# Set up Home Assistant with the P1P2MQTT bridge

This page describes how to configure your P1P2MQTT bridge and Home Assistant (HA).

Text in *italics* applies only to Daikin Altherma/E-series models.

##### Firmware update from earlier version

As a new user you may skip this section.

You can delete old MQTT topics and rebuild the new ones with the `MQTT_Delete_Own_Rebuild` button in `HC_Bridge`; this button may be unavailable until the bridge has been running for 2 minutes. Deleting/rebuilding may take ~5 minutes. If upgrading from v0.9.44 or older, use `MQTT_All_Delete_Rebuild` because of the different topic structure, but be aware that this also deletes all homeassistant-config messages from other devices (if any) on the same MQTT server.

The EEPROM data in the ESP includes MQTT server credentials and should survive a firmware update, but if that fails (especially for rc candidates shared by mail), you may encounter a bridge which connects to WiFi but not to MQTT. In that case you can either:
- telnet to the bridge, and use the commands `P7 IPv4-MQTT-server`, and if necessary also `P8 MQTT-port-nr`, `P9 MQTT-username` and `P10 MQTT-password`, or
- double-tap the reset-button until the blue LED lights up, connect to the AP  with SSID `P1P2MQTT-2x` and password `P1P2P3P4`, and enter WiFi and MQTT server credentials.

##### Set up MQTT server

An MQTT server is required. If you do not have one yet, you can set it up in HA under `Settings`/`Add-ons`/`ADD-ON STORE`. Find `Mosquitto broker`, `INSTALL` it, enable the Watchdog, and click `START`.

Under `Settings`/`People`, click blue button (lower right corner) `ADD PERSON`, enter user name `P1P2`, switch `Allow person to login` on, click `CREATE`, set password to `P1P2` (or preferably something better), and click `CREATE`.

##### Power off Daikin system

For safety, remove power from your system (likely from the outdoor unit) to remove power from the P1/P2 interface. The display of your room thermostat (if you have them) should be off.

##### Connect P1P2MQTT bridge to P1/P2 wires

The P1P2MQTT bridge can be connected in parallel to your room thermostat, either near your thermostat or near your indoor unit. *If you have a monoblock, the P1/P2 connection may be outside. It is recommended to use a P1/P2 cable such that the P1P2MQTT bridge can be in-house.*

Polarity of the P1/P2 cables is irrelevant, you can connect the 2 P1/P2 wires without looking which one is P1 or P2.

##### Power on Daikin system

A WiFi Access Point with SSID `P1P2MQTT` (or `P1P2MQTT-2x` after a double-reset) should become available.

##### Provide WiFi and MQTT server credentials

Connect to the AP `P1P2MQTT` or `P1P2MQTT-2x`. Default password for `P1P2MQTT` is `P1P2P3P4` but you can change it later. Password for `P1P2MTT-2x` is `P1P2P3P4` but cannot be changed. After connecting, enter WiFi credentials, and do not forget to also provide MQTT server credentials at the same time.

If you use the MQTT server from HA and do not know its IPv4 address, it can be found under `Settings`/`System`/`Network`/`Configure network interfaces`/`3-dots`/`IP-information`. Default port is 1883, MQTT user is `P1P2` and MQTT password is what you entered yourself.

##### Add MQTT integration

In HA, under `Settings`/`Devices & Services`, click (lower right) blue button `ADD INTEGRATION`, search for MQTT, select `MQTT`, enter MQTT server details, user and password, and `SUBMIT`.

##### Wait for auto-discovery

HA will start to recognize several controls and entities under various devices called `HC_*`, visible under `Settings`/`Devices & Services`/`MQTT`/`devices`. Give it some time to find all controls and entities.

Some entities become visible only when the bridge is operating in auxiliary control mode *and in counter request mode*. These modes can be switched on with the `Control_Function` switch *and the `Counter_Request_Function`* switch in the `HC_Bridge` device. After switching on, wait at least 10 minutes for all entities to be recognized in HA, then proceed to add the following subdevices to your HA dashboards.

(*) Depending on model and operation mode, more or fewer controls may be visible.

##### Set up HA dashboards

After waiting for the entities to be recognized, the `HC_*` devices can now be added to your HA dashboards. You can skip adding `HC_Setup`.

##### *Finish set-up*

*Some controls may not be useful for your system (additional zone, cooling), these can now be deleted by editing your dashboards*

*Once all dashboards are set up, it is recommended to switch `HA_setup` (in `HC_Setup`) off to improve the HA control interface, and to make this change permanent with the `EEPROM_ESP_Save_Changes` button in `HC_Bridge`.*

##### Ready!

You should now be ready to monitor your system, and, if you switch(ed) `Control_Function` on, to control your system.

To limit the number of write instructions to your Daikin, a `Write_Budget` is available; if run-out, you can increase it under `HC_Bridge`. The budget is increased by 1 every `Write_Budget_Period` minutes.


