Description

This template allows you to control your Viessmann Heating & Cooling device via the [Vitogate 300 BN/MB Gateway] +[LON Bus communicationmodule] over Modbus TCP or RTU. The Viessmann Vitotronic is a control system for Viessmann heat pumps, pellet boilers, gas boilers, oil boilers, hybrid systems or ventilation units. There are three different ways how to connect Viessmann with Loxone:

- Vitogate Modbus TCP Gateway - Vitogate Modbus RTU Gateway with Loxone Modbus Extension - Vitogate Modbus RTU Gateway with a Loxone Modbus Air.

Depending on variation of your project you can choose between Miniserver, Miniserver Go or Miniserver Compact


The choice of paring Viessmann Heating & Cooling systems with Loxone offers the possibility of:

- integrating demand-based heating and cooling depending on e.g. presence or the protection of open windows - Interaction with the blinds for saving effects by passive cooling thanks to Loxone automatic shading - Active integration in interaction with e.g. PV- systems in a Loxone Energy Management - Using flexible electricity tariffs with the Spot Price Optimizer. - Use statistics ore individual notifications - Create your own individual schematics - Reduce cycles and operating hours of your Viessmann Heating & Cooling device - Create e.g. yearly operation goals like certain annual runtime forces for hybrid systems e.g. (Vitocal 60% amount of energy, Vitodens 40% amount of energy) to fulfill the requirements of your local government. - Grid management according to §14a ENWG in Germany - In addition to the electrical power, the current and total thermal energy can also be visualized via the Loxone Energy Flow Monitor. To the compact overview for e.g. contractors. - Influence on the hot water circulation pump by controlling via the presence detectors. - Increased security through leakage detection or activation of IP cameras in the plant room.

With our step by step manual for collecting the heating or cooling demand and forwarding it to the Viessmann Vitoconnect, we enable the interaction of the individual room control with the central heating/cooling system Viessmann Vitotronic. Please take a look on the Loxone Config sample file in the Library download area.

- If you would like to work in another language, you can also use the following link: vitogate-info (viessmann.com) - Before purchasing the Vitogate 300 gateway and LON communicationmodule for your Heating & Cooling operation system, please check the compatibility in the download area of Viessmann: "Printed matter" - "Supported control units and heat generators". You can compare the designations with on your Vitotronic type label. - If you need help how to deal with the integration of the Vitogate 300 gateway or need general information, please use the Viessmann download area in the links: Viessmann download area: "Printed matter" "Installation and servicing instructions" "Modbus instructions for use" "Application information for various heat generators" "Technical note" - The initial commissioning of the Vitogate 300 gateway and the selection of data points on the Vitotronic page are described in the following explanatory video:

!Important hint - Please note that the data points can vary completely from model to model. For example in the product line of heatpumps, the Vitocal [A] (Monoblock) , Vitocal [S] (Splitdevice) and Vitocal [G] (Geothermal) heat pump models each have their own Modbus data point list. To obtain the correct data point list, please contact your Viessmann partner! To transfer the correct data point for your Viessmann device, it is helpful to take the technology ID in this UseCase Template and find it in the correct Modbus data point list for your Viessmann device.


UseCase: Integration of a Vitotronic WO1C: Residential building with heating, cooling, heat buffer, warm water storage and heating circuits.

Questions and answers

  1. Is this type: VIESSMANN Vitocal 200-S Typ: AWB-M-E-AC-AF 201.E08 supported?

    Open

    Does "Supported Devices: Vitocal" mean, every Vitocal device is supported? Especially this type: VIESSMANN Vitocal 200-S Typ: AWB-M-E-AC-AF 201.E08

    Thanks!

    1. Hello Andreas,

      this template is support for the Vitogate 300 module of VIESMANN this works on all VIESMANN systems that are compatible with this device.

      When looking only it should be possible to connect your Vitocal 200-s to the Vitogate 300 to make the control over loxone.

  2. Does you plan to add the Viessmann IoT-API to access VT's

    Open

    Hi, Do you plan to implement the Viessmann Cloud IoT API? https://documentation.viessmann.com/static/iot/data-points

    We have 7 Buildings with heat pumps connected by Vitoconnect routers to the Viessmann Cloud. We would like to access warm water and heating temperatures and pump states.

    Thanks best regards thomas

    1. Hello Thomas,

      Currently, we have no plans to implement the Cloud API. Since the Cloud API requires an internet connection to control and monitor devices within the same building as the Loxone system, it is more practical to use a local communication protocol. This ensures the highest level of security for the installation and optimal protection of its data.

    1. Hello Thomas, This template is based on Modbus TCP/RTU as this are stable local protocols. This is our preferred way of communication between our systems. Communication over Cloud requires the costumer to have an internet connection to control a device. Therefore this is a connection where there are a lot of variables what can cause problems.

      So at the moment we are not looking at implementing this cloud API integration.

  4. Viessmann GridBOX

    Open

    Hallo, wir haben eine Viessmann Wärmepumpe (Vitoconnect), PV + Batteriespeicher (Vitocharge VX 3) . Das wollten wir eigentlich über die Viessmann GridBox mit Anzeigen lassen. Besteht hier eine Möglichkeit?

    1. Hello Steffan,

      This template is for the Vitogate 300 module so all systems that can be controlled over this gateway can be implemented in the loxone system.

      The Vitoconnect is a module that links to the viesmann app and dues not have support for the modbus communication of this template.

      For the Vitocharge I am not able to find if this supports the modbus communication. I only see that it as EEBUS but this is an energy connection, this is not supported via the EEBUS plugin in loxone.

      It is best to contact the supplier of your Viesmann systems so they can advice you what modules you would need to make the control over the loxone system.

  5. LON mit BabelBusterX2 Univeral Gateway ausulesen

    Hallo,

    ich möchte meinen Vitoladens 300-C mit Vitotronic 200 KW6B mit einem BabelBusterX2 LON Univeral Gateway an Loxone anbinden. benötige hierzu jedoch etwas Unterstüzung.

    Viele Grüße Felix Wahl
