IVT, Bosch heat pump easy integration, Home Assistant

-

In search of the optimal solution on how to interface our IVT Heat pump, first try here, I stumbled over a nice integration for Home Assistant(HA). A first quick setup is shown at the right.


The first obstacle was that it was HA which I knew about but never used.  So it was "back too school" and doing a blog post about a HA Core install.


Intro
You need some variant of a HA server installed. You could use the HA core install mentioned above but if you are dedicating a Raspberry Pi(or other hardware) to just run HA I really recommend HA OS installed via the Raspberry Pi installer.

You also must have HACS installed in HA.

Installing
There are nice install instructions and the only comment I have is regarding, using XMPP, the credentials.

In my case the IP module in the heat pump had a label with information

Loginname:    08nnnnnnn            => Serial number of device

Passwort:     nH3N-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx  => Access token(Including the "-")


and for the IVT Anywhere app 

Personal password:    nnnnnnnn     => Password


After the installation is done the "Temperature circle" shown above will appear in "Overview".

Location: Helsingborg, Sweden

      There is no additional code needed, just follow the instructions.

      The view is installed together with the integration. But here is generic_thermostat climate integration available in HA, very similar, just Google.

    Hi, is there some instructions on how the Greenline HE C6-C11 E6-E11 can be controlled using CAN bus using a microcontroller/computer, without the need for the IVT Anywhere Gateway?

      Hi ! Not familiar with that model, but isn't the HP shipped with the mentioned gateway ?

Clone the Raspberry boot disk

Updated 2024-02-20 ! A very nice way to fix a backup is to make a copy, bootable, of the actual SD card You are using on the Raspberry Pi(RPi). This will be done even when the RPi is up and running ! This application can also be used to make a bootable SSD or USB drive !! You clone from the command line so You don't need the standard GUI, Pixel, and the " SD card copier "  function. It is also possible to set up a a scheduled job, cronjob explained later, which for example makes a clone every night at 1 o'clock.

Installing Ubuntu 24.04 or 24.10/25.04 on an old MacBook Air(2011)

Updated 2025-05-20 ! I have done several posts Blogging about how to keep an old MacBook Air(MBA), mid 2011(A1369), with SSD disk "alive". I have used the fantastic software package OpenCore Legacy patcher to upgrade the Mac to the latest Mac OS.  A while ago i tested Mac OS  Sequoia (15.3), on the mentioned Mac, but I had to admit that it was to much for the 14 year old companion. I really like the Mac and everything works, after a battery change , so it ended up with installing  Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS  or if you want the latest scroll down and get Ubuntu 24.10/25.04.
