AUX Contact Settings / State in Home Assistant

[kkranich97]

I connected a relay to my inverter via the AUX contact, which I use to switch on heating elements for water tanks as soon as enough PV power is available and the battery is already full. I was wondering if it is possible to display the current status of the AUX contact in Home Assistant. This would allow you to see in Home Assistant whether the AUX contact is closed. The settings of the AUX contact (see screenshot) would also be interesting.

Is this a configuration issue and I just haven't found it? Or can't this be queried via the API?

Heya @kkranich97

The OpenAPI provided by alpha doesn't provide any way to view/interface the aux contacts, but honestly it should.

i would be more than happy to integrate it within HA if they were to add it, but that might require you to hassle their support and see if they would add it on their end.
