THIS APPLICATION WILL BE RETIRED LATER. CODE IS MERGED WITH HOMEWIZARD APPLICATION IN THE HOMEY APP STORE
This app will allow you to add your Homewizard Energy dongle (wifi) to your Homey.
Thanks to community donations (@Henk_Renting, @JPe4619, @Frank_van_de_Schuur, @ajouwens ) I could get my hands on a real device:
Note of warning your dongle must have firmware 1.48 or higher else pairing will not work and give http error. This firmware should automatically update after an hour connected with wifi internet.
If you can’t find your IP address check your wifi router for the dhcp name “espressif” which seems to be a wifi hardware brand used.
There is a separate module required (kwh DIN rail) which is currently not supported and also has no API available (yet). Not sure when and how Homewizard will provide this in the future.
Would it be possible to hide the usage from delivering to the net? Perhaps there can be a toggle in settings for showing them or not? I do not use solar panels and then the overview is a bit leas clear.
The app has the HomeWizard logo. Your other HomeWizard app has the same logo and the name is almost the same. With the new function of Homey to search for devices nearby it is a bit hard to distinguish one app from the other. The more, since (in the search screen) you cannot see which app is installed or not.
When having the app installed and installing the P1 dongle, the device itself has the same HomeWizard logo. It would be (in my opinion) logical to have a logo with a P1 dongle in it. That is more alike as other devices in Homey apps.
it is not very clear to me what is meant/done by using the led-ring. Not at installing and not in the settings of the app. Perhaps that can be made more clear?
Perhaps it would be clearer to use the terms “total” (NL: “totaal”) and “current” (NL:”huidig”) in reporting/usage.
Seems a bit much or not so thankfull perhaps but it is just to make the app even better.
I am very, VERY pleased with this app. It already works great!
Thank you very much, @Jeroen_Tebbens!
Highly appreciated!
Hiding usage from the net is unclear to me. What do you see (screenshot) is wrong from what you expect? I cant change the Homey Energy behavior as that is what smart meter is about. But dont understand the issue.
Logo is/was quick and dirty. Give me suggestions what you guys want. I also said it would be cosmetic.
Same as above we need to agree on logo
led ring needs to be removed, forgot that. Its left over from rewrite. Will remove later. Or…can make it green when you are generating power (solar)…lol
Has someone already installed the HomeWizard Energy app on a Homey Pro running on V5. On my Homey early 2016 running on V4.2.0, this app works perfectly.
I am sorry; I agree that was not very clearly described.
See the screenshot below. Since I do not have solar panels, these values will always be zero (don’t know why one is showing a small amount).
It would be nice if these values can be hidden here for those who have no solar panels and therefore do not deliver to the grid.
Finally sorted. One of my network cards in my ESXi (vmware) box died (the one that does WAN). Luckly I had the old ESXi host lying around. Only recovering the config and fixing the rules took a while.
