Dobiss NXT support

not really - I haven’t had anyone using Zigbee devices through dobiss, so that hasn’t been tested yet (my zigbee devices are connected to HA directly). Audio is not supported as I don’t have that and I haven’t had any requests for it yet. Climate control is something I don’t have but I’ve implemented it on request and that works fine now as far as I know. Everything else should work - just let me know once you start using it if you have any issues…

I mean modules like here: Modules | Dobiss Domotics
I guess I’m good with the NXT server as-is? Or are extra modules required?

Zigbee or Wifi devices I also connect directly to HA, so that is no issue.

There’s no requirement on modules themselves no, the NXT server provides the abstraction for all of those. Personally I have some Relay modules, 0-10V modules, and input modules.

Dear,

i bought following P1 monitor and was hoping to connect it directly to Dobiss.

I looked at your script, but I’m unable to see how to data has to be passed to Dobiss.

Is this via UDP/TCP? Do they use special formatting?

Brgds,

Rik

From the info I found, dobiss only supports the Youless P1 module (YouLess - TD-er's Wiki), not just any P1 module. My p1dobiss script (GitHub - kesteraernoudt/p1dobiss: dsmr to dobiss p1 connection) does emulate that API, so allows data from HA (or dsmr) to be made available to dobiss. So in your case, you could connect this P1 reader to HA or to dsmr, and then use my script to make that same data available to dobiss…

Indeed @kester @Rik_Vanden_Boer
I have it working like that and it works great. Many thanks once again :slight_smile:
I have my P1 connected to HA and then your script sends it over to Dobiss.

Just a question: I see dobiss supports SMA & SolarEdge solar panels now. However I do have SAJ solar panels.
Would it be possible to do the same as your P1 script, but then for any solar panel available in HA?

I use a lot of Zigbee devices through Dobiss (RGB lights, motion sensors and even an Aqara luxaflex motor) and they all work perfectly fine through your integration.

The main reason I connect them through Dobiss is that then I can use the Niko wall buttons to control the Zigbee devices too.

Button switch status in HA would be nice, but I understood those are not offered through the API, so nothing you can do about it.

Great work, Kester !

BTW, anyone experience with locking some HA buttons with pincodes such that I can open my garage with a pincode, but closing won’t ask one. That is one of the only Dobiss features I miss in HA.

Hi @mdeclerck do you use the Dobiss zigbee gateway itself?
What does it cost?
It seems to be a Phoscon gateway. I did some tests in the past, as I have a conbee2 and wanted to run a PhosconGW as a HA addon or as a docker on my synology nas. But it didn’t work, as in both cases it was not recognized on my network.

And do you have any experience with niko zigbee buttons (552-72101)? I forgot somewhere to place a niko button. So I would love to be able to just add a zigbee button.
Thx

I’ve asked info on the SMA integration in dobiss - I’ll see if that is something that would be easy enough to emulate…

I did indeed buy the Phoscon Gateway (ethernet version) through Dobiss for 225 Eur. The Zigbee devices are all paired with this Phoscon which is accessed by Dobiss NXT. And all Zigbee devices are also perfectly available in HA through Kester’s awesome Dobiss integration.

I use the “Friends of Hue” switch (120-91004) en it works perfectly in Phoscon/Dobiss : Friends of Hue Niko dimschakelaar Intense white - DeDomoticaStore

Dobiss NXT versie 3.30 is uit …

en al geupdate? Ik nog niet, zal het binnenkort doen denk ik…

Ik heb vanmorgen de update gedaan :slight_smile: . Tot hiertoe werkt alles perfect.
Zal iets laten weten, moest het niet zo zijn.

ah nice! Ik zal binnenkort ook wel updaten - kan nooit lang wachten :slight_smile:

Heeft iemand de koppeling tussen de dobiss nxt en een sma omvormer al in orde gekregen? Ik heb het ip-adres ingevoerd en poort 502. Ik krijg echter geen gegevens binnen. Moet er bij SMA iets veranderd worden en hoe?
Tnx

I just pushed a new release (v1.7) to be compatible with an upcoming update from Home Assistant - thanks @tvds for the bug report :slight_smile:

je moet modbus tcp enabled hebben op je SMA omvormers. Bij mij is dit niet zo, en ik kan het zelf niet doen (heb geen admin rechten), dus ga mijn installateur es moeten vragen…

Hi,

I have my ventilation unit connected to a 0-10V output of my Nxt Server Master Module.
Currently I can only see this output as a switch (on/off) in HA. Is it also possible to add dimming to this output? (0-100%)

For me if i long press i do get the slider to control the actual percentage. Does that work for you?

Do you have a way of turning the ventilation on and off, or is it just this slider? I have a separate switch to completely turn the ventilation unit off.

I’ve combined both in home assistant to a fan template object so it looks better in the user interface. You could probably do that as well - no matter if you have an extra switch or not. i can give you my config file entry as an example. Let me know…

I don’t get the actual percentage when I long press the switch.
I don’t have a seperate switch in Dobiss to switch the ventilation on and off:

The issue is that I can only see a switch in HA, I can’t see the percentage…
