yes you can just change them in docker and then restart hass

Hey Gang 
Sorry I’m late to the party.
(I could have sworn I’d signed up to HASS forum, but it turns out that I hadn’t)
As always, if there is anything I can do to help, please let me know.
Best wishes to all,
Stuart 
Do you have somewhere to list bugs?
For example, I’ve just got HASS running and it seems that one of my thermostats is in COOLING mode, but HASS is reporting it as HEAT mode and isn’t showing COOLING as an option.
Do dimmers support sliders or are they just ON / OFF ?
(Okay, I found out how to do that now)

HI All,
Today I finally got my VMBMeteo installed which I was hoping to use for some sprinkler automation and wind readings for opening/closing my windows screens.
I’ve checked it’s functionality in theVelbuslink software and all should be good to go but when I check the Velbus integration it can only read out one binary sensor while the sensor should have 8 channels with potential additional alarms.
Any idea if this is a local problem or does the integration not yet support this module fully?
in the upcoming release (i think it will be released somewhwre this week) we have upgraded the velbus component, it should support a lot more modules.
So lets wait until that version is released before we start to debug

Thanks for the info! I’ll defintetely check the new release and let you know!
Thanks a lot!
Hopefully VMBPIRM + VMBGPOD-2 are included 
HI @Cereal2nd, the new release indeed improved the situation! I see all channels now for the VMBMETEO. The alarm channels seem to work properly but I haven’t been able to get the included analogue sensor values to read properly like wind speed or even temperature.
There is however one thing I need to still check on my side. I have an VMBELO displaying these values directly on the bus so potentially this is blocking read out on HA?
Hi ,
I am testing the new version.
I have the next error message:
Not all modules are loaded within a timout of 600 seconds, continuing with the loaded modules
what is the reason?
thanks a lot
Hi, this morning I have installed the latest version “core-2021.10.0”. After the update no communication with my Velbus configuration. I have restarted the my Raspberry Pi (power off, power on), same problem.
“Not all modules are loaded within a timout of 600 seconds, continuing with the loaded modules”
What could be the problem?
can you check in your config folder:
.storage => velbuscache
is something in that folder?
Folder is empty .
same issue here. After the lastest upgrade. The climate entity is gone and the temp sensors have been renamed on all VMBpod and ELO push buttons. All my thermostats are gone
adding below config will give me more info on what happens
logger:
default: info
logs:
velbus-parser: debug
velbus-module: debug
velbus-packet: debug
velbus: debug
homeassistant.components.velbus: debug
python-velbus: debug
the climate is indeed something that went wrong with the udpate, working on a fix.
all other stuff should work

I have only done additional tests. I have found that only a few modules of the Velbus installation can be operated via Home Assistant. So, serial communication works. Installation has always worked perfectly, for 2 years. Since the last update, Velbus installation can hardly be used via Home Assistant. All other integrations work perfectly. Is it possible to temporarily revert to the previous version until all issues are resolved? Thanks in advance.
Regards, Marc.
Some things I’ve forgotten. When I operate a switch, the icon changes from blue to yellow, that no longer happens.
Im also having issues with the velbus integrations:
The light switches can mostly be toggled on once from the UI and after that toggling off or on becomes impossible, so the lights stay on. Dimmable lights cant be switched on or off but the dimming part itself (slider bar) does work. Other non velbus integrations like Shelly wifi plugs work perfectly.
When i use the call service on and call service off in the developer tab, the lights do turn on or off. the service toggle does not work at all

It might be of some help to those experiencing problems but I got my setup seemingly working again by adding the integration again using the UI this time. In case you name everything using the velbuslink software you can easily populate your automations again if the integration is readded.
I actually did reintegrate velbus via the UI and thats when i started receiving those issues listed above
