Large amount of entities
Opened this issue · 3 comments
NIBE F750 from 2015: I get a very large amount of control entities. In total (including sensors) I have 364 entities. See attached pictures for examples.
Firmware F750: Firmware: 9701R3
Firmware MyUplink: 1.2.4
Yes. So what is the issue?
It gets very hard to manage, as can be see in the image it appears to exist doublets as well. When compared to a friend of mine with the same heat pump he doesn't have the same problem, he only has a handful of controls.
Any suggestions of what could be wrong?
Thanks!
Hi @hedenolof, this integration creates entities for each and every parameter point it gets from the myUplink API by querying /v2/devices/{deviceId}/points. You can check for yourself, if all the entities in Home Assistant are also present in the response of that API endpoint (see https://github.com/jaroschek/home-assistant-myuplink?tab=readme-ov-file#debugging-misbehaving-entities).
So I assume your problem just shows how messy that API has become and how badly it is managed/used by the manufacturers or whoever decides which parameter to include and how.
But I may have a solution for you. I'm currently preparing the release of version 1.3.0 which includes some additional configurations incl. a "parameter whitelist" where you can specify the parameter you need and can exclude all the oher by not listing these. May be you can try the latest pre-release version https://github.com/jaroschek/home-assistant-myuplink/releases/tag/1.3.0-beta3 to solve your problem?
