* Backup your data before update (different config structure!). If you make a downgrade of this integration (<2023.9) restore your data backup (The entries for Luxtronik in ./storage/core.config_entries + core.device_registry + core.entity_registry should be enough.)! If not you get double entities!

It's not always clear from the name alone what an entity exactly means and how it effects your heatpump. The main source of information is ofcourse the [Luxtronik Operating Manual](https://mw.ait-group.net/files/docs/EN/A0220/83055400.pdf).

Not all heatpumps have build in electrical energy metering and instead only show the energy produced in heat, not the energy consumed in electricity. Adding a (strong) energy meter is a nice addition to measure the SCOP of your device. Shelly energy meters are recommended since they offer offer a [16A power plug](https://www.shelly.com/en-nl/products/product-overview/1xplug) and a [variety of in-line or clamp energy meters](https://www.shelly.com/en-nl/products/energy-metering-energy-efficiency) with various protection mechanisms.

## 4 Troubleshooting
174
+
175
+
In case of issues, perform the following steps first.
176
+
1. *Restart the heatpump*. Perform a full powercycle. This solves most connectivity issues.
177
+
2. *Download the latest (beta) version if this integration*.
178
+
1. Go to `HACS` > `Luxtronik`.
179
+
2. From the 3-dot menu, select `Redownload`.
180
+
3. Expend `Need a different version` and select the latest pre-release.
181
+
4. Select `Download`
182
+
5. Restart Home Assistant.
183
+
3. *Check the system logs*. If the integration isn't working, check the system logs first.
184
+
185
+
### Asking for help
186
+
If you can't figure it out on your own, consult the community. Do a thorough search first before asking for help.
187
+
1. *Use the HA Community Forum*. For basic questions regarding the functionality of your heatpump or the integration, the [HA community forum](https://community.home-assistant.io/t/writing-a-component-for-luxtronik-heatpumps/35796) is the best place to start.
188
+
2. *Use the Discussions*. For more in-depth questions, check the [GitHub Discussions](https://github.com/BenPru/luxtronik/discussions).
