# HomeWizard Binding

The HomeWizard binding provides access to several HomeWizard devices by using the local API of those devices.

# Installation

There are two important points to note:

  1. For API v1, the local API of each device must be enabled.
  2. For API v2, a bearer token needs to be obtained from the device.

See https://api-documentation.homewizard.com/docs/getting-started (opens new window) for a more detailed description of the API and for instructions on how to enable/use the API versions.

# Fixed Address

The devices support mDNS discovery, but the binding does not support that yet. As a result, the devices should be reachable through a hostname or a fixed IP address. Since the devices themselves have no option to set a fixed IP address you will need a different solution, for instance having your router hand out an IP address based upon the MAC address of the devices.

# Supported Things

The binding offers Things, providing access to all the supported HomeWizard devices.

Thing Device Description
hwe-p1 P1 Meter Reads total and current energy usage and total gas usage (v1 and v2).
hwe-skt Energy Socket Reads total and current energy usage. Controls power switch, lock, and ring brightness (v1).
hwe-wtr Watermeter Reads total and current water usage (v1).
hwe-kwh kWh Meter Reads total and current energy usage (v1).
hwe-bat Plug-In Battery Reads total and current energy usage and the current charge (v2).
p1_wifi_meter Wi-Fi P1 Meter [Deprecated] Reads total and current energy usage and total gas usage.
energy_socket Wi-Fi Energy Socket [Deprecated] Reads total and current energy usage. Controls power switch, lock, and ring brightness.
watermeter Wi-Fi Watermeter [Deprecated] Reads total and current water usage.

# Discovery

Auto discovery is not available for this binding.

# Thing Configuration

All devices can be configured through the web interface.

Parameter Required Default Description
ipAddress * This specifies the IP address (or host name) where the meter can be found.
refreshDelay 5 This specifies the interval in seconds used by the binding to read updated values from the meter.
apiVersion * v1 The API version to be used.
bearerToken The bearer token to be used when using API v2.

Note that update rate of the P1 Meter itself depends on the frequency of the telegrams it receives from the Smart Meter. For DSMR5 meters this is generally once per second, for older versions the frequency is much lower.
