Beginner Question: message broadcast and direct ask

Open wrongisthenewright opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

Hi john, thank you very much for your work, is awesome! I'm workink on a configuration of ebusd for an Ariston boiler and heatpump system. I've been able (with the help of others Ariston heatpump users) to discover many working codes. I'd like to create a csv configuration able to gather broadcasted messages and, for some of the metrics, also be able to directly ask the value to the appropriate device. Is it possible to have for the same metric both message definition (broadcast and direct read)?

If I set the same metric with 2 different definition:

r,hybrid,z1_day_temp,,13,fe,200e,6271,[...]
r,hybrid,z1_day_temp,,,18,2000,6271,[...]

ebusd won't work, atm I've differentiated broadcasted messages with a specific suffix:

r,hybrid,z1_day_temp_bcast,,13,fe,200e,6271,[...]
r,hybrid,z1_day_temp,,,18,2000,6271,[...]

but in this way in home assistant I have double the number of entities...Is there a way around?

TY!
