Homematic: StatusDisplay HM-Dis-EP-WM55 supported?

Add-ons Bindings
21

I created a slightly modified version of my rule that is running on OH 2.1:

rule "Info-Anzeige"
when
    Item Fenster_Arbeitszimmer changed or
    Item Fenster_Bad           changed or
    Item Fenster_Schlafzimmer  changed or
    Item Tuer_Wohnzimmer       changed or
    Item Balkon_Temperatur     changed
then

   val temp = "Line 1"
   sendCommand(DT_L1, temp)
   sendCommand(DT_Icon1, "OK")
   var fensterIcon = "OK";
   sendCommand(DT_Icon2, fensterIcon)
   sendCommand(DT_L2, "Line 2")
   sendCommand(DT_L3, "Line 3")
   sendCommand(DT_Icon3, "ON")
   sendCommand(DT_Submit, ON)  // always execute at the end
end

Item DT_L1 ist connected with channel DISPLAY_LINE_1, DT_L2 with channel DISPLAY_LINE_2, …

The result of this rule looks like this:

The texts “CCU Line 2” and “CCU Line 3” can only be set on the CCU.

Thanks a lot for the good feedback! Well, my lines are off by 1, so when I write to line 2, it appears where you have line 1. Text written to line 1 does not appear anywhere…
I assume it is related to this update, where @Thomas_G mentioned that the lines have been shifted? I think it made things worse for the EP device. Could you make that last change only for the OLED version and revert for EP?

23

What binding version are you using? I could try it in my environment, too.

@gerrieg What do you think? Would it be feasible to use different channel names for the EP device?

24

I am using the 2.3.0.201803141920 snapshot.
How can I manually change a single binding (I installed with apt-get)?

25

These devices are driving me crazy :disappointed_relieved:

A summary for me, there are two devices with display:

  • HM-DIS-WM55 -> OLED -> 5 lines -> but @Thomas_G says 6 lines???

  • HM-Dis-EP-WM55 -> E-Paper -> 3 lines -> lines are shifted by one. If i revert my change only for the EP device, it should work again.

Can someone confirm my assumptions for the EP device?

26

@gerrieg Yes, they are really “interesting” devices :-).

Strictly speaking, the EP device has got 5 lines. But via the binding only the 3 lines in the middle can be set (see my picture above). In version 2.1 of the binding there were 3 channels for the text and 3 channels for the icons:
DISPLAY_LINE_1 to DISPLAY_LINE_3 and DISPLAY_ICON_1 to DISPLAY_ICON_3.

In the next days I can find some time for testing (and probably migrating my production environment to 2.3).

The OLED HM-DIS-WM55 device has 6 lines. Your changes made the device completely usable. (One more line and shifting the content one line up).
For the EP device you must revert the shifting-change. But only for EP, not for “my” device.
I think that is the only “To-Do”.
That’s what I interpret here.

28

Hi @gerrieg, did you have time to fix this issue? Would help me a lot because right now, I cannot use the device properly. When you make the changes in a snapshot I can test it right away.

@yannick_hein Thanks for the ping, i forgot to create a PR :frowning:
see https://github.com/openhab/openhab2-addons/pull/3444

By the way, that did it! Works for the EP device now, thx!
