Elfin EW11 #130

Hi,

I have connected Elfin EW11 RS485 - Wifi device to my Nilan EC9.

I had to install Nilan integration manually by copying the files. HACS download gave me an error about the HA version, I didn't know how to fix it.

I'm trying to use TCP settings but I don't know the right port or the device ID?

I can find the device in my local network with IP address. I can see that Serial Port has traffic.

I connected the device like so: (Wire colors are from my installation) (This cabel goes from Nilan EC9 to CTS602) Red: +10vdc, connect here the EW11 + Blue: GND, connect EW11 - Yellow: +1Vdc, connect EW11 A White: +3Vdc, connect EW11 B

  1. Im not sure if your bridge device is supported.

  2. The current version does not work yet. Install older version via HACS

Hi,

I have no experience on your bridge device, but with a quick google it is supposed to work.

This mode is what you need. Ports is what you want default 502, also Unit ID is what you set at both ends, default 30.
