Question
ChristianSogaard 62
I want to stop Nilan when my extractor hood is Running, to ensure right airflow in the house - and a lot more great usecases.
For my Nilan Ventilation I have builded a small converter based on ESP8266 to convert the Modbus to HTTP or MQTT
Nilan Modbus firmware for D1 Mini (ESP8266) together with a TTL to RS485 Converter

Its two way communication with the Nilan
Getting values by HTTP:
You can get some json values from the Nilan by calling to it via HTTP. Just use your browser and type:
DEVICE - corresponds to the IP adress you you device (esp8266)
http://[device]/help - This should give you som registers
http://[device]/read/output - This would for example give you some status of the output
http://[device]/set/[group]/[adress]/[value]- This would make you able to send commands through HTTP
Getting values by MQTT:
Any MQTT-Tool :
ventilation/temp/#- This will give the temperatures from all the sensors.
ventilation/moist/#- This will give the humidity from the systems humidity sensor.
ventilation/# - This gives the output of the system - fan speed etc. Remember the payloads are given in values not text.
It based on a whole teams work in denmark, and everything its collected here.

There are
Anyone else having Nilan or Genvex or already started on an Integration like this?
the way @jgab is working with QA Childs is just really amazing - I'm having a steep learning curve, and dont master the technique yet
So looking for allies
If I have the Base QA and one working Sensor, I can manage to ADD the rest myself.
