I can imagine that the info differs from the brand and type of cv is used.
I just bought a new one a Rameha tsera.
Boiler brand is not relevant as long as it support OpenTherm.
I take the data from the internal databases on Toon.
Boilers typically provide more detailed info through the OT interface but I can only show the data which is stored by the Toon firmware.

The Remeha Tzerra (and many other boilers) doesn't support CH water pressure. Data-ID 5, bit 2 does support Low water pressure, perhaps that info can be used instead.

For now I have no access to the OpenTherm interface itself. That is shielded by the Toon firmware.
I get my data from Toons internal databases. If the boiler doesn't provide CH pressure data to Toon then that database will be empty I guess.

Getting there slowly........
I removed the tapwater readings as these are not stored on Toon.
For the same reason also had to remove the outside temperature and the boiler modulation level.

Yes :wink:

you can Grab Boiler Modulation Level, Internal Setpoint (whatever that may be)
from the IP_TOON/happ_thermstat?action=getThermostatInfo.

I grab all info out of that file; and put it in Domoticz.
maybe we can use it for you Tile app thing

@Hypermobile: Should be possible. It has worked like that before ...

this works, just tested it and I do get a proper modulation level back.
The only problem is timing: the getThermostatInfo contains realtime data, the other data points could be max two minutes old.

EDIT: I can keep the getThermostatInfo data a short period in memory to make sure it is pretty well aligned with the database values. Should work.

I don't think that a big issue.


I would like something in that app to send all those data to Domoticz.

This is something in PHP that should work. Don't think you can Copy/Paste.

Code: Select all

$IPDomoticz = '192.168.x.x:8084';
$idx = 357;
$Pressure = boiler-pressure;

$WriteValue = curl_init("http://$IPDomoticz/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=$idx&nvalue=0&svalue=$Pressure");
curl_exec($WriteValue);
Or maybe someone has a better idea to present those numbers for the outer world.

Nope, toon doesn't have a php interpreter on board. I built one for it a few years ago, but it's so big, you really don't want it.

I could write a JSON file in the www folder so you can come and grab it

That would do the job.

But the Easy Energy app; has functionality inside to setup a Domoticz IDX.
No additional scripts / cron's etc needed.

i think it's better to Push data rather then to Pull every 5 minutes or so.

That it possible as well, however, whether I push to Domoticz or Domoticz pulls from me doesn't make a big difference.
Advantage of the latter is that other applications could pull the data as well. Seems more flexible from my end to avoid building interfaces to multiple home automation systems.

Anyway, I just included the retrieval of the modulation level from getThermostatInfo. Only need to align the timing with the timestamp from the database entries.

i am happy to get that json file to try it in my domoticz

Hi all,

almost there, every minute the following file is now generated: http://toon-ip/boilerstatus/boilervalues.txt
Sample content:

Code: Select all

{"sampleTime":"20-01-2018 15:56:00","boilerSetpoint":52.12,"roomTempSetpoint":20.5,"boilerPressure":1.79,"roomTemp":20.47,"boilerOutTemp":49,"boilerInTemp":39,"boilerModulationLevel":31}
Just need to package it for ToonStore now (after the weekend)...... or unless there are numerous votes to push to Domoticz instead ;-)
BTW: the JSON file is actually saved in /var/volatile/tmp/ (ram disk) to avoid wear and tear of the flash memory. The installer will create the symlink in the www folder to this location.

Looks great! I would love to install this and use it during my upcoming CV-tuning and monitor thereafter. Do you need any help testing? Would be more than willing to do so.
