Blue connect Go - Pool Analyzer

Hello,

this is my first topic.

I have openhab installed for long time and in the community, I ever found information to make working all my devices.

Today is my day to help someone to integrate The blue connect pool analyzer.

My setup:

Openhab 3.4.4

Mqtt Mosquito

ESP32 with ESPhome firmware

Blue connect GO device ==> Blue Connect Go

Before to start, you must have a MQTT broker correctly working.

The idea is to use an ESP32 with BLE to communicate with the blue connect device and publish the measurements on MQTT.
I was able to make working my setup thanks a discussion here: Blue Connect pool measurements - Third party integrations - Home Assistant Community

this is my thing setup for esp32 module:

Theoretically the only rules that you need to read the data from blue connect is teh rules called “piscina lettura” and “piscina graph” :slight_smile:
There is also a rule to controll a dosing pump, i shared maybe you have some improvements

var Number pump_calibration = 50	// [ml al minuto] valore di calibrazione della pompa peristaltica  *******da tarare*********
var Number concentrazione = 150		// [ml per ogni m3 per abbassare 1 di PH]  [Aggiungere 3 lt. di prodotto ogni 100 m3 d'acqua per abbassare di 0,2 unitĂ  il valore di pH]
var Timer pump = null				// timer
var Timer ble = null				// timer
var Number cap = 14 				// [mc] volume piscina
var Number hyst = 0					// valore di isteresi sul setpoint impostato
var Number ble_on = 180				// [secondi] di attivazione bluetooth
var Number pump_off = 6.8			// valore pump grafico
var Number pump_on = 8				// valore pump grafico
var Number max_time = 15			// [minuti] - valore massimo dosabile per proteggere il sistema
var Number ph_offset = -0.07		// [pH] offset misura ph

the raw data for the battery status is still in debugging :slight_smile:

Great, Love it!
