Still have the problem with unavailable sensors after update.
I updated Nibe uplink integration (3aaad46), remova and again add Nibe integration (Configuration -> Integrations) sucesfully added Identifier and Secrets and save, but now there is no entities:

My configuration.yaml is:

nibe:
  systems:
    - system: 37950

Also try version without last line - same result…

In my log, there is:

2020-04-02 07:01:21 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.sensor] Error while setting up nibe platform for sensor

There is no call to async_create_group() in the revision you mention. So you have not managed to update the component.

Finally help me to uninstall and install Nibe uplink integrations (via HA Comunitty store).

Thanks!

A few years back I’ve spoken with the API development team at Nibe with regards to setting smarthome mode. They have explained that in the current implementation keeping the system in Vacation or Away modes would require periodic commands to the API every 45 minutes, otherwise the system would set back to Default operation. Can anyone confirm if this is still true? Do we have to run nibe.set_smarthome_mode periodically?

You can log in and check that your self easy here: https://api.nibeuplink.com/

I would like to block my compressor based on a temperature sensor (buffer > 40 degreesC), is there a function for that or could I use away or vacation mode for that? And how do I perform a simple write command to the nibe system in HA?

Edit: I think I found it under services, I will try to set the mode with a nodered flow…lets see if it works.

471

I just tried setting up a node-red flow which turns on vacation mode based on temperature sensors so I can block the compressor if my buffer is still hot (my pipes cool down which is causing unnecessary start/stops) and I seem to get something you explain here (curve is supply temperature, where 23 is my minimum). :
Imgur

@elupus Is there also a direct way to block the compressor or how could I make this periodic?

472

You need to call the service nibe.set_smarthome_mode periodic for now. I should probably add some type of entity for it.

473

Ok, I managed to solve that through setting up a periodic poll-state in node-red. I’ve set the minimum flow temperature to a low value (15) which only gets enabled through vacation mode (temp -21), so now my degree-minutes wont count down when the buffer is above 30 degrees. I dont block it when the compressor is already running (heating up beyond 30). Here is the code if someone has a similar issue.

474

Is there a way to detect if ‘passive cooling’ is on?

475

Tried the NIBE uplink API component in my HA installation. Turns out that Nibe changed integration in all their new system (S-series). S-series use dev.myuplink.com instead api.nibeuplink.com and the API is updated as well. Any one looked into this or used any other integration to interface the new API?

Maybe submit as an issue to @elupus via the GitHub repo GitHub - elupus/hass_nibe: Home Assistant Nibe Uplink Integration ?

477

I think it would make more sense as a separate project. Also without me having such a pump, I would not be able to develop that.

478

@elupus is it possible to get this component to report back to nibe the temp from a termometer in HA (a xiaomi for example)?

479

Yes, see the smart termostat stuff in config. You add a termostat that uses another sensor as it’s current temperature source.

How have i missed that!! Thanks!!

Hi.
Great work on this component.
I just had a SMO 20 with F2120 installed last week, and had with success added my Netatmo thermostats via Home Assistant.
How important is the valve position? I was wondering if the Nibe Smart Home can use that information. I would find it very useful, if I made heat pumps.
Also, how do i change the valve position in HA?

482

I have no clue if they even use it. I suppose they could use it to adjust output temperature…ie allow high output temp for a cold room, even if one room is hot (and valve closed). But I don’t even know what is open and closed.

To adjust it in ha you can hook up a input_number in ha and point it to that entity.

483

Indeed, is there any possibility to check the status of the current mode: heating or passive cooling activated?

484

hello guys, sorry for a noob question but i could not find a SystemID, can anyone tell me where is it?
thank you all
