Is there a chance you can resend it again? Thanks!

I have the basic data also working now with the ESPHome firmware and the modbus controller component. And I use a level-shifter between the ESP and RS485 module. To convert the 5v level to 3.3. It should work without, but I found the RS485 module getting hot and not working properly…

My coding skills are not super, so I don’t know how to integrate the switches of the Oxilife, hopefully other reader’s can help out with that.

This is my esphome code:

Doesn’t work !
Integrations does not generate the integration after HACS install

lauwie · September 9, 2021, 1:53pm

Is there any update the above projects?

keteflips · September 30, 2021, 10:43pm

This works in all Hayward models?

jenro · March 13, 2022, 6:34pm

Do I understand correctly that it is no longer possible to integrate the vistapool cloud in HA (using the vistapool wifi device)?
That means the only way to get vistapool data in HA is using modbus and direct communication (PI with usb adapter or HF2211 )?

I want to order the vistapool wifi device, but if I can’t use it for HA integration I don’t think I’m interested.

uspino · March 13, 2022, 7:13pm

You are right. Latest API changes disabled cloud access. Modbus works great though, and you can use either an ethernet or wifi modbus module.

steegy · March 13, 2022, 7:22pm

Correct, buying a vistapool wifi device would be a waste of money since they disabled cloud API access.
Using MODBUS is the only way to get data from the sugar valley now.
I never got the HF2211 to work, but the PI + usb adapter solution is still working fine for me.

jcoetsie · March 23, 2022, 7:55pm

There is a tasmota project that talks to it directly, exposes sensors and also switches for the various parts.
https://tasmota.github.io/docs/NeoPool/

jenro · May 7, 2022, 7:41am

Can anyone share their full configuration (modbus)? The one shared by @kajmaj is using the old modbus syntax I think.

I am planning to use a pi with RS485 dongle in combination with ser2net. This way my HA server can use modbus communication to the remote pi.

Hello,

Excuse my English, I’m Spanish.
It is not clear to me, for it to work in HA I have to buy vistapool? or do I have to use this option with tasmota (Sugar Valley NeoPool Controller - Tasmota)? The tasmota option is far from my knowledge.

Thanks for the help

keteflips · May 12, 2022, 10:18am

Helo here another spanish with the same problem.

This part its in spanish, sorry.

Hola tio.

Yo voy a intentarlo con esa opción con Tasmota, si quieres podemos compartir experiencias.

Saludos.

Yoryino · May 13, 2022, 8:00am

Brilliant,

Well, I’ll try, I’m waiting for it to arrive and install the equipment, as soon as I have it, I’ll start.

At the moment I can start by buying the TTL UART to RS485 converter.

let’s go!

uspino · May 13, 2022, 9:33am

@Yoryino @keteflips This is your best bet. It’s been working flawlessly for me. Just hook up 4 wires to the Vistapool and you are ready to go.

Or get the WiFi version if don’t have LAN connection at the pool house.

Yoryino · May 14, 2022, 12:18am

thank you very much for the help, HGY HF-5111B purchased, as soon as it arrives, I go to the next level.

kajmaj · May 14, 2022, 1:10pm

@uspino

Just hook up 4 wires to the Vistapool and you are ready to go

4 wires to the Vistapool?

uspino · May 14, 2022, 4:35pm

You are right, 2 wires to the Vistapool, 2 to the power supply.

PhillJ · May 29, 2022, 2:48pm

Hello, thank you all for sharing your experience. Personally i finally manage to get data via Modbus does still struggling to get the right address (and bit) for the cover and the led.
Does anyone know in what register this info is ?
Thanks for the help.