*The controls for room temperature are only visible if the system operates in `RT` mode. If the system is switched to `RT` mode later, this may not become visible on the dashboard until you add the newly discovered controls.*

*Changes made under `HC_Fieldsettings` will require a Daikin system restart. The `Daikin_Restart_Careful` button is enabled only if the system is not heating or cooling.*

##### Trouble-shooting

If the red LED flashes in the P1P2MQTT bridge, this signals read errors or bus collission errors. You can telnet to the P1P2MQTT bridge to find out why.

If the P1P2MQTT bridge fails to connect to WiFi, it will recreate the AP, with a SSID/password (default `P1P2MQTT`/`P1P2P3P4`, unless the password was reconfigured by you), and you can re-enter all credentials.

If the P1P2MQTT bridge connects to WiFi but not to the MQTT server, you can double-reset the bridge to recreate the original AP (always with default SSID/password `P1P2MQTT-2x`/`P1P2P3P4`) and you can re-enter WiFi and MQTT credentials.

If the P1P2MQTT bridge cannot be put in `Control_Function` (if the switch bounces back), you can telnet to the P1P2MQTT bridge to find out if there are any informational or error messages.

If some controls or entities appear to be missing, you can *switch `HA_Setup` on again (no need to save this) and* press `MQTT_Rebuild` (under `HC_Bridge`) to repeat the MQTT configuration topics for Home Assistant, and re-add devices to your dashboard.

If you want to delete old MQTT topics (after an update from an earlier firmware, or if you change the topic structure, device name or bridge name yourself), you can press `MQTT_Delete_Rebuild` (under `HC_Bridge`) to delete all MQTT topics from all bridges and recreate new ones.

#### Control and entity overview (Daikin Altherma / E-series)

##### HC_Setup

| Function                                 | Description
|:-----------------------------------------|:----------------------------------------------------------|
| HA_Setup                                 | Enables proper initial set-up of HA dashboards (or otherwise controls may be incomplete), enables button for locking production/consumption counters for COP_Before_Bridge/COP_After_Bridge calculations, and enables factory_reset button. After setup, strongly recommended to switch to off. No need to add to any dashboard.

##### HC_Bridge

| Function                                 | Description
|:-----------------------------------------|:----------------------------------------------------------|
| Control_Function                         | Determines whether P1P2MQTT bridge operates in auxiliary control mode. Not needed for monitoring, but required for controlling your system
| Counter_Request_Function                 | Determines whether P1P2MQTT bridge will request kWh/hour/start counters once every minute. Violates P1/P2 timing protocol, but works on most systems
| EEPROM_ESP_Save_Changes                  | Saves changes made (offsets, Cons_Prod_Counters) to ESP EEPROM
| EEPROM_ESP_Set_Cons_Prod_Counters        | If not already done automatically, pressing this button will store the current consumption/production counters for calculation of COP_Before_Bridge and COP_After_Bridge enabling you to monitor improvements of your system's average COP; to save changes, also press EEPROM_ESP_Save_Changes. Button is disabled if HA_Setup is switched off.
| EEPROM_ESP_Undo_Changes                  | Undo changes made to EEPROM (not possible after saving)
| Factory_Reset_ESP_After_Restart          | Use with care! This will schedule a factory reset on the next ESP restart. It will then reset all ESP-stored values to their original value, including device name, bridge name, AP, and more, but (as of v0.9.52:) excluding MQTT server credentials. Can be cancelled with Factory_Reset_ESP_Cancel but cannot be undone after ESP restart.  Button is disabled if HA_Setup is switched off.
| Factory_Reset_ESP_Cancel                 | Unschedule any scheduled factory reset
|MQTT_Rebuild                              | Retransmits all Home Assistant configuration messages; can be used if HA missed one or more of these messages.
|MQTT_Delete_Rebuild                       | Idem, but first deletes all Home Assistant configuration messages from (any of) your P1P2MQTT bridge(s), followed by a rebuild of this bridge (but not any others if you have multiple). Useful after a firmware upgrade to delete old entities. Button is disabled for ca 2 minutes after ESP restart of after a MQTT reconnect.
| R1Toffset_Mid                            | Correction value for temperature sensor R1T (after heat exchanger, before gas boiler or backup heater). If your system is not heating or cooling, but water flow is high, R1T and R2T and R4T should give the same temperature reading. Many users report temperature differences, leading to wrong heat production and wrong COP calculations. Tune these values such that Power_Heatpump and Power_Gasboiler (/BUH) are minimal when flow is high (during the start-up phase of your system)
| R2Toffset_LWT                            | Correction value for temperature sensor R2T (leaving water temperature)
| R4Toffset_RWT                            | Correction value for temperature sensor R4T (return water temperature)
| Restart_P1P2Monitor_ATmega               | Restarts ATmega. Should not be needed, but can be used to quickly increase write budget
| Restart_P1P2MQTT_ESP                     | Restarts ESP. Does factory_reset if scheduled. Should not be needed, but can be attempted in case of communication or other problems.
| RToffset_Room                            | Can be used to offset reported room temperature settings, has no other effects
| Write_Budget                             | Write budget limits the amount of control operations to reduce memory wear; can be increased manually if needed
| Write_Budget_Period                      | Write budget is regularly increased, by default once every hour. Period is in minutes. For Daikin E-systems, it is likely that flash wear levling is implemented to it is likely safe to reduce the period
| Error_Budget                             | Indicates how many read errors are accepted before switching Control_Function and Counter_Request_Function off. Should be 20, or a bit lower after a system restart. Errors should not be present, except for a few messages when the Daikin system restarts.
| ESP_EEPROM_Saved                         | Indicates whether all changes made have been saved to EEPROM
| ESP_Ectory_Reset_Scheduled               | Indicates if a factory reset is scheduled for the next ESP reset
| ESP_Throttling                           | Indicates that the ESP is throttling data - messages can be missing or delayed. Happens after an ESP restart or after a MQTT disconnect/reconnect action
| ESP_Waiting_For_Counters_D13             | Indicates that the ESP is waiting for consumption/production counters to store these counters for COP_Before_Bridge/COP_After_Bridge calculation. Counters will be read when (1) Counter_Request_Function is switched on, (2) Daikin system is restarted, (3) room thermostat requests counters, or (4) EEPROM_ESP_Set_Cons_Prod_Counters is pressed.
| V_Interfce                               | Reports voltage on P1/P2 interface for bus-powered devices. For bridges powered from a DC power supply, reports DC voltage.
| Writes_Refused_Budget                    | Indicates how many writes have been refused due to missing write budget; should be 0
| Writes_Refused_Busy                      | Indicates how many writes have been refused due to lack of buffering; should be 0

