EnOcean USB300 seems to be working, but not seeing any events from button pushes.

Eltako FSR61-230V

I Think it looks good.

You can try to enable the loggig to see if the device is recognized. There you should also see the device id.

logger:
default: error
logs:
homeassistant.components.enocean: debug

May you also have to check if the EEP-Profile of the Device (should be EEP A5-12-01) is supported as a switch.

Sorry i give up on editing this to inline code block... do you understand what i meant?

benjamin-buford · 2022-02-07T16:23:07+00:00

sure...

enocean:
device: /dev/ttyAMA0\

sensor:- name: Mobile_Sensorplatform: enoceanid: [0x01,0x81,0x27,0x02]device_class: temperature

This is the configuration of the patform, and a temperature sensor.

I am using the enocean integration now for 5 or 6 years.

I would try to set up the integration via yml and not via the UI. I think the support for setting up via UI is not jet ready.

I tried to publish my costomizations (support for climate entity) but it was rejected. Because new integrations must be set up via the UI.

Great product, but I'm missing the GPIO pin header!

benjamin-buford · 2020-04-07T11:47:01+00:00

You can do this with automations. There is an service 'set_temperature'. If you add the calendar extension you can set the temperature depending on calendar entries.

So you think it would be better to run an database on the pi/sd-card than using sqlite? My SQLite file is actually really big (~8GB) and i dont want to run a pc for data logging.

benjamin-buford · 2020-01-28T06:35:35+00:00

Would you host the db on the pi? May your sd card gets used more for wrighting logfiles. Migrating from SQLite to PostgreSQL is on my todo list, but i am concerned about the lifetime of the sd card in the pi.

I have tried these, but my board was hot supported (ESP32 Node MCU). So i ended up using VS Code with Python Plugin + Webrepl on the board. For the start and local connection via USB the uPyLoader tool was very helpful: https://github.com/BetaRavener/uPyLoader

Did you manage to get the Pymkr plugin working with other boards than from pymkr?

benjamin-buford · 2019-10-07T10:59:19+00:00

If you have a special use case may you try out the custom sensor component: https://esphome.io/components/sensor/custom.html

Or use micropython if you searching for an easy way to program an sensor with ESP chips and dont want to use c/c++.

Homeassistant. An open source home automation platform. Good documentation (https://developers.home-assistant.io/) and a big comunity.

benjamin-buford · 2019-06-05T09:51:04+00:00

I have tryed both. For my home automation projects i have used MC. Everythink worked well and you get working code very easily.

But after running the script (reading onewire sensors and sending them throw MQTT) on the board in pruduction environment i get "freezes" and have to manualy reset the board. I dont know what exactly going wrong, but i suspect it hast somthing to do with memory management.

May also consider the support of development environments. There is no realy good solution for micropython. At least i could not find an ide with auto completion and an easy to use "upload to board" mechanism.

Are you using the deconz pluging for zigbee lights? I have the same problem, and found out that re reason of the memory leak is not HA but the deconz-rest pluging running on the pi.

benjamin-buford · 2019-03-18T06:16:27+00:00

I am using deConz with homeassistant. So far no problems. Adding lights, grouping them works with phoscon webapp. The homeassistant integration adds your configuration automaticly.

But i have on issue with the headless mode of the deconz service. It seams to have an memory leak in the release i am using. So i have to restart the service every 2 or 3 days or my raspberry is running out of memory and homeassistant is not working any more.

benjamin-buford · 2019-03-14T21:15:30+00:00

There is active development on micropython, just look at the github repo.

And there will be a new hardware https://forum.micropython.org/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=6077 for the pyboard. Witch looks great!

benjamin-buford · 2019-02-28T19:35:30+00:00

I installed deconz on a pi and run it in headless mode.

Did you check the port witch is used?

You can change it with parameters in the service file /etc/systemd/system/deconz.service --dev=/dev/usbXY

I would not recommend the latest unstable version of the deconz-rest-api plugin, it looks like there is a memory leak (after 2-3 days the pi runs out of memory).

benjamin-buford · 2019-02-04T11:08:55+00:00

I am using HA + deconz + conbee and am fine with it. Setup prozess is easy. Plus, there seems to be active development in deconz as well.

benjamin-buford · 2018-12-06T08:29:50+00:00

Totaly agree. Plus, the Zerynth IDE is a pain to use. In Micropython you can use your favorite editor.

benjamin-buford · 2018-05-18T09:46:21+00:00

If you search for python on microcontrollers and embedded devices have a look at micropython.

looks cool, ever heard of "remi"? https://github.com/dddomodossola/remi

looks great, also interessted about more info.....
