Ok, Let’s get that fixed. How is the entity shown in home assistant for you (settings - entities)? For me it shows up in the light domain, so it’s called light.ventilatie. If that’s not the case for you we should get that fixed first, otherwise it won’t have a percentage slider. If it does, then I can give you my template fan implementation which makes this a bit nicer. Ideally I could automatically detect this and create such, but that will take a bit longer to develop and test, while the template is very easy to do…
It show up as a switch. Perhaps because it’s configured as a fan in Dobiss?
It’s a fan for me in dobiss as well… Let me check a couple of things, and I’ll get back to you with probably a request for some logs to debug this
Ok, I just checked - it should show up as a dimmable light, and not a switch.
Can you send me some screenshots of the Ventilatie entity in HA - more specifically the settings and info wtih attributes open, from the entities tab:
That should give me some info on why this doesn’t work for you - I guess it’s connected differently in your dobiss system…

ok, I’ve pushed a new version to the dev branch which should solve this - the ventilation unit should show up as a light now, which should show the brightness slider to control the speed of the fan. Let me know if that works for you!
-Kester
It shows up as a light now and everything works correctly.
Thanks for the quick support!
Great! I’ll create a new release soon with this fix !
Hi all,
It seems that dobiss NXT hacs custom component is not working anymore with the latest versions of home assistant. I start to experience it after updating from 2022.9.x to 2022.11.4. is this a known issue? Home assistant is able to connect to dobiss NXT server, but all entities get the following warning message in dutch: “Het apparaat is uitgeschakeld door Configuratie-item.”
Are you running the latest release? There were some changes made because of a warning about deprecated functions being used, which would cause this behaviour. I don’t see these warnings anymore now running the latest version.
If you are running the latest and still see this, can you share the log file - or at least the entries that are about the dobiss integration?
Just saw the bug you filed on github, and with the info there it should indeed be fixed in the latest release. Can you test, and let me know if it still fails for you?
So it’s better to not upgrade HA yet?
If you update the dobiss integration, i expect it to work with the latest ha
I was on the latest dobiss release and after upgrading to the latest HA release everything is still working as expected 
Ah super! Thanks for letting us know!
Hi Kester,
It seems to me that the IP address of the NXT server changed, but I can’t figure out where to change it in HA. Can I change it in the config somewhere?
Thanks in advance.

…That’s indeed not possible to change dynamically. You will have to remove the integration from home assistant and then add it again. I have looked at the code and also at other integrations and there doesn’t seem to be an easier way…
Oh, i haven’t tried to update yet - i don’t expect problems but yeah, i should try…
