Domintell custom component

Yes, a very friendly lady called me twice. There will be a big announcement in March from domintell in the newsletter. Domintell will soon be available in Home Assistant.

dvanvyve · March 21, 2025, 11:27am

Hi All,

I’m new on Home Assistant. I managed to connect to my DGQG01 (via DETH02) and control DBIR, DDIM, Temp Sensor but I’m facing an issue with the session : whenever I use another device than Home Assistant to access my DETH02, the session got closed and I couldn’t find a way to far to reconnect.

Does anyone already create an automation for this ?

Thanks.

Hi,

The DETH02 module only accepts one connection/client at a time.
If “Exclusive session” is not set in parameters of the DETH02 in the Domintell2 software, each time a client connects to the DETH02, it will steal the session to the currently connected client.

If “Exclusive sessions” is enabled, you have to wait a timeout or a LOGOUT of the currently connected slave. A timeout occurs when no command is sent to DETH02 by the client (e.g. Home Assistant or Domintell Pilot) (including “HELLO” heartbeat). If you set session timeout to 0 using the Domintell2 software, You absolutely have to send the LOGOUT command to allow another client to connect to the DETH02

This problem is solved by installing as much DETH02 as you want simultaneous connections or replace it by a DNET01 that accepts up to 8 simultaneous connections. The best is to contact the Domintell support to have the right information.

Best regards.

Thanks for your feedback,

DNET01 is not compatible with DGQG01 and I have other old modules also not compatible with DGQG03/04.

The new module created by Domintell for HA will only be compatible with DGQG04.

Currently, since I’m using different applications/devices to connect to my DETH02, I have setup a timeout of 1 min and I have disabled the “Exclusive Session”.

But I could indeed add a second DETH02 module dedicated to HA or stop using my other applications.

Thanks.

DNET01 is suited for DGQG01 but you have to use “GoldenGate for DGQG01” but "GoldenGate for DGQG01 drops support of very old modules like DTSC01/03, DLCD0x, …

DNET02 is suited for DQGQ02/04.

The new integration created by Domintell for HA is compatible with any installation that has a DGQG01+DNET01, a DGQG02/04 or DGQG02/04+DNET02

Best regards.

dvanvyve · March 21, 2025, 3:44pm

OK,

Good to know. This is not what I understood from Domintell Support Team.

The Issue is linked to my 3 DTSC03. So I cannot use GoldenGate for DGQG01…

The cheapest solution will be to have an extra DETH02 in Exclusive mode for HA.

Thanks

Once source code will be released, you could try to implement the UDP suppport and pull request it

dvanvyve · March 21, 2025, 4:15pm

To be tested

Felipe2 · March 22, 2025, 9:25am

Update 3 : I fixed it.
Had to install goldengate1.46, do a firmware update to v30 on the master.
Than a conversion of de DAP file in domitell 1.27 soft

Hi,

For users who had the same issue or needs to update the O.S. of the DGQG01 to solve some bugs or you want to replace your DETH02 by a DNET01, the best from my experience, to avoid any lost of data, is:

Please note that if you have DTSC01/03 (any O.S. version) or DTSC02/04 (with O.S. older than 1.24.0), you will not be able to upgrade your installation!

If you do not have your DAP file on your computer, read the application from the DGQG with your current (old) version of Domintell 2 software.
Backup your current DAP in a special directory and do not touch (open) it anymore (elsewhere than in Documents/Domintell2 directory.
Install Domintell2 software version 1.27.09.04 (the best is to install it in electrician mode (check yes at first step of the installer).
Open Domintell2 software version 1.27.09.04. It will create the directory Documents\Domintell2\V1_27_09 .
Copy your DAP file to Documents\Domintell2\V1_27_09. This is very important as opening an old DAP file with a more recent version of a Domintell2 software will migrate/update the DAP file in-place (but don’t worry a backup of the original file is performed to Documents\Domintell2\Backup if you missed some steps before ).
Open your DAP file from Documents/Domintell2/V1_27_09 directory using the Domintell2 software version 1.27.09.04.
Read any warnings/dialogs to be sure nothing has been dropped or reset. Fix them if required. Then, just save it and close the Domintell2 software.
Open GoldenGate for DGQG01 and open the DAP file.
For the first move, update O.S. of the DGQG01 and modules. Please note that DTSC02/04 can not be downgraded!
Send the DAP file to the DGQG01.
Have fun with HA

It is a long time I didn’t do this but I think this is a good/secure way to proceed.

Best regards.

Hello, I am the one that started most of the issues. It can be easily installed by adding repository with the button in readme. It should be working now.
I am running it rigt now and testing if I fing any more issues.

hapasse · April 7, 2025, 10:43am

I am not able to test HACS button in README.md as HACS is not enabled on my box. Thank you for the confirmation

thedoudou · June 26, 2025, 4:38pm

Hi men,

Did someone see the variable into the integration ? I can see all my modules but no variable

David

hapasse · June 29, 2025, 9:47am

Hi thedoudou,

Can you give us more information, please ?
Do you use DGQG01+DNET01, DGQG02/04, DGGQ02/04 + DNET02 ?
Are you sure you did not set up the variables as “Master Only”.

You can also post your DAP file (you should anonymize the name of inputs/outputs/notifications/… and drop your DynDNS information (if any)).

Best regards.

thedoudou · July 2, 2025, 9:17pm

Hi，

i’m using thé DGQG04 without any DNET interface, and my variables have not the Master Only option checked.

David

hapasse · July 9, 2025, 5:55am

Hi thedoudou,

Can you give us the version of the Domintell integration, HA, GoldenGate and if it is possible, your DAP file (do not forget to anonymize name of inputs/outputs by renaming them) because it is working for me.

Best regards
