No device config options about maxcul HOT 5 OPEN

Hello, pairing is enabled by calling the enable_pairing service of HA. The input field you are seeing is - if I remember correctly - some kind of cube device id. I built this integration to keep my cube alive for a few more seasons but I have only finished basic functionality (not very user friendly). This is also the reason it is not registered in HACS or such.. 😉

Thanks again for answering here :-)
I had success in pairing to a thermostat using full qualified path (telnet://myCubeNetworkAddress:2323) as Device Path. :-)
Now I see the climate entity.
It looks however like there is no reliable update on the values. Neither HA->thermostate no vice versa.
For example I expect to get a valve position when I go into boost mode at the thermostat. but nothing happens.
Did I miss anything? How is the update of values triggered? Do I have to do it manually in some way?
In further testing I found this repeating error msg:
2023-09-23 19:49:46.959 ERROR (Thread-4) [maxcul._io] Error reading from serial device <>. Try reopening it.
My config has only LAN/Telnet. So I guess that telnet is seen as serial device. But no idea why there is a communication problem. Could also be a problem of the quite old Cube...
I still did not manage pairing over CUL/USB. No idea what Device Path should be used to make it work. Tested with /dev/ttyACM0 as it is preset for the integration path and several variations. But no success.

Did you managed to get connection over USB?
I experienced same problems with value updates.. im hoping to get more reliable informations running over USB...

Editing device config options is not implemented. Please see my answer above: #6 (comment) I do not know if it works with USB, but it should, you have to find out the device path and use it instead of the telnet://[ip-address]:[port]

Hello Paul, first of all great work. I was trying to get my CUL running for a few days and thanks to you it is now.

what I meant with my comment was that I can’t figure out a device path for USB. Telnet is working but seem not 100% reliable. So I wanted to try usb instead.

do you have any idea how the USB device path should look like? Simply using „/dev/ttyACM0“ is not doing the trick.

Also I’ve noticed two devices poping up in /dev one is the above and one is /dev/serial no luck with that either.

Thanks so much
