Temp sensors not updating and different to value shown on climate entity #91990

breendan · 2023-04-25T06:45:33Z

The problem

For the past few months I have noticed the temperature sensors provided by this integration don't update. Restarting Home Assistant or updating the sensor precision causes a refresh and the values change but otherwise they stay stuck on the last value.

The issue is with both the internal and external temps. The internal temp reported through the climate entity updates fine but not the sensor entities.

I have deleted the integration and reinstalled but no joy.

I've reviewed the debug logs but nothing obvious. It reports the sensor refresh intervals.

Any ideas?

What version of Home Assistant Core has the issue?

core-2023.4.6

What was the last working version of Home Assistant Core?

No response

What type of installation are you running?

Home Assistant OS

Additional information

When I click the Diagnostic information download it gives me the info for the Unifi integration and not the Daikin one sorry.

Hi, for what it’s worth I’m also experiencing the same issue. Appreciate any support to fix this issue. Thanks

breendan · 2023-05-16T09:58:47Z

I have created a workaround by pulling the values directly from the heatpump itsself. Here is a snip of my sensor code:

# Daikin AC temp sensors because integration doesnt work
- platform: rest
  name: Heat Pump Raw Data
  resource: 'http://{device_ip}/aircon/get_sensor_info'
  value_template: '{{ value }}'
  
- platform: template
  sensors:
    living_room_inside_temperature:
      value_template: "{{ states('sensor.heat_pump_raw_data').split(',')[1].split('=')[1] | float(0) }}"
      device_class: temperature
      unit_of_measurement: "°C"
      friendly_name: Living Room Temp
      
    living_room_outside_temperature:
      value_template: "{{ states('sensor.heat_pump_raw_data').split(',')[3].split('=')[1] | float(0) }}"
      device_class: temperature
      unit_of_measurement: "°C"
      friendly_name: Outside Temp

But hopefully the integration can be fixed shortly :)

Shep084 · 2023-05-16T10:36:26Z

Thanks for sharing. I’ll have a look.

I’ve also been trying to find a work around. I created a temporary solution, but hopefully the automation can be fixed.

See below, I created an automations to reload all entity if it’s stuck in the same temperature for more than 4 hours.
This appears to fix the issue.

alias: Office Outdoor Temp Reset
description: ""
trigger: - platform: state
entity_id:

sensor.office_outside_temperature
for:
hours: 4
minutes: 0
seconds: 0
condition: []
action:
- service: homeassistant.reload_all
  data: {}
  mode: single

breendan · 2023-05-17T07:18:06Z

That's clever. I found mine would only update upon restart or reload of the integration. Do you get more frequent updates or does this effectively give you a new value every four hours?

sjwright · 2023-05-19T04:27:39Z

Can also confirm. Only reloading the integration updates the values.

Shep084 · 2023-05-21T23:15:28Z

After more playing around I’ve realised my automation doesn’t fix the issue.
The only way I can get it resolved is to restart home Assistant.

@fredrike Any update on a resolution

@fredrike Any update on a resolution

No, it is hard to see what's causing this. I need to see full logs with loglevel NOTSET for both pydaikin and the http-lib.

fakemoth · 2023-05-25T05:35:41Z

I can only confirm this issue, noticed it a couple of months ago and quietly hoped it will be fixed. Unfortunately it wasn't. For me is only the second sensor, the external/outside one. The one in the room seems to be OK. Got things like this in the log:

fredrike · 2023-05-25T08:39:16Z

The external/outdoor sensor is only active when the AC is running, but the logs suggests other issues.

@mlemainque: any ideas what's going on here:

fakemoth · 2023-05-25T11:08:51Z

The external/outdoor sensor is only active when the AC is running, but the logs suggests other issues.

I can confidently assure you that is not the case, and is wasn't working at all for long time - so, since you replied, I started the AC on and checked it regularly. The temperature is still stuck at 24 degrees when it was bellow and now it is above that for sure, also have an external Aqara sensors to confirm. And it is at 24C for a week now, no matter the on/off state (AC is always plugged in BTW). I even had an power outage, so it was "unplugged" for an hour in the morning. Reported temp is the same.

Also in the past it was never the case, at least not for me - the outside sensor was continuously updated no matter the state of AC. My device is a Daikin Comfora Bluevolution FTXP25M-RXP25M Inverter 9000 BTU AC, and I also bought as per the HA docs a compatible Wifi Daikin BRP069B45.

Summer is coming. So - yeah, given it helps to know how toasty it is outside helps a lot with decisions/automations as I also have rack nearby.

Shep084 · 2023-05-25T11:39:03Z

I am also lead to believe now it’s only the outdoor sensor with the issue.

I can confirm some AC models do have continues recording of outdoor sensors. I have both new and old models and have experience with both.

From what I have worked out, the only way I can rectify the issue is to restart home assistant. It appears to fix itself and work correctly after a restart. It’s been running now for 2 days without an issue. I think the problem occurs for me after a power outage and requires the restart to fix the issue.

I can’t see anything in the log that would indicate an issue. I’m now considering buying an outdoor sensor to do outdoor temperature. Otherwise the plugin is amazing

fredrike · 2023-05-25T11:43:32Z

I've created a small patch for the NoneType + NoneType issue, not sure if it is what causes the sensor values to stop updating though.

https://bitbucket.org/mustang51/pydaikin/pull-requests/58

Will merge that patch and create a new version of pydaikin the coming days.

Shep084 · 2023-05-25T11:45:23Z

Thanks, appreciate the help

fakemoth · 2023-05-25T11:45:38Z

Indeed only a restart will do it. Tried right now, all of the sudden the temperature jumped from 24 to 26. And it will remain there I bet, even if at night it will be 16, or the sun exploding will get it right now to 136 :)
