What's Changed

New Features

  • HmIP-WRCD Text Display: Full support for the wall-mount remote control with display via NotifyEntity, including services for sending text with icons, colors, sounds, and alignment options
  • HmIP-MP3P Sound Player: Full support for the combination signalling device with services for sound playback (play_sound, stop_sound) and LED control (set_sound_led) with colors, brightness, and timing options
  • Siren Control: Automatic select entities for siren tone and light pattern selection with full translations (no manual InputHelper setup required)
  • Reauthentication: Added reauthentication flow to update expired credentials without removing the integration
  • Reconfigure Flow: Quick reconfiguration of connection settings without full re-setup
  • Air Quality Sensors: New entity descriptions for DIRT_LEVEL and SMOKE_LEVEL sensors
  • Enhanced Diagnostics: Comprehensive system metrics in diagnostics including RPC statistics, event bus metrics, cache performance, health status, and service call analytics
  • System Metrics Sensors: New diagnostic sensors for monitoring system health (%), connection latency (ms), and last event age (s) - providing real-time visibility into CCU communication status

Improvements

  • Configuration Experience: Enhanced config flow with improved error messages, progress indicators (Step X of Y), and menu-based navigation
  • Error Handling: Reduced log flooding during connection issues with improved error handling decorator for entity actions
  • Translations: Fixed naming of untranslated entities and improved translation coverage for press events

Bump aiohomematic to 2025.12.50

Observability & Metrics

  • Unified Metrics: New CentralUnit.metrics property providing centralized access to all runtime statistics
  • RPC Monitoring: Track success/failure rates, latency, and request coalescing effectiveness
  • Event Tracking: Monitor handler execution times, error rates, and event throughput
  • Cache Statistics: View hit rates and sizes across all caches
  • Health Overview: Client availability rates and overall system health scores
  • Service Call Metrics: Track per-method call counts, durations, and error rates via @inspector decorator

Connection Reliability

  • Improved Reconnection: New state machine architecture for faster, more reliable recovery after CCU restarts
  • CircuitBreaker: Automatic protection against repeated connection failures with staged reconnection
  • Reduced Log Noise: Less ERROR logging during expected reconnection scenarios

Device Management

  • Device Inbox: Accept and rename new devices pending pairing directly from the integration
  • Install Mode: Separate install mode control per interface (HmIP-RF and BidCos-RF) with countdown timer
  • Backup Support: Create and download CCU system backups, firmware download and update triggers

Climate & Schedules

  • Schedule Caching: Faster schedule operations with intelligent caching
  • Simple Schedule Format: Easier to read and modify weekly heating schedules
  • Schedule Sync: Bidirectional get/set schedule operations with filtered data format

Siren Control

  • Visible Alarm Settings: Acoustic and optical alarm selection now available as controllable entities
  • Flexible Turn-On: Siren activation uses entity values as defaults when service parameters omitted

Bug Fixes

  • Cover/Dimmer Restart: Fixed is_valid returning False after CCU restart when status is UNKNOWN
  • Empty Numeric Values: Fixed conversion error when CCU sends empty strings for FLOAT/INTEGER parameters
  • RGBW/LSC Auto-Off: Fixed lights turning off unexpectedly when using transition times
  • Reconnect Availability: Entities no longer remain unavailable after CCU reconnect
  • STATUS Parameters: Fixed handling of integer values from backend for status updates
  • Firmware Updates: Fixed firmware data not refreshing after update check

New Device Support

  • HmIP-MP3P Kombisignalgeber: Sound player with MP3 playback (channel 2) and RGB LED control (channel 6)
  • HmIP-WRCD Text Display: Wall-mount Remote Control with Display - send text, icons, colors, and sounds to the LCD
  • DeviceProfileRegistry for centralized device-to-profile mappings
  • DpActionSelect data point type for write-only selection parameters

Developer Experience

  • Fluent Configuration: New CentralConfigBuilder with method chaining and factory presets for CCU/Homegear
  • Request Tracing: Context variables pattern for request tracking through async call chains with automatic log prefixing
  • Type Converters: Extensible to_homematic_value() / from_homematic_value() using singledispatch pattern

Internal Improvements

  • Protocol-based architecture for better testability and decoupling
  • Event bus system replacing legacy callback patterns
  • Strict type checking throughout codebase
  • Translatable log messages and exceptions
  • Generic protocols for improved mypy type inference on data point values
  • Declarative field descriptors for custom and calculated data points
  • DelegatedProperty descriptor for simple property delegation with caching support
  • Enhanced linter with DP004 path validation for DelegatedProperty definitions
  • Store package restructured into persistent/ and dynamic/ subpackages for better maintainability
  • Typed dataclasses (CachedCommand, PongTracker) replace untyped tuples and dicts
