@toodles the details I have already set up for the standard app don't work on this page, I'll have to see what else I need to do.  The guy who installed mine said I would be able to see more information on the web page, I'll ask him if he has any more info. It sounded like he was driving around the country fitting these so must have lots of systems on his app that he'll never look at again. He wasn't local to me at all.

@johnnyb I think that Homely policy is still that of installer access only; if you go to their sight (and I didn’t say this) you may find that you can do a quick on-line training course and register as an installer. But I didn’t tell you that!😉. Regards, Toodles.

You don’t even need to do a training course.

Well thats some reading you guys have put in there!

It looks like I have to get this dreaded balance right before I look at Homely and Solar/Battery . I have a quote in place but not gone ahead until this balancing has been advised . I am hoping the proposed and preferred bid for my solar installation company will help with Homely as well.

@johnnyb from what remember, with a bit of advice from toodles….this was for a homely already installed and up and running.

I installed the homely installer app. Created an account. Add hub option and scanned QR code. After which, cancelled setup. My install then appeared along with the demo.

the app is useful as provides a snapshot of flow and return temps. Cylinder temp etc.

Use same credentials to access homely dashboard (will come up on google search).

Access really needs to come as standard. It has been invaluable for me to identify some issues and in fairness someone from homely called me today in response to an email, to talk me through how to try and assist with it not quite getting to target temp etc.

Thanks @toodles @grahaml @benson That was fairly easy, apart from I didn't digest Benson's sentence about cancelling the setup and tried to fully set up the hub. For some reason it wouldn't show the 'Next' button when it got to pairing the Node. After watching lots of the videos and still not getting anywhere I deleted the Demo Hub and it didn't ask me to finish installing my hub any more.

I now have access to the dashboard, thanks all.
