A dumb wall controller was replaced with a custom ESPHome controller to gain full Home Assistant control, per‑room fan control, and automations for quieter nights and smarter operation. The system keeps the original alternating 70‑second pendulum cycle used by decentralized heat‑recovery fans.
I got the request of a visitor to publish the modbus adresses I use to read from my heatpump. I asked iDM if iam allowed to publish the adresses and they agreed. So here they are: # Dec. Hex.

I have long wanted to have tablets on the wall of the ground floor and upper floor where I can control Home Assistant. In the last Black Friday Sale I bought two relatively cheap 10 inch Fire Tablets from Amazon for 99€ each. The only difficulty was to supply the tablets with electricity. But then I came up with a very practical solution. Qi Charging Pad I bought a Qi Micro USB Ladepad at Amazon (Afiliate Link): ...
I wanted the garbage collection dates on my HA dashboard. Unfortunately, the city of Landshut doesn’t offer an API to access them directly. So i wrote a custom integration.
I switched my home automation system from OpenHAB to Home-Assistant and am very happy with the decision so far. Of course, I also had to change the integration of my heat pump. Therefore I developed my own module for Home-Assistant. Result The result looks like this: Lovelace Lovelace iDM heatpump I also visualized the values in Grafana which looks like this: Heatpump in Home-Assistant Lovelace Grafana Grafana visualization of heatpump data ...
For some time now I have been using OpenHAB at home for the central control of my house. In OpenHAB, for example, I manage shading, control some lamps, measure and visualize the energy consumption of certain consumers such as refrigerators or washing machines. The biggest consumer in the house I have not connected yet, my heating. This is a Terra ML Complete HGL heat pump from iDM. A little research on theire website has shown that the key figures of the machine can be read out via TCP (i. e. Ethernet) via the MODBUS protocol. ...
Initial build of the Anet A8 upgrade I started to upgrade my Anet A8 to proper aluminium extrusions. Iam using the fantastic project called AM8. I started with my intial build: Finalizing the mechanical part This weekend in finished the mechanical part of the upgrade of my Anet A8 to to the aluminium AM8. Next step is finishing the electrical installation and setting up the firmware. ...
The build begins & tapping aluminium extrusions I ordered the wrong size self-tapping screws (M5 instead of M6), so i had to tap the aluminium extrusions manually. I changed my BOM so nobody else has the problem. Installing frame & motors + first problem Today I finally installed the frames and mounted the motors. Also wanted to mount the A&B idlers but unfortuneately the steel dowels have an diameter of 5mm and the inner diameter of the flanged bearings have an inner diameter of 4,96mm. ...
Self made Power Supply, based on a DPS5015 module from AliExpress.
When i got 2015 my new espresso machine I had quite some problems with the fluctuating temperature of the boiler. So I decided to replace the bimetal thermostat with a PID controller. I installed the controller in an external plastic box, so I didnt had to cut any holes in the machine (just in case I want to sell the machine). Second modification was adding a cheap LED lightsource. Pictures Dismanteled 1 ...
