That path of serial_port is directily to my usb… i checked the path and its the IR Reader but i dont get any informations in developertools or something?
Hello, I have the same problem. I do not see any EDL21 entities in my list and even the logs say nothing. I guess the problem will be solved if this open issue is closed … https://github.com/home-assistant/core/issues/64357
I have unfortunately learned that edl21 cannot read many readers (some D0 and some SML meters) or cannot read them completely (not all OBIS-codes).
So I switched to the addon. And it wasn’t really difficult either. You only have to deal with the technology (protocol, baud rate, etc.).
I was lucky that I could draw on my experience with the FHEM-module (other home automation). I do not regret it.
I had a similar problem, too. My solution was to configure the USB serial port correctly, according to the instructions in the manual of my Weidmann sensor:
I thought I have the same problem, but the entities are there. Go to the menu “Devices & Services” (Geräte und Dienste). On the top menu you can select entities and search for the string edl21.
If your sensor reads data (e.g. from /dev/ttyUSB0) then you will find some entities. Now you can modify the region (Bereich) where the entities belongs to. I hope this helps for you.
