Hi Again.
OK - did some more searching - and seems that the solution is need to make this work is the
Assistant-Relay-for-Hassio
Allthough it seems like alot of work to make your lamps turn on and off
Hi Again.

That’s why we buy devices that work WITH Home Assistant.
I know, but long story short; we have just build a brand new house - and we got the Complete Enet Smart Home Solution - at a very attractive price - because we have agreed to do Demos for other potential customers. - So it was kind of a no-brianer. I had not idea that the system was so “closed” being that it’s actually just a scaled down KNX solution.
But - i have head that they might enable the KNX protocol for full fledged access in the future.
so until then
Did you see this?
Yea - that was actually what i thought would work :).
based on the info on the site:
https://www.enet-smarthome.com/en/
and off course on jungs homepage.
But - the KNX / IP gateway - does not plugin to the enet server - not out of the box anyway
the problem is that the “bus” is not 100% compatible - afaik.
Hi,
I have a enet installation including enet server at home, and have created an integration to Home Assistant. Right now it only works with lights, I don’t have blinds etc.
Send me a pm if you want to try it.
Hey Magnus,
I’m new here. Until recently, I didn’t know home-assistant at all, but a friend recommended it to me.
I also use the eNet Smart Home system and am now looking for an integration to test the system.
I am unable to send you a private message, but i think it’s also interesting for others because the system is becoming more and more famous.
At this Moment i only use my eNet System with my iOS App and in addition to this i usw Alexy for voice commands. But in the future i want to setup a tablet with a kind of dashboard and home-assistans could be the solution for my idea.
If you have a Solution to integrate eNet, I would be happy if you share it with us
Greetings
Hi Foth.
I worked abit with Magnus on creating the code for the integration.
i did mostly test the code that magnus made.
i was however not “stable” enough for me to use a productive integration,
so instead i used the google assistant relay plugin - and re-created all my lights
as template lights using scripts to turn them on and off.
not a very pretty solution - but it’s working.
I have had some dialog with the eNet developers - and i keep asking them
to open up the system - preferably using the mqtt protocol or similiar
So if you have some spare time - you should write to them - so that they know we are several people who would love for the system to become more open
you can pm me - if you would like the python code that magnus and i worked on.

Hey Ronni,
thank for your fast response.
Sure, I’m interesstet, but maybe I’m stupid, but i don’t find a PM button
Would be great if you can write me!
AND I wrote them today again and asked for Solutions für Apple Home-Kit and Home-Asstsannt
Last time i write them, because of Apple Home-Kit and Alexa Integration, they gave me the Information that they work on Alexa and Google Solution and after short time they will announce it. After one Week it was Online.
I will let you know, if i get some Informations!
Greetings
Chris
Hi Chris.
Just sent you a PM
Hi all,
Did anyone ever get the Gira Enet Server working on Homeassistent?
I have this one:
I hope anyone can shine a light on this integration.
Hi!
I have the exact same Enet server.
There are no official integration.
Magnus has made an working integration, but it’s still very “rough” and it’s not implemented as an HA addon. It’s a python program that will interact with the Enet servers Administration interface.
This interface is made by the enet folks - using jsonrpc - which is what the program also uses to communicate.
I have the code in a local copy - and i believe magnus alså has it, but i am not sure if he has done any more coding on it.
i would we willing to help implementing the plugin - and to help making it work as a real plugin - but my time is very limited at the moment.
As for my way of solving it temporarily:
I have created template lights - that interacts with the assistant relay service -hence having “optimistic” lights - that i can turn on / turn off / dimmer. That then calls the assistant service - and makes the lights turn on and off via the google assistant interface. It actually works pretty good for integrations and so on. But there is off course no “state” - meaning that if i turn on the enet lights on outside of HA - then HA wont now the real state.
BTW - i have contacted the enet team many time - and suggest that you all do the same. I keep asking them for an official MQTT api / addon - preferably buil into the enet server - so that its more future proff.

Hi Ronni, I have the same issue still looking at an eNet interface. I would like to have the code and see if i can help , and what email to use for nagging the enet team
Hi, I am considering JUNG for my home, how do you guys fin the system?
Hi alnavasa.
I have had the Jung eNet Smart Home system for almost 2 years now.
Generally i am happy with the features, and it’s “quick”.
Also - the system for programming and creating schedules works ok.
The main problem though - is the ecosystem.
They haven’t opened up for any 3. part integration - except their own select few ( Google Assistant / Amazon Alexa / Conrad Connect ).
it would be so easy for them to create an mqtt protocol or similier - that could be hosted on the enet server itself - but i have tried to communicate that to them several times - without luck :).
Because an open integration - would really “up” the system to new levels :).
Right now i am using the system with the google assistant relay - and have create som “quasi” on/off buttons - to that i can control the most central lightning.
Hey there,
I am using the eNet Smart Home system for the blinds in my apartment. I have started taking a look at Magnus’ code but have so far been unable to allocate enough time to really further its development.
The native eNet app is OK to use, but takes a while to connect to the eNet Server, which can be annoying if you’re looking to quickly interact with your devices. There are also no widgets to counteract that problem.
The google assistant relay was no alternative for me, as having “optimistic” blinds in Home Assistant which can only be controlled with a few seconds delay is worse than just using the eNet app. (Especially, if you want to stop them in one position during opening or closing)
Other than that, the system works just fine for me, it’s very reliable and controlling the blinds through the wall switches has yet to fail me.
If they’d just open up a usable local API or integrate with HA on their own, I could recommend it without hesitation.
Hi,
sorry to hijack your thread, but do you know if eNet switches / modules connect to each other? Or in other words, do all switches need to be in proximity of the eNet server?
It is very difficult to find people with such an install.
Thank you,
T
Isn’t it possible to capture the data telegrams like the KNX integration does?
Hi!
As far as i am concerned - each enet device ( actuator or transmitter ) needs to be paired with the enet server - to be able to use the complete “enet features”.
I do remember reading something in the manual about “direct” connection between a trigger and an ouput - to that a specific button can activate an specific output - with a direct connection - if you want to use it without the enet server.
I cant see any reason for this howeever.
With regards to the data telegrams - you can “monitor” the packages inside the enet server - but i am not sure if you are able to “catch” theese with some kind of 3. party hardware - i have never looked into this.
