired properly. Although I have not tested it with the model you have, other users have reported that it works successfully.

I am not too much familiar with the Opentherm and how you have connected it, so I might be wrong...

In my case the Gas Boiler would go in an error state if I power it on without the Thermostat (DOTROOMTHEAA) connected while also having the gateway (DRGATEWAYAA) installed.
