Dashboard Setup

A pre-configured dashboard is included with the integration to help you get started quickly.

Dashboard Overview

Complete dashboard view with all components

The dashboard includes:

• Status indicator buttons
• Thermostat cards for temperature control
• History graphs for monitoring
• Scheduler integration (optional)

Installing the Dashboard

Method 1: Import YAML

1. Go to Settings > Dashboards
2. Click + Add Dashboard
3. Choose "New dashboard from scratch"
4. Give it a name (e.g., "Heat Pump")
5. Open the dashboard and click the three dots menu
6. Select Edit Dashboard
7. Click the three dots again and select Raw configuration editor
8. Paste the contents of dashboards/dash.yaml
9. Click Save

Import dashboard using raw configuration editor

Method 2: Add Cards Manually

You can also add individual cards to an existing dashboard.

Dashboard Components

Status Buttons

Status indicator buttons

The top row shows quick status indicators:

Button	Entity	Description
Alarm	binary_sensor.heat_pump_alarm	Shows alarm status
Heating	binary_sensor.heat_pump_heating	Heating mode active
Cooling	binary_sensor.heat_pump_cooling	Cooling mode active
SCE	binary_sensor.heat_pump_sce	Smart Consumer Electronics
Standby	binary_sensor.heat_pump_standby	Standby mode

Thermostat Cards

Thermostat cards for temperature control

Two thermostat cards provide temperature control:

Water Temperature Thermostat

• Entity: climate.heat_pump_water_temperature
• Controls heating/cooling water setpoint
• Shows current water temperature

DHW (Boiler) Thermostat

• Entity: water_heater.heat_pump_dhw or climate.boiler_temperature
• Controls domestic hot water setpoint
• Shows current DHW temperature

History Graph

24-hour history graph showing all sensors

The history graph tracks:

• All temperature sensors (T1, T2, T3, T4, setpoints)
• Binary status sensors (heating, cooling, pump, DHW)
• Runtime statistics

Configuration:

type: history-graph
hours_to_show: 24
entities:
  - entity: sensor.heat_pump_water_temperature_t1
  - entity: sensor.heat_pump_dhw_temperature_t3
  - entity: sensor.heat_pump_outdoor_temperature_t4
  - entity: binary_sensor.heat_pump_heating
  - entity: binary_sensor.heat_pump_working
  # ... more entities

Scheduler Card (Optional)

Scheduler card for automation

The scheduler requires the scheduler-card custom component.

Install via HACS:

1. Open HACS
2. Search for "scheduler-card"
3. Install and restart

Customizing the Dashboard

Changing Time Range

Edit the history graph hours_to_show value:

type: history-graph
hours_to_show: 48  # Change from 24 to 48 hours

Adding More Sensors

Add entities to the history graph:

entities:
  - entity: sensor.heat_pump_water_temperature_t1
  - entity: sensor.your_additional_sensor  # Add new sensors

Changing Layout

Adjust grid columns for different screen sizes:

grid_options:
  columns: 12  # Full width
  rows: 4

Mobile View

Dashboard optimized for mobile view

The dashboard is responsive and works on mobile devices. For better mobile experience, consider:

• Using the sections layout
• Reducing the number of history graph entities
• Using compact card styles

Example Cards
