If that is the case: no notification present, the binary_sensor.xyz_plugwise_notification should return to the OFF-state and then the HA Core Notification should be dismiss-able.
And that is not happening in your system, correct?
What is the HA Core version that you are running?
And which Plugwise-beta, which version are you on?
Based on what you describe I think you are not using the latest version, or maybe you are not using the latest Plugwise-Smile version. How did you install Plugwise-beta?
{
"domain": "plugwise-beta",
"name": "Plugwise Beta for Home Assistant",
"documentation": "https://github.com/plugwise/plugwise-beta",
"requirements": ["Plugwise_Smile==1.1.2"],
"codeowners": ["@CoMPaTech","@bouwew"],
"config_flow": true,
"zeroconf": ["_plugwise._tcp.local."]
}
I install Plugwise-beta through HACS as well as updating. I am running 0.4.0 as shown in the screenshot. The update to 0.4.1 doesn’t seem usefull for me (i.e. the auxiliary modulation level).
After the reboot, if the binary_sensor still has the state ON, please look at the HA Core Logs and “Load the full Home Assistant Log”. Scrolling down, you will see many debug-messages from plugwise-beta. Search for the word “notification”. What does the debug-message with this word show?
Let me see if and when I can reproduce it. Will keep you updated. Fortunately it seems like a minor issue. At least we know when a notification is not disappearing after dismissing it in the notification part a reboot of HA resolves it
Just FYI, w.r.t. Plugwise Notifications, the Plugwise-beta component can only detect them, it cannot dismiss them: there is not communication back to the Smile. So, the notification has to be dismissed in the Plugwise App.
Or it will disappear automatically, when the error is resolved. This happens in my system when I plug a Plug back into the electricity-socket. I don’t understand why this does not happen in your system, when the connection to the CV-ketel is restored.
Sometimes people assume too much wrt HA Core functionality
I wasn’t assuming HA is in any way able to dismiss a notification at the Plugwise side. When I noticed the notification in HA I already quickly saw the corresponding notification in Plugwise was (already) gone. Having notifications in HA is causing me stress because I am striving to a faultless system
any chance for support for Plugwise Stretch ?
it is recognized (by the non beta integration) as ‘stretch v2.3.12’
I’ve already tried to change the username in the plugwise-smile code to ‘stretch’ as that is mandatory
after that the integration gives ‘Unexpected error’ when entering the 8 characters ID from the plugwise stretch
my python is really bad, so I can’t solve it myself, I could extract the /core/ pages or others if that could give a jumpstart
