New Teleinfo Binding - Tester and Feedback welcome

Dids · February 1, 2020, 7:33pm

Hi
My teleinfobindings is working intermittently
This is what I get from the log file

Could you help?

nokyyz · February 1, 2020, 8:59pm

Hi @Dids,
Can you give me more details ? OH version, teleinfo binding version, teleinfo USB hardware, step to reproduce, etc.

Dids · February 2, 2020, 12:56pm

Hi
I am using (more appropriate would be I am trying to use) openHAB 2.5
The binding version is your latest one i believe:
org.openhab.binding.teleinfo-2.5.0-20191104-2035.
I use RS232 modem from the meter to a serial device server (Sollae https://www.eztcp.com/en/products/cse-h20.php). TCP through my local network to my computer. On the computer I use a virtual serial port emulator (VSPE from eterlogic.com) that allows to split serial ports and use the same port on several applications.
It works with other software (homidom for example) but not fully with the binding as I get frames corrupted. It goes from unkown to online and rapidly after to offline.
The serial device server allows several configuration

nokyyz · February 2, 2020, 6:34pm

Your achitecture is not simple
First, can you activated DEBUG logs on teleinfo binding and send me this log file plz ?
Second, your serial port seems be sharing on many softwares ("…and use the same port on several applications…"). Have you tested the teleinfo binding when this serial port is not sharing with others softwares ?

rgouyet · April 2, 2020, 8:23pm

I use your binding since a few weeks.
With time, the “currentPower” data is fired many many times very quickly. It increase with time.
I have to disable and re-enabled binding to start a new session and all gets ok.
But in a few hours or days, i will have the same behaviour.
Any idea ?

nokyyz · April 3, 2020, 3:39pm

Hi @rgouyet, the “currentPower” is a computed data from IINST data and “currentPower” configuration value (named “power factor”). The defaut value of “power factor” is defined to 230 (volts). The currentPower value is (just) computed like that:

currentPower = IINST * powerFactor

So, if your currentPower channel is updated “many many times very quickly”, then your IINST channel must have the same behavior, no ?

Can you give me some details about your electricty meter ? single-phase or tree-phase ? your pricing option (Base, HC, Tempo, EJP) ?

rgouyet · April 3, 2020, 6:07pm

Teleinfo ADCO 81177588XXXX

Single-phase Electricity meter with HC/HP option - CBEMM Evolution ICC (aka “Compteur Bleu Electronique Monophasé Multitarif Evolution ICC”)

I don’t see IINST spaming in the log

My items are defined in .items file.
And the value 230 is the only thing editable in the binding page.

nokyyz · April 3, 2020, 6:59pm

Can you send me suspicions logs please ? And the steps to reproduce ?

For information, the source code for ‘currentPower’ channel updating is in the https://github.com/nokyyz/openhab2-addons/blob/master/bundles/org.openhab.binding.teleinfo/src/main/java/org/openhab/binding/teleinfo/internal/handler/cbemm/TeleinfoAbstractCbemmElectricityMeterHandler.java file. Here a copy of this code:

BigDecimal powerFactor = (BigDecimal) getThing().getChannel(CHANNEL_CBEMM_CURRENT_POWER).getConfiguration()
.get(CHANNEL_CBEMM_CURRENT_POWER_CONFIG_PARAMETER_POWERFACTOR);
updateState(CHANNEL_CBEMM_CURRENT_POWER, new DecimalType(frame.getIinst() * powerFactor.intValue()));

From your events.log, I think that each Teleinfo frame is repeated 10 times per second. In below sample, LastUpdate is updated 10 times with no changes for others Teleinfo values (IINST, PAPP,…):

The normal frequency between each Teleinfo frame is about 1-2 seconds.
The Teleinfo binding performs ALL teleinfo frames from your hardware. So, IMHO this defect becomes from your hardware.
Can you dump the Teleinfo stream in a file directly from your hardware device ?

