Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

What is this adapter?

This adapter integrates your Fronius Wattpilot EV charger with ioBroker, allowing you to monitor and control your charging station. The Wattpilot is an intelligent electric vehicle charging solution that can be integrated into your smart home system.

🌟 Key Features:

  • Real-time monitoring of charging status
  • Remote control of charging parameters
  • Cloud and local connection support

Installation and Setup

Prerequisites

Before installing the adapter, you need to set up your Wattpilot:

  1. Complete Wattpilot Setup: Finish the initial setup using the official Fronius Wattpilot app and remember your password
  2. Connect to WiFi: In the app, go to the "Internet" tab and connect your Wattpilot to your WiFi network
  3. Find IP Address: You'll need your Wattpilot's IP address using one of these methods:
  • Router Method: Check your router's web interface for connected devices
  • App Method: In the Wattpilot app, tap on the WiFi name after connection. You'll see network details including the IP address

💡 Important: It's highly recommended to assign a static IP address to your Wattpilot in your router settings to prevent connection issues.

Adapter Installation

  1. Install the adapter from the ioBroker "Adapters" page
  2. Create a new instance of the fronius-wattpilot adapter
  3. In the instance configuration:
  • Enter your Wattpilot's IP address
  • Enter your Wattpilot password
  • Configure other settings as needed
  1. Save the configuration

If everything is configured correctly, the adapter will connect and start creating data points.

How to Use the Adapter

Reading Data

The adapter automatically creates data points for all Wattpilot values. You can use these like any other data points in ioBroker for:

  • Visualization in VIS or other frontends
  • Logic in scripts and Blockly
  • Automation rules

Data Modes:

  • Key Points Only (default): Shows only the most important values
  • All Values: Uncheck the "Key points only" option to see all available API data

📖 Full API documentation: Wattpilot API Documentation (Thanks to joscha82)

Controlling Your Wattpilot

Direct State Control (NEW!)

You can now directly control important Wattpilot functions by writing to the states.

Advanced Control via set_state

For more advanced control, use the set_state data point with this format:

stateName;value

Available states:

  • amp: 6-16 (charging current in Amperes)
  • cae: true or false (⚠️ disables cloud functionality - may require restart)

Examples:

amp;10          // Set charging current to 10A

Examples and Use Cases

Solar Integration Example

Check out our Blockly example that shows how to:

  • Monitor your solar power production
  • Automatically adjust Wattpilot charging current based on excess solar power

How to use the example:

  1. Copy the content from the example file
  2. In ioBroker Blockly, click the "Import blocks" icon (upper right corner)
  3. Paste the content and adapt it to your setup

Common Automations

  • Time-based charging: Start charging during off-peak hours
  • Solar surplus charging: Charge only when excess solar power is available
  • Presence detection: Start/stop charging based on car presence
  • Load balancing: Adjust charging current based on household power consumption

Technical Details

The adapter connects to the Wattpilot's WebSocket interface and converts incoming data into ioBroker data points. It supports both local WiFi connections and cloud-based connections.

Connection Types:

  • Local WiFi (recommended): Direct connection to your Wattpilot
  • Cloud: Connection via Fronius cloud services

Troubleshooting

Common Issues:

  • Connection failed: Check IP address and password
  • Frequent disconnections: Assign a static IP to your Wattpilot
  • Missing data points: Try enabling "All Values" mode
  • Cloud connection issues: Verify the cae setting

⚠️ Disclaimer: This adapter uses unofficial APIs. Use at your own risk and be careful when modifying settings that could affect your device's operation.
