I am trying to update zmartmodbus addon binding to OH4. See forum
for my heating system. (quite essential for me and others)
(It was never finished by the author Peter Kristensen)
I now managed to get it somehow working for OH4, and uploaded a new .jar, but:
It cant use thing discovery
(the binding doesnt show up in UI / things / + /
… as it did in OH3
symptoms:
the binding doesn’t show in UI / Addons / Bindings
The bundle shows as active in console
no errors in [DEBUG] log
I can add things, bridges manually with .things files
(and the bridge communication works fine, and items channel gets updated/changed)
I can also add the thermostat-things (jablotron_tp150) manually through files.
But some parameters (their individual “numbers”) are ‘Properties’ and cant be set by configuration parameters. Hence only through discovery
Any obvious place to look, to make the binding do discovery (as it did in OH3)?
(I am very beginner in java and maven, but the binding is essential to me)
(I did also make a .jar for OH3.4.5-java17, which works. So it is not java11vs17-related)
It is the problem noted above. You might be able to manually get to the scan page by adding the binding name to the address line (ie /zmartmodbus). It worked for a while during the transition with zwave.
