Error setting up entry Anna for plugwise - type conversion

[bart1970]

The problem

When starting Home Assistant, I get a type error in the Anna plugin log. The integration is not set up. For exact error message, see the error log below.
I have been using the integration for a long time. In the 2022.3 release, it is not working anymore.

After reading #67687 I cannot make out if they are related.

What version of Home Assistant Core has the issue?

2022.3.0-2022.3.3

What was the last working version of Home Assistant Core?

2022.2.x

What type of installation are you running?

Home Assistant Supervised

Integration causing the issue

Anna Plugwise

Hey there @CoMPaTech, @bouwew, @brefra, @frenck, mind taking a look at this issue as it has been labeled with an integration (plugwise) you are listed as a code owner for? Thanks!

Thanks for creating this issue! As a first check, do you have a (outdoor!) temperature reading on your Anna (e.g. setup your zipcode)? Looking at the error it isn't set (and probably something to improve on), but we would like to know how/why it's at None.

[bart1970]

Hello,

I think I set this up somewhere in NL, not my home location. The. "Weerstation" of Anna contains: Geo-coordinates 52,6. Weerstation: Velp.
The Anna outdoor temperature is on my dashboard, so it used to be there.

Now also performed a test with adding my own zipcode and then restarting home assistant, but the same result.

If you want me to change any configuration to see if this helps, or If I need to fetch some data, just let me know.

@bart1970 What kind of heating(/cooling) device is connected to you Anna?
Also, do you happen to have an Adam as well?

[bart1970]

Hello, during my morning walk, I realized I missed to add that indeed.

I'm running an Elga version of the Anna.
Currently, my Anna integration contains 3 devices:

• Anna
• Elga
• Smile Anna

The Elga also contains an outdoor entity: sensor.elga_outdoor_temperature.

Maybe this is the one that creates the problem?

Ah no, the Elga also contains a number of parameters that you can set. I think cooling_activation_outdoor_temperature is one of them. (Dutch: Warmtepomp gaat in koelingsmodus boven een buitentemperatuur van).
I have never seen this one in Home Assistant.

Thanks, that explains a little bit why this error is happening: we've been working on improving the plugwise integration with respect to heat pumps and cooling functionality. But as we don't have an Elga in our own systems, we cannot test. So there could be bugs, and here is one.

Would you please capture the data of your system as indicated here: https://github.com/plugwise/python-plugwise/tree/main/userdata
Scroll down to the Sharing topic for detailed instructions.

Also, we need to know, have you activated the cooling function? Or not?
