Not able to control Zappi

Component Version 0.0.20

HA version

Bug description
This stopped working some days ago. I ran component version 0.0.18 when it stopped work. Now I upgraded to 0.0.20 but there is no difference.

I was able to control zappi. Now it seems like I set (every 60s) the status but nothing happens at zappi. Then a few seconds later the actual zappi status is read back into HA and changes the value I set.

Bottom line: I can read the status correctly but my set procedure does not take effect. Can this relate to HA 2022.8.7?

Are you getting an error when using the drop down to select an option saying the entity ID is missing ?
It's doing that for me today, and my automation on it is now referencing 'unknown state' so something changed somewhere and broke this.

If you're not getting an error and it seems to succeed but roll back after a minute, try it from the official app. If it's taking forever to apply then it might be connectivity issues between your charger and the hub, I had the same behavior until I moved mine inside the crawl space outside, just above the chargers. The signal does not go through walls and metal very well, I'm planning to just use the new ethernet board they released recently for the Zappi v2 instead here

Hi, No, I don't get any error messages, everything looks correct. When I set the state and for a short period of time it looks like (in HA) zappi actually changed state. But within a minute the state is back to the value which was set on the zappi box. I have searched all log files I'm familiar with but nothing. Yesterday I tried to update the hub but no changes there either. To me it looks like something is wrong with the messages going from the hub to zappi.

Yeah that sounds like the hub is too far from the Zappi, or at least that's the behavior I had when mine was in the house.

Did you try moving the hub closer, or confirming if the official app is slow to apply mode changes too ?

I moved the hub closer and that worked. Thanks for the support.😊 Den fre 16 sep. 2022 08:36Jerker Andersson ***@***.***> skrev:

No, I have not tried that. And that theory makes sense so now I have something to try this weekend... Thanks, I'll let you know the outcome.

Great! Had the same issue a few months ago myself.
You can probably close this issue then !
