I have a vaillant boiler with VRC 470f controller and FHEM sourced ebus interface which is working with openhab. I noticed that vaillant have released the VR 50, an ebus based TRV which requires their VRC700 controller to work correctly.
Is it possible that the VR 50 will still publish/subscribe through my existing controller, albeit with no native support? This would allow my FHEM interface to control the devices through ebus, which is all I really want.
Supposing it would appear on the bus, I’m assuming it would need a configuration defining - something I have no knowledge of, but would be willing to learn.
Interested in thoughts/ideas. I am willing to purchase one to test, but will need some guidance.
I went for a pre-soldered standalone device, which connects to ebus on boiler and FTDI on server. They ask for donations beyond the parts price to cover soldering work, etc. Be kind
I dealt with john30 (ebusd maintainer) and it all went smoothly - john speaks English, which cleared up any confusion/questions.
