Does ebusd support more than one heat pump on the same ebus?

[smcarley]

I have two Vaillant aroTHERM plus 12 kW working together in my installation. I can only get data from one of them (via HMU). Does ebusd support multiple heat pumps?

These are the devices on the bus and the csv files loaded.

If you can see it in recognized devices on different addresses you can reach data from them. I think you need to located files 76.vwzio.csv and f6.next3.csv to obtain data from your heatpumps. If file it that prefix doesn't exist but they exist with different refix you can rename them or create simlinks.

one of your HP will be HMU00 and the other is probably connected via VR32 bus coupler, which is tricky to read.
To read devices behind v32, for me only working when I set "--latency=100000" for the ebusd. Then you can copy 08.hmu file to 18.v32 and see if you can query the other HP under the v32 device.
(f6.next3 is the VR 921 sensonet module or similar)

You're bang on. The second heat pump appears to be behind the v32 coupler. Setting latency to 100000 and copying 08.hmu to 18.v32 appears to find something but I get no updates other than the below. Is anything else required to receive messages from the heat pump behind the v32 coupler?

If you try to poll values manually using ebusd, does it work? I can imaginge updates are not working the same way via vr32 (or at least less frequent and slower).

Assuming I'm doing correctly, no.

ebusctl read -f -c v32 State
