After update missing the readout from power meter

[molcam]

Hi!

I have recently updated to latest version (2024.9.5) and I have now lost the sensors for the power meters and the currents on each phase (laster på varje fas). Additionally, the state of the senor when toggling from set mode = "On" to "Off" or vice versa has become extremely slow and states "Not available for charging" instead of previous "on" or "off". It takes 5-10 seconds before the state is updated. Any work around this?

@molcam Hi, are there any logs?
There could be something interfering with the connection.

Hi!
The following is stated for the Phase 1 to 3 - GARO meter Phase 1 current - "This entity is no longer being provided by the garo_wallbox integration. If the entity is no longer in use, delete it in settings."

I also miss Power meter in "W" very much.
I downgraded to 1.0.9 to get it back.

@markuska00 what firmware are you running on the garo?

[molcam]

Mjukvaruversion 1.3.7 (according to local site it is the latest). For some reason the charger integration has become very slow (can take up to a minute before the updated integration shows its status. Also the Power meter dose not work...).
I can see the Power meter on the local website, so the info is there - just not transfered to the HA integration -

@markuska00 what firmware are you running on the garo?

I'm running firmware 1.3.7

[sockless-coding]

1.3.7 is the latest...
1.0.9 is old and doesn't have support for the power meter.
The 2024.x.x should provide a device for it, please enable debug logging for the integration.

[markuska00]

I first attach trend on the Power meter with the old version 1.0.9
And then with the new 2024.9.5
The resolution on the new version is too bad.
Would like the same resolution as on version 1.0.9

[markuska00]

Most of the time the power meter items show 0 kW.

[sockless-coding]

Are you running a fork of 1.0.9? Since that version does not have any Meter support.
Still need those debug logs, and info about what meter you have.

[markuska00]

The signals that I campare.
1.0.9 : sensor.XXXX_meter_power

2024.9.5: sensor.energy_meter_XXXX_power_consumption

I use the Power meter in my automations. To get it working I'm back on 1.0.9 and unfortunately can't give you for debug 2024.9.5 right now.

[markuska00]

Could my problem be that in 1.0.9 you calculate the power from ampere? In the new version you use power from the power meter? Maybe my powermeter do not support that

[molcam]

Hi!

I have at least found my issue and that is that the name of the Powermeter has changed in the new integration - Now it is called "Energy meter (110020U) Power consumption phase L1" or L2 or L3 and is a new device in the updated integration.
However, I now have the same issue as Markuska00. The energy readings are 0.0 kw for all three phases. The integration is still super slow though...

[sockless-coding]

Version 1.0.9 only had the Charging Power sensor, and that is still available.
Regarding "slow" the update interval can be changed:

[sockless-coding]

The official v1.0.9 only registered the following sensors:

    async_add_entities([
        GaroMainSensor(device),
        GaroSensor(device, 'Status', 'status'),
        GaroSensor(device, "Charging Current", 'current_charging_current', 'A'),
        GaroSensor(device, "Charging Power", 'current_charging_power', 'W'),
        GaroSensor(device, "Phases", 'nr_of_phases'),
        GaroSensor(device, "Current Limit", 'current_limit', 'A'),
        GaroSensor(device, "Pilot Level", 'pilot_level', 'A'),
        GaroSensor(device, "Session Energy", 'acc_session_energy', "Wh"),
        GaroSensor(device, "Total Energy", 'latest_reading', "Wh"),
        GaroSensor(device, "Total Energy (kWh)", 'latest_reading_k', "kWh"),
        GaroSensor(device, "Temperature", 'current_temperature', TEMP_CELSIUS),
        ])
