Itho Daalderop Gateway - Spiders

Apps
#21

Hi,

You need a gateway that will show up in https://mijn.ithodaalderop.nl/

Since that is where the app reads the data from (via the API over internet, not via USB or a (zwave,zigbee,bluetooth) wireless protocol)

Hi, I have a gateway since one week. It worked fine in Homey, but not since yesterday. I am able to control my gateway through the itho app and website, so it is properly connected. I also made sure the password is correct. Is the API down or so?

#23

I am using the exact same api as the mijn.ithodaalderop.nl site is using, so unless theyā€™ve changed the protocol it should be working in the app. I checked it and for me it is still working. Maybe you can try to remove and reinstall the app in homey, or else send a bug report so I can check the logs.

Found the issue: 2 days ago I changed the zone name where the fan is located, so now I had to re-add the fan to Homey

@LvanderRee, Iā€™m looking into a solution to automate my Itho boxes. Iā€™ve got two of them. Does your application allow adding both?

I still need to buy the gw box, but if itā€™s not going to work, then I definitely wonā€™t buy it. It is offered a lot on marktplaats.nl for ~100 euroā€™s. But it is still a bit of a risk if Iā€™m not able to control both.

@LvanderRee Hi Leon,
Very Nice job. I have 4 spider thermostats and one ventilation unit installed.
Is it possible to import itho daalderop powerplugs into Homey?

#27

Hello @Reinemanz and @Martijn_Hoogenbosch (sorry for the delay)

I can handle everything that you can see in your https://mijn.ithodaalderop.nl/#/dashboard , since I simply call the same API via the Homey widgets Iā€™ve created.

However since I donā€™t have daalderop powerplugs nor two itho boxes, I cannot test this myself, nor have I written code to support this.

Thanks for coming back to it. Iā€™ve solved it in another way. Iā€™ve used the periflex connection to connect a shelly 2.5, works good enough.

@LvanderRee First of all: Thank you very much for all the work you put in this project. Iā€™m new to Homey, but the main reason of buying a Homey is to control my Spider system. I use a multi-zone Spider system at home. What I still couldnā€™t figure out are these things:

  • Can I read the mode where any of the Spiders is in (clock program, temporary manual setting or fixed manual setting (clock program off))?
  • Does the Spider resume to the clock program after I change temp setting through a flow?
  • Can I set a fixed temp setting (without resuming clock program at the next programmed moment in the Spider clock program)?
  • I think support for power sockets is not yet supported, right? If you ever plan to do so, these would be very nice features to have:
    1 Set on/off on each socket (with resume of clock program at next programmed moment)
    2 Read current mode (on or off)
    3 Read current consumption (Watts or Amps) or even better: have it integrated in Homey Energy
    4 Enable/disable clock program
    5 Read operating mode (clock program active/inactive)
  • I also think the connected smart meter is not yet supported, right? It would also be a beautiful feature to have that integrated in Homey Energy.

I will keep following this topic. Keep up the good work!

Hi Leon, I am using Homey since a couple of months. Connecting the Spider thermostat is still a problem. Connecting the Spider Ventilation unit is OK and works well. Can you help me connecting the thermostat?
Ofcourse I use a Itho/Spider gateway.

Thanks in advance,
Jos

you can read the clock program, when you navigate to the details overview:

gnome-shell-screenshot-TQQYW0
gnome-shell-screenshot-TQQYW0401Ɨ778 39.1 KB

I actually havenā€™t changed the temperature in flows via Homey myself all this time, so I havenā€™t missed the option to read and alter the clock-mode myself, but it should be possible to add this feature for flows as well.

Reading out the smart meter should be possible as well, just didnā€™t put effort in it yet, but maybe I can find some time in the coming days.

Adding support for power sockets is hard, since I havenā€™t got them myself, so I cannot debug the API calls that are exchanged via mijn.ithodaalderop.nl

#32

Hi, is it already possible to retrieve the smart energy meter readings from the Itho gateway as well? Would be really nice!
