I am new to OpenHAB and am just trying to get it to work with my home devices.
Has anyone managed to get the Heatmiser Neohub Gen2 to work with OpenHAB?
I have tried using the current Neohub binding that is available in the Add-ons, but unless I am doing something wrong, it does not appear to be able to connect to the hub.
Thank you.
All I have done so far is to install the OpenHAB software on a test machine in Windows, and then, from Add-ons --> Bindings in the PaperUI, I Installed the Neohub Binding. The installation completed with no errors, but the Binding did not appear in the Configuration --> Bindings (presumably because it is not a v2 Add-On?).
In the Events.log is this entry: [thome.event.ExtensionEvent] - Extension ‘binding-neohub1’ has been installed.
which indicates to me that the binding action was successful
I edited the neohub.cfg file under the services folder and added in the required hostname entry as the IP address for my Neohub.
I then spotted this entry in openhab.log: [INFO ] [ab.core.service.AbstractActiveService] - neohub Refresh Service has been started
No errors, so, I assume that the service is running.
I waited over 1 minute (based on the default refresh time in the readme) and nothing happened - no update to the logs. I waited a further 15 minutes and still no change.
I shutdown and restarted the OpenHAB runtime. I could see again that the neohub refresh service was started, but there were no further updates
I have very limited knowledge or experience with OpenHAB at this point, but wanted to know if anyone else had already been successful in linking to the Heatmiser Neohub Gen2 as I expect that the existing binding was designed for the 1st Generation Neohubs.
After 24 hours, the neohub service appears to have woken up and is now logging:
[ERROR] [ding.neohub.internal.NeoHubConnector] - Failed to connect to neohub [host ‘192.168.1.26’ port ‘4242’ timeout ‘5000’]
I expect that this indicates that the default port is not working. This is a Neohub Gen2, so it is possible that it uses a different port. Does anyone know what port to use for the Heatmiser Neohub Gen2 and whether the Neohub binding works with it?
