Hello everybody!
This is my first post on the forum.
Since a few weeks ago I started using home assistant and bringing improvements to my house.
I ordered a lot of things from China and they started showing up. I added mosquitto broker and zigbee2mqtt to my HA installation, and, with the cc2531 stick and some Ikea and xiaomi zigbee devices, I added lights controls, temperature, humidity and pressure sensors around the house, and some smart switches for appliances. All is working great here, including 2 xiaomi dafang cameras with modded firmwares, and mqtt control.However, a few days ago I received 3 nodemcu and 2 IR blasters, that I want to use to control my 2 Daikin heatpumps through the IR blasters and Buderus boiler through opentherm. I intend to use these tutorials as starting points, but I am in a pickle.
AC: https://www.sysrun.io/2017/02/22/use-a-esp8266-to-control-your-ac-via-mqtt/
Boiler: http://ihormelnyk.com/mqtt_thermostatThe problem I am having now, is: I followed the tutorial for the Daikin heatpump, installed all the libraries, flashed the nodemcu, it connects to wifi, it replies to ping. I can see the device in MQTT Explorer:
However, nothing is showing up in HA. I thought something will show up in integrations, as the xiaomi cameras did.
Should it pop up by itself, or do I have to start doing something else? Where should I start from?
(Regarding the Boiler board, I still have to get the adapter from work. ATM it is connecting to wifi, but ping reply has a high drop rate, like 66%)
Thanks in advance.
