Thanks a lot for the clear instructions. I think the script/update was successful as Iâm able to manually add the VMB1TS, unfortunately something is wrong at my setup, since after the works the blinds and meteo are not responding anymore / though relais/input modules are still reacting. I initially assumed a bus error but the windows velbuslink is still able to discover them all. The output of Karaf console can be found below (it looks indeed iâm running 2x the velbus binding). What the best troubleshooting action now? (remove the velbus binding from PaperUI and start again?)
I suspected that might happen, which is why I said you check that you only have 1 bundle loaded.
The 2.4 version should vanish if you reboot, or you can remove it from the database (because the JAR file was deleted by the script) by simply starting the Karaf console and entering (in your specific case, other people will have a different number)
Hi,
Almost there ⊠all modules working again after removing v2.4 and VMB1TS is now auto discovering/recognized in âinboxâ, but for some reason not âonlineâ yet (despite reboots, disabling serial bridge, reinstalling serial bridge)⊠sorry but still some hints required? Any minimum prerequirements with respect to firmware level ?
Thanks a lot
Dear MDAR & Cedric,
Thank you very much for the successful development of the integration of the 1TS module
Initial tests are looking great, working like a charm.
Note to all: I purchased the velbus system back in 2009 (yes 11 years ago). Interesting to see all modules are still backwards compatible and even new developments are made for this older module.
Thatâs what I call a perfect service and I never regret my good decision to select Velbus.
I hope this convinces new buyers as well !
Hi,
My vmb1ts thermostats are working in openhab, but since the update it looks I a have problems with the connection with velbuslink and openahab at the same time, Iâm loosing modules or it takes very long time to detect them in velbuslink and in openhab. Is somebody have the same?
I donât think this is related with the upgrade. If you are using Velserv to be able to use both VelbusLink and OpenHab, I think this is the issue (also others have similar issues). Iâm using the direct (serial/COM) connection as I also experience desync status updates. (of course with limitation that I only use OpenHab)
@MDAR, I was trying to get your temperature widgets working, the original one VelbusThermostat.widget.json works partly (actual temperature doesnât show), the updated version I canât get to work out of the box (VelbusThermostatStreamlined.widget.json)
Do you have it working with you with the 1TS module?
The problem appeared since the vmb1ts are recognized.
Before it was working perfect with velserv, openhab and nodered on the same pi.
I tried a fresh setup this evening and everything worked tillâŠI updated the bindingâŠ
You should be able to get the widget working, itâs normally not much more than an Item name issue.
Can you double check with the text file in the zip ?
I suspect your Current Temperature Item has either the wrong name, or itâs a Number:Temperature, rather than a basic Number.
(FYI, donât forget that you can link multiple Items to a Thing channel, if you want to try different spellings etc)
Hi,
Sorry for the screenshots, but I donât see the âknopinstellingenâ
Also not 100% sure iâm using the latest VelbusThermostatStreamlined.widget.json (note, I also didnât âloadâ the Widget_Ani.gif). Iâm pretty sure iâm doing something wrong but I donât see immediately what is incorrect. Currently I only see the background / ref right block in first screenshot
the original module is functioning fine except current temperature is not showing based on default item names.
Any ideas based on below screenshots? (note testing both versions)
There is also a folder of Screen grabs to show the construction of the Items in PaperUI.
Widget_Ani.gif is / was just an animation of the older screen grabs and is nothing to do with the Widget.
It might be quicker to directly edit the widget directly within HabPanel (âManage widgetsâ), rather than try to remove them and import these new versions.
The advantage of editing the widget is two foldâŠ
Youâll see how they are constructed
Your edits will be reflected directly into any used copies of the widget and work straight away.
For reference, here are snippets of code from each widget so you can see how the Item names are used and see the changes Iâve made.
Still happy with my items file to manage the +500 variables (a bit challenging with the PAPER UI)
