This release requires you to delete you configuration and add it again!!
Local Mqtt
In order to use local MQTT, the following items are required:
- Bluetooth
- MQTT integration installed; since it is used to connect to the MQTT broker
- Broker authentication; since the Zendure devices have a 'fixed' username password, the broker must be able to autheticate them. For the Mosquitto Addon these users are automatically added to HA.
It can be difficult to troubleshoot local MQTT, since many thing must work properly. To make it a bit easier, a new entity is added: "Connection Status". This entity reflects the status of BLE, Local MQTT, Zendure Cloud and the Zendure App.
When the integration is started it automatically selects the correct MQTT server for all devices. When this does not work, it is possible to trigger it manually by selecting the Mqtt Reset switch. This switch can also be used to 'defrost frozen devices.
The rest of the configuration is more or less the same as before:
Batteries as devices + real kWh capacity
Thanks to @danez, the batteries are now shown as seperate devices. In multiple was this is better, since the new Zendure devices can hndle more than 4, the translations are easier, and in HA there is still a visible link between device and battery. For now the AB1000, AB2000, AB2000S and the AB3000 are recognized. All others are AB???? since I do not know their specifics.
Hub2000, Hub1200 & Ace1500
Thanks to @Linus86529 and @harrymayr the Hub1200 and Hub200 can be used for SmartMatching!! They also found a way to make the InputPower, dependent on the available batteries.
ACE1500
Also thanks to @danez I added the ACE1500 when it is used together with the Hub2000. No extra functionality yet, but the entities should be visible. The feedback is that this still does not work.
SolarFlow2400 + SolarFlow800Pro
Thanks to Taro, also the newest Zendure devices can now be controlled by the integration. Please be aware that account sharing is not possible for these devices, so you hav to use you main account.
