Async I/O modbus API for Remeha appliances

aio-remeha-modbus is an async python API for Remeha appliances.

Installation

Add this library to your project from PyPI using

$ uv add aio-remeha-modbus>=1.0.0beta5

or build it locally by checking out the source of this project and

$ uv build
...
$ uv pip install dist/*.whl

Exposed API

The API is documented at readthedocs. A short textual description of the most important classes and their hierarchy is shown below.

cli tool

This library also includes a cli tool to query your Remeha appliance. After installing this library, you can use remeha-query or if you prefer, you can run it from the cli yourself using python src/query.py.

Examples

Query the 2nd zone of an appliance that uses an RTU over TCP connection at 192.168.1.2 and port 8899:

$ remeha-query --transport serial socket://192.168.1.2:8899 --zone 2

Query all components

$ remeha-query --transport serial socket://192.168.1.2:8899 --all

Caching

To retrieve fetch data from modbus, call await RemehaApi.async_update() explicitly. After that, the values are retained until the next update call.

The discovery table in RemehaApi.discovery_table is read only at the first call to async_update(). To re-read the discovery table, restart the process running this API.

Error handling

All errors raised by this library are intended to be translated. To facilitate that, the base error class contains a translation_key field to look up the translation and a translation_placeholders field. This is a dict to be used when extrapolating the error message.

Configuration

aio-remeha-modbus uses modbus-connection to talk to your appliances, and is agnostic to the way a connection is obtained.

To create a new api instance, you need to obtain a ModbusUnit first. See the modbus-connection docs on how to do that.

RemehaApi

To create a new API instance, provide the ModbusUnit instance to the RemehaApi constructor.

Appliance

The connected Remeha appliance can be retrieved using RemehaApi.appliance.

ClimateZone

Zones, as they are configured in the Remeha appliance are exposed as ClimateZone instances and can be retrieved using RemehaApi.zones.

Zone schedules

When a ClimateZone is read from the appliance and its mode is ClimateZoneMode.SCHEDULING, the schedules for each Weekday are available through ClimateZone.current_schedule as instances of api.schedule.ZoneSchedule.
