Ar…har there’s your problem
The version in the market is the 1st release that Cédric got passed by the OpenHab2 compliance team.
He has made some amazing changes since then, but hasn’t submitted an update because it takes 3 months and he’ll probably make more additions.
First…
You need to remove the version via PaperUI/Addons/ Bindings
Stop OpenHab2
Make sure to search your installation for any archived versions and remove them.
Download this zipped up ‘bleeding edge’ version
http://www.mdar.eu/dl/openhab2/openhabvelbus.zip
And place the .jar file into your addons folder.
(On Linux that is normally /etc/openhab2/addons )
Now start OpenHab2
Go to PaperUI/Addons/Binding and make sure the Serial binding is installed.
The next part is annoying, but painless.
Because there are more ‘channels’ available for glass panels in the latest version, you’ll have to manually delete the Glass Panel / VMB1TS things and scan your Velbus network again.
Thankfully, when adding them back in, they should get linked back to the items that were linked previously.
Interestingly…
Cédric added a network binding to this version, so you can run something like PB_Server or VelServ which allows for multiple simultaneous TCP connections to your Velbus network.
Good luck
