Support Ventilation modes and programs on heat pumps

[CFenner]

This copies the functions for ventilation modes and programs from the Ventilation device to Heat Pumps.

See: https://github.com/somm15/PyViCare/blob/63f9f7fea505fdf9a26c77c6cd0bff889abcdb05/tests/response/Vitocal222S.json#L3227-L3229

[LarsTh86]

It is relevant that you activated it for a vitocall222s? We have a 200s. I don't know if this is relevant. I can test it tomorrow. At the moment the update from HA Core is on going. After this is finished, i will test it

[CFenner]

Unfortunately, you can only test this with a python script, not in Ha.

Device type is determined by https://github.com/somm15/PyViCare/blob/63f9f7fea505fdf9a26c77c6cd0bff889abcdb05/PyViCare/PyViCareDeviceConfig.py#L82 which should also match your device. If the feature is not supported an exception will raise that is handled on HA.

Is there something new about the Ventilation ?

[crazyfx1]

What is the ventilation on heatpumps?

[CFenner]

As far as I understand it's a central ventilation unit attached to the heat pump.

@LarsTh86 can you elaborate a bit more on your setup?

[LarsTh86]

I have heatpump with direct connected central ventilation unit. vitocal 200-s with Vitovent 200-W and a VX3 hybrid storage system.

[LarsTh86]

There are two programs for ventilation, which would be really comfortable to control with the vicare integration for HA. I already activated and deactivate this Modus with iobroker but this is not comfortable but it works with vicare-api

[CFenner]

I‘m unsure if this is the right approach. For some reason the ventilation program is also shown in the heat pump but i think there is also a separate device for the vitovent!

[CFenner]

Ok, just verified again, the ventilation device is only accessible via the heating device. There is no separate device in the API.

[LarsTh86]

It is only controlled via the heat pump and is directly connected to the heat pump control.

[pduchnovsky]

I have the same setup as LarsTh86, vitocal 200-s with Vitovent 200-w
It's going to be awesome finally having control via HA once this is merged :)
Thanks CFenner for awesome work on this

[Nibot1]

Those changes look good and useful. I can also approve that there are many of those combined units, especially in prefabricated houses in Germany. The Heat pump and the Vent-Unit communicate internally via Modbus or something like this and don't have their own HMI

[LarsTh86]

Ready for testing?

Hi, I have a Vitocal 200-S to which a vitvont 200-C is connected via Modbus which is correctly controlled by the ViCare app. I don't understand if currently with the home assistant integration I can control the ventilation because for now only the heat pump is displayed to me. Can anyone tell me if I'm doing something wrong? Thanks

[LarsTh86]

Not yet. This ticket was the feature request for the support. If you use for example use the iobroker, it will be supported. It is technically possible, but not yet implemented.But this is good time to ask for the actually state?Gesendet von Outlook für AndroidVon: Asino123 ***@***.***>Gesendet: Freitag, September 27, 2024 2:30:15 PMAn: openviess/PyViCare ***@***.***>Cc: LarsTh86 ***@***.***>; Mention ***@***.***>Betreff: Re: [openviess/PyViCare] Support Ventilation modes and programs on heat pumps (PR #358) Hi, I have a Vitocal 200-S to which a vitvont 200-C is connected via Modbus which is correctly controlled by the ViCare app. I don't understand if currently with the home assistant integration I can control the ventilation because for now only the heat pump is displayed to me.

Thanks for the reply. Could you tell me what iobroker is or where I can find information about it? Thanks

[CFenner]

@Asino123 this means the vitovent is integrated into the aPI via the heatpump or a separate device?

It is integrated via the heat pump.

[LarsTh86]

Iobroker is similar to homeassistant. Ans has also a vicare "integration" and this integration has a support for ventilation. This integration is not user friendly but it works. But nevertheless would be a integration in homeassistant would be great

[gabrielma89]

How can I add ventilation device to control it via HA? I have Vitocal 200 S and Vitovent 300-W. My JSON is attached.
