Homewizard Watermeter NOT selectable in the Energy Dashboard.

[malosaa]

The problem

I just received the watermeter, connected by cable.
I get readings trough the api itself.
ALso in home-assistant and Home Wizard app.

But no way to selecting it in the dashboard.

Also, is ‘Total liters’ available as entity in the device page? Maybe it is disabled somehow

SOrry for the late reaction, no that entity is there, only wifi strenght is disabled.

This is the total water entity its in there but renamed.

Also i did create a template, based on that other person what he posted on the forum.
That doesn't work either for selecting in the energy dashboard

I'm testing on 2 systems, same result.

[malosaa]

Here the total entity created by the HomeWizard integration

[DCSBL]

Maybe is has something to do with having less than 1 m3. It would be weird (or a bug) but this is the only thing that seems different in your case.

Currently I am not able to reproduce this, maybe you can try something with templates?

[malosaa]

I did try templates,

look at this one, i cant even select it.
and it has a high value.

This should basically work, and it won't show up in the selection menu.

I'm testing this on 3 systems.
1 - mariaDB recorder (recording everything)
2 - stock homeassistant recorder (recording everything)
3 - record only everything from HomeWizard.

On system 1 i Also i did re-pair the device and manual deleted everything.
On system 2 i reset the watermeter again and removed the HomeWizard integration and manually added it.
On system 3 i did manual discover, but it said the api was not enabled, but it was so i manual added it.

Still not in the selection menu of the water dashboard.

[malosaa]

Hehe i found the issue....
And it's kinda my fault tho.

Well when i did the repairing, the device name changed.
So my recorders did not record it, and it won't show up.

On my other system where the recorder records everything, still doesn't show up.. but i think its a problem on my end.

So the problem was that when u don't add this to the recorder to record, you can't select it in the dashboard.
So the namechange was the problem, when i did remove it manually from homeassistant, and i did forget to change it in my yaml file.
