@bart1970 let's continue the detailed discussion w.r.t. your problem here.

[bart1970]

Hi Bouwe,

Here are (after edit were) the files. The cooling is turned on (with dipswitch).

Small remark related to the instructions anonymisation. The appliances, domain_objects and direct_objects files also contained the IP address in one of the <measurement lines. Updated the IP address there also to 127.0.0.2.

[bouwew]

Thanks! I've downloaded them, you can remove them from the above message.

[bouwew]

Bart, a question, how did you end up with Elga as a device-name? Did you rename the OpenTherm device?

[bart1970]

You mean the device name in HA I assume. I'm not aware that I have changed this. I don't think I can find that back, can I?

[bouwew]

Yes, device name in HA. The thing is, we expect to see OpenTherm as device-name, not Elga.

A quick update, we have found why you see the error, now we need to think about how to solve it...

[bart1970]

Good you found it. Hope you can solve it. If I need to do any tests, please let me know.

Just checked some backups. 1.5 year ago, it was already called Elga. So if I changed it, it was already a long time ago.

[bouwew]

Yeah OK, makes sense. Due to the HA unique_id, then the name / sensorname stay the same. But I realize now that this does not cause the bug.

We have it working in our test-environment. And we will test in plugwise-beta.
You could help us testing by installing plugwise-beta as a custom_component. Would that be an option for you?

Plugwise-beta can replace Core plugwise 1-to-1, you would only need to install plugwise-beta and restart HA. Plugwise-beta should pick up the existing Plugwise integration so you would not need to do any additional configuration.

[bouwew]

Anyway, I'm turning my PC off for today, time to relax :)

[CoMPaTech]

@bart1970 @bouwew pw-beta https://github.com/plugwise/plugwise-beta/releases/tag/v0.21.3a1 is available for testing from plugwise/plugwise-beta#248

[bouwew]

@bart1970 are you able to test the updates for us?
There are 2 options:

• Install plugwise-beta v0.21.3a2
• Change the plugwise version in the HA Core files to 0.16.7

We're happy to provide help for both options, if needed.

[bart1970]

Was working until an hour ago. I will give it a try now and let you know if I managed.
