Yes, bridging the 5v pins across both jacks will connect it to the control panel and ESP power.

I have a home assistant integration now working with the modbus interface.

Was just checking in as Iām not too sure when youāre notified of thread updates, or not,ā¦ thatās excellent news!
Am expecting parts to arrive over the next few days.
Bits just arrived.
Not getting any love from the FireBeetle board.
Connecting it via micro USB to my Win10 machine doesnāt show any changes in Device Manager. I assume thatās all thatās needed,ā¦ and then if not recognised go looking for a driver.
Other ESP32 boards I have all show up as a COM port.
This one just flashes L and CHG LEDs,ā¦ have never used one of these boards before. Have tried several W10 computers here, all the same.
Iād have thought if it was a DOA, that Iād get nothing, but the flashing lights are odd. RST button seems to restart the board, but still nothing on COM ports of the computer. Might go back to supplier for a refund/replacement.
So pulled out an ESP32-S2 unit I had and loaded up the control code.
Think it looks ok, so far. Nothing connected yet, just wanted to see if itād fire up.
Unsure about the last JSON field pair as its not documented in the āGET Requestā example, although I do see reference to it in the code.
Turned out the cable I was using must not have been quite right (even though Iāve used it before with ESP boards),ā¦ found another and now have comms with the FireBeetle board.
Pushing out the code I get the same behaviour as noted earlier,ā¦ connects to WiFi, webserver comes up and seems to be ready to go, so will connect up the rest and see how I go.
As an aside, Iāll also try the S3 board again as I managed to get 2 UART ports going on it, so donāt see any reason it wouldnāt work.
Hi Everyone.
Needing some help. I have a Magiqtouch. I am installing the Seeley wifi module. What steps do I need to take in order to integrate this into HA. I have seen that this may not be working. I have seen the Modbus integration but as a newer guy here I donāt know what to do or what to buy.
Thanks for your patience - hoping someone can help
I think the forum sends a notifcation per day so only saw that first one about parts on the way.
The code should really work with any ESP32, might just need to adjust the pins. Iāve recently swapped to an ethernet one as my original problem with the official unit was WiFi instability.
The last code in the json the raw main info code from the control panel to the wifi module, i figure if any info codes are needed by someone in future eg zone 3/4 they can just grab it from there.

If you have the official wifi module the easiest route is to use Andrew Leechās integration here: GitHub - andrewleech/ha_magiqtouch: Home Assistant (HACS) integration to control Seeley MagiQtouch heating and cooling units.
That will just connect via the official server, though Seeley keep changing things which breaks it every now and again.
Unfortunately, itās currently broken and only shows current temperature. There is no climate control entity.