#### Control and entity overview (Daikin AC / F-series)

This section is still very much raw format and likely to contains errors; too many entities are currently reported in HA, also for further reverse engineering. Some simplification of the HA interface and further reverse engineering is required. Feedback is welcome.

|:-----------------------------------------|:----------------------------------------------------------|
| HA_Setup                                 | Enables proper initial set-up of HA dashboards (or otherwise controls may be incomplete), and enables factory_reset button. After setup, strongly recommended to switch to off. No need to add to any dashboard.

##### HC_Bridge

| Function                                 | Description
|:-----------------------------------------|:----------------------------------------------------------|
| Control_Function                         | Determines whether P1P2MQTT bridge operates in auxiliary control mode. Not needed for monitoring, but required for controlling your system
| Model                                    | Allows protocol selection based on major version of Daikin unit; control works only correct configured
| Model_suggestion                         | Recommended protocol selection
| EEPROM_ESP_Save_Changes                  | Saves changes made to ESP EEPROM
| EEPROM_ESP_Undo_Changes                  | Undo changes made to EEPROM (not possible after saving)
| Factory_Reset_ESP_After_Restart          | Use with care! This will schedule a factory reset on the next ESP restart. It will then reset all ESP-stored values to their original value, including device name, bridge name, AP and MQTT server credentials, and more. Can be cancelled with Factory_Reset_ESP_Cancel but cannot be undone after ESP restart. Button is disabled if HA_Setup is switched off.
| Factory_Reset_ESP_Cancel                 | Unschedule any scheduled factory reset
|MQTT_Rebuild                              | Retransmits all Home Assistant configuration messages; can be used if HA missed one or more of these messages.
|MQTT_Delete_Rebuild                       | Idem, but first deletes all Home Assistant configuration messages from (any of) your P1P2MQTT bridge(s), followed by a rebuild of this bridge (but not any others if you have multiple). Useful after a firmware upgrade to delete old entities.
| Restart_P1P2Monitor_ATmega               | Restarts ATmega. Should not be needed, but can be used to quickly increase write budget
| Restart_P1P2MQTT_ESP                     | Restarts ESP. Does factory_reset if scheduled. Should not be needed, but can be attempted in case of communication or other problems.
| Write_Budget                             | Write budget limits the amount of control operations to reduce memory wear; can be increased manually if needed
| Write_Budget_Period                      | Write budget is regularly increased, by default once every hour. Period is in minutes. For Daikin E-systems, it is likely that flash wear levling is implemented to it is likely safe to reduce the period
| Error_Budget                             | Indicates how many read errors are accepted before switching Control_Function and Counter_Request_Function off. Should be 20, or a bit lower after a system restart. Errors should not be present, except for a few messages when the Daikin system restarts.
| ESP_EEPROM_Saved                         | Indicates whether all changes made have been saved to EEPROM
| ESP_Ectory_Reset_Scheduled               | Indicates if a factory reset is scheduled for the next ESP reset
| ESP_Throttling                           | Indicates that the ESP is throttling data - messages can be missing or delayed. Happens after an ESP restart or after a MQTT disconnect/reconnect action
| V_Interfce                               | Reports voltage on P1/P2 interface for bus-powered devices. For bridges powered from a DC power supply, reports DC voltage.
| Writes_Refused_Budget                    | Indicates how many writes have been refused due to missing write budget; should be 0
| Writes_Refused_Busy                      | Indicates how many writes have been refused due to lack of buffering; should be 0
