Show state of "Betriebsart Heizkreis" (select.solvis_heizung_hkr1_betriebsart)

[gnomwechsel]

Hi there,

the switch/dropdown of heating mode "Heizkreis Betriebsart" (select.solvis_heizung_hkr1_betriebsart) works as expected. I just want to read and show the actual state of "Betriebsart" as number/digit. Tried to read the state via Template, but that fails (state = unknown).

{{ states('select.solvis_heizung_hkr1_betriebsart') }}

When I used modbus integration it was solved with adress/following solution in the sensors.yaml:

- name: HKR1 Betriebsart
  unique_id: "solvis_hkr1mode"
  slave: 1
  input_type: holding
  address: 2818
  scan_interval: 30

Maybe it is possible to include this entity / is there an other way to show the state of "Betriebsart"?

Hey @gnomwechsel
At the moment the raw values of the modbus reading are not accessible via the entities. The read value is mapped to the correspondend select entry.
One direct solution for you - at least at the moment - could be to create a template sensor which maps the states back to the integer values...

However it would not be a big deal to add the raw value as an entity attribute in a future version.
You could add a feature request in the issue section... 🙂
