NILAN Ventilation Modbus Communication

.. seo:: :description: Instructions for setting up NILAN Modbus. :image: nilan.png :keywords: NILAN Ventilation

.. note::

This page is incomplete and could some work. If you want to contribute, please read the
:doc:`contributing guide </guides/contributing>`. This page is missing:

  - An image for the front page.
  - Images/screenshots/example configs of this device being used in action.

The sensor can be connected in various configurations - please see the manufacturer's website <https://en.nilan.dk/en-gb/frontpage/download>__ for more information.

.. warning::

This is only working for NILAN Light models.

The communication with this integration is done over a :ref:UART bus <uart>. You must therefore have a uart: entry in your configuration with both the TX and RX pins set to some pins on your board and the baud rate set to 9600.

.. code-block:: yaml

# Example configuration entry
uart:
  rx_pin: D1
  tx_pin: D2
  baud_rate: 9600

sensor:
  - platform: nilan  //testnilan
    filterdays:
      name: "Time for filter change"
    update_interval: 60s

Configuration variables:

  • update_interval (Optional, :ref:config-time): The interval to check the sensor. Defaults to 60s.
  • address (Optional, int): The address of the sensor if multiple sensors are attached to the same UART bus. You will need to set the address of each device manually. Defaults to 30.