rgouyet · April 4, 2020, 8:59am

I used it since several years (with other piece of software) and I never had this issue.
As you wrote, it sends all data frame every 1 or 2 s (only once per data)

If I disable the teleinfo:serialcontroller and enabled it again, it’s ok for a few hours and then it cames back to repeat the stream…

I think I will add a cron rule to diable and enable the serial control to avoid to spam my logs…

nokyyz · April 4, 2020, 9:37am

Can you try to disable/enable teleinfo:serialcontroller many times and checks if the frequency increases (n times in same second) for the …_LastUpdate item in your events.log ? maybe your problem is due to an suscription/unsuscription mechanism on disable/enable teleinfo:serialcontroller action…

nokyyz · May 4, 2020, 12:26pm

Hi everybody,
Thanks to @hollysaiqs contribution, the Teleinfo binding has been submitted to OpenHAB reviewers 2 days ago (pull request 7516).
Maybe Teleinfo binding will be officially OpenHAB addons in few days !

Thank for your feebacks

nokyyz · September 16, 2020, 1:46pm

Hi all,
The Teleinfo binding is an officially OpenHAB 2.x addon ! Available from openHAB 2.5.9 snapshot version (build #220).

Bye

olivier · December 27, 2020, 9:38pm

Hi All,
First of all, thank you for the development of this binding.
I recently purchased this USB CGE module and connected it to my Raspberry Pi 3 running OpenHab 2.5.10 with teleinfo binding 2.5.11
When I type cat /dev/ttyUSB0 I get the teleinfo data correctly:

ADCO 8xxxxxxx1 R
OPTARIF BASE 0
ISOUSC 45 ?
BASE 012235168 ’
PTEC TH… $
IINST 002 Y
IMAX 090 H
PAPP 00480 -

ADCO 811775366681 R
OPTARIF BASE 0
ISOUSC 45 ?
BASE 012235168 ’

But in openhab.log I get the following:
2020-12-27 22:33:31.124 [INFO ] [rial.TeleinfoSerialControllerHandler] - Try to restart Teleinfo receiving…

And in event.log I get
2020-12-27 22:25:30.766 [hingStatusInfoChangedEvent] - ‘teleinfo:serialcontroller:teleinfoUSB’ changed from ONLINE to UNKNOWN: Serial Error: Retry in progress…

My thing is

Bridge teleinfo:serialcontroller:teleinfoUSB [ serialport=“/dev/ttyUSB0” ]{
Thing cbemm_base_electricitymeter Compteur [ adco=“8xxxxxxxxx1”]
}

And my items:

Any support on diagnosing my problem would be very welcome.

Edit: I just uploaded the log trace of the plugin

Thank you and have a great New Year 2021

Hi Olivier,

It seems you have an electricity meter with the ICC evolution. Can you try to replace every cbemm_base_electricitymeter by cbemm_evolution_icc_base_electricitymeter?
You can also test the auto discovery feature of the binding, it should auto detect your meter configuration.

Olivier

olivier · December 28, 2020, 9:11pm

Hi Olivier,

Thank you for your quick reply. I first tested the replacement of 'cbemm_base_electricitymeterbycbemm_evolution_icc_base_electricitymeter` in my thing and item definition but it did not change the log file so I removed both and used the autodetect feature. I get the following resut in the attached picture.

So I cannot link Items. It seems that, somehow, the stream received from the serial port does not have the expected format.

Olivier

olivier · December 28, 2020, 11:20pm

Hi Olivier, After many tests, modifications and Openhab restarts, it works !!!
Thank you again for the plugin and your help.

Kind regards

hollysaiqs · December 29, 2020, 8:10pm

Good news! Have you done it with textual config or with paper ui?
Is your detected electricity meter a cbemm_evolution_icc_base_electricitymeter?

olivier · January 16, 2021, 3:28pm

Hi Olivier,

I think there was a problem in one of my config files. I rewrote them from scratch using a cbemm_evolution_icc_base_electricitymeter and it worked.

Thanks again for your help.
