Did you do so without issue?

54

I had a look at the instructions. It is not for faint hearted (i.e. me :smile: )

55

It seems my AC unit does not support Inside or Outside temperatures. Can anyone suggest to me how I can populate the entity (sensor.ac_inside_temperature) with a value from another sensor? Currently it only shows Unavailable. It seems I cannot even set the state manually.

Why not get another standalone sensor for this purpose ? Thats what I am doing at the moment.

57

Can anyone suggest an alternative to this? It was working fine but since I added another unit I simply can’t get it working and it’s a known issue that can’t be resolved. - Falls out and needs several reboots to activate again · Issue #54 · sockless-coding/panasonic_cc · GitHub

Basically I have to reboot HA many many many times to get it to connect, and then when it does it never finds all 3 units. So I just get to control 1 or 2 of them.

I don’t want to hack the hardware and install an esp.

58

If you have the dnsk-p11 wifi module there is this alternative: Wifi interface for Panasonic airconditioning (drop-in DNSK-P11 replacement)
There aren’t any modules left but they state they’ll create new ones if they get enough reservations (I need 5). It’s a one-on-one replacement for the module, no need to do other hardware changes.

I can strongly advice against using the panasonic comfort cloud service, apart the stability issues, one of my units seems to share his online profile with another unit, so from time to time I can’t operate my unit, but can operate another unit somewhere out there… 6 months after reporting this panasonic hasn’t been able to solve this

Same here, both my indoor units work if I turn of the w/kWh entitys in the integration settings. I would like to track the used energy, but at this stage i cant :confused:

60

Is it possible to get the kWh usage under the energy tab? is there anything i can do to get the daily energy sensor and devices under energy?

61

Hi @mn_box

You can access locally to the aquarea with this board HeishaMon communication PCB from TheHogNL on Tindie

62

Solution: ESPHome Panasonic Climate WiFi interface - espthings.io

63

@realeer there is a fix underway, as an interim work around you can include the following in your configuration.yaml

sensor.panasonic_daily_energy:
  state_class: total_increasing
  device_class: energy

Long term fix:

Hi Revin, thanks for the tip. Indeed I am now using the HeishaMon device. Works perfect

65

Ive got this warning:

  • Entity climate.sva_airco_living (<class ‘custom_components.panasonic_cc.climate.PanasonicClimateDevice’>) implements device_state_attributes. Please report it to the custom component author.

Any luck with the Aquarea Heat Pumps?

67

Yes, it works with the comfort cloud app.

68

@sockless Hi, is there any plans to integrate Aquarea hetpumps into this component? The original comfort cloud app is awful and pretty slow so i guess there is enough demand for it. I cna provide you access to my heatpump if needed.

Is it only me that have the issue of the component only showing one device, when i could two heatpumps ?

71

Hi
Thanks for the god job doing this integration.
Is it only me having problems seing the power consumption under Energy in HA?
I can se the 2 entities Current Power and Daily Energy but are not able to put them under the Energy Pane?

72

I had to add a customize.yaml override:

Thanks I will give it a try - but as I can read in the documentation it is because the coding not is correct - so maybe it is a easy fix for the developer next time he do a upgrade?
