Tibber binding - deactivate live consumption poll

Add-ons Bindings
1

Dear openhab community,

I am new to openhab and discovered the tibber binding. I poll the live consumption from the tibber pulse directly from the tibber bridge via LAN, so i just need the prices per quarter hour and especially the price levels.

Is there a way to deactivate the polling of the live consumption? I didn’t find an option for this.
Shall I open a enhancement request on github?

Thanks for your answers
Greetings

Michael

Hi Michael,

Just for info, there’s no polling!
Connection to Tibber Pulse is a websocket for data exchange. So Pulse is pushing values towards the thing, no pulling.

To deactivate this simply don’t attach items to the Pulse channels
Tibber binding has 3 channel groups:

  • price - no Pulse connection
  • live & statistics - data from Pulse

If you link items only to price group no Pulse connection will be established!
