Problem: Vaillant ecoTEC Plus VC 20CS/1-5 20 & SensoComfort 720/2 + temp outiside + Edbusd V5 about ebusd HOT 16 CLOSED

@haarkop can we connect directly? (WhatsApp, Messenger, TeamViewer, ....) It looks like you use incorrect configuration file and problem could be in way you download it.

Hello Koky05 - i'm having similar issues but not using HA when I try to read energy data fom my VC20CS i'm getting error invalid position in decode. I think its something about missconfig I would appreciate if You would finde 15 minutes to validate my debian/ebusd/ebusctl setup remotely.

Cześć @haarkop ,
So I had the same issue as there is no config file for your wall controler 15.ctlv2.csv
[main error] unable to load scan config 15: no file from vaillant with prefix 15 matches ID "ctlv2", SW0514, HW1104

I've just created a symlink to 15.700.csv, it started working but I don't have few items like z1DayTemp which prevents me from controlling the temperature in the room. So please try again and let me know if u have any luck and if you can control temperature.
Create link as below:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Sep 15 13:27 15.ctlv2.csv -> 15.700.csv

#1063

from ebusd.

Something managed to download please verify :)
Unfortunately, there is still no information about the water pressure in the system and from the side of the furnace and the controller

Yeah it reads the data now from your controler.

It doesn't show water pressure for me either, maybe @john30 will be kind enough to put some light on it. However If I manualy request ebusd to fetch me the water pressure - it works. The same goes with flame status in bai circut.

Try

[krzysiek@mini ~]$ echo "r  -c ctlv2 WaterPressure" | nc -q 1 127.0.0.1 8888
1.9

[krzysiek@mini ~]$ echo "r  -c bai Flame" | nc -q 1 127.0.0.1 8888
on

[krzysiek@mini ~]$

from ebusd.

I think the flame and WaterPressure are not in filter for mqtt-hassio.cfg, Try add values into filter line (108):
filter-name = status|temp|yield|fuel|count|energy|power|runtime|hours|starts|mode|curve|load|party|cooling|heat|sensor|timer|pressure|flame

from ebusd.

please check if I did it right , my config

scanconfig: true
loglevel_all: notice
mqtttopic: ebusd
mqttint: /etc/ebusd/mqtt-hassio.cfg
mqttjson: true
http: true
network_device: ens:192.168.1.204:9999
latency: 10
Access level: "*"
configpath: /config/ebusd-configuration/ebusd-2.1.x

below structure on HA drive, not sure if I have the mqtt-hassio.cfdg file in the right place

from ebusd.

According your configuration I will try to change it (to same path as config):
mqttint: /config/ebusd-configuration/mqtt-hassio.cfg

from ebusd.

After changing something like this, if I leave the default it is ok

from ebusd.

You have some unsupported character in your mqtt-hassio.cfg file.

You can look into MQTT what date it returns.

Fastes way is via MQTT Explorer:
MQTT Explorer as Addon

I checked and unfortunately nothing helped, I'm thinking about buying an original Vaillant and ebusd to the trash or sell, it's a pity that the author of the device did not provide information that it does not work 100% with new stoves

from ebusd.

@haarkop can we connect directly? (WhatsApp, Messenger, TeamViewer, ....)
It looks like you use incorrect configuration file and problem could be in way you download it.

from ebusd.

@k-fil sorry for misunderstanding, I could help with MQTT or file encoding problems. But I don't know how to change configuration filed to match Vaillant data. I'm on same boat as you I have couple of messages with invalid position in decode.
And if I run ebusd --checkconfig I got no errors.

from ebusd.

not an ebusd issue but missing config, so closing this one. please use ebusd-configuration for such

from ebusd.

Hmmm, I am kind of convinced that the Malformed UTF-8 is not a consequence of missing config, but rather "malformed" 'mqtt-hassio.cfg. In my case, I received this error when my mqtt-hassio.cfg had CRLF line ends compared to the original LF line ends. This can easily happen when copypasting on a Windows machine.
