Cannot make "select" entity work as expected

[jmcollin78]

Hello, I'm building a device file for AFYEEV 32A EV charger.
My device have one of this ability:

{"abilityId":14,"accessMode":"rw","code":"work_mode","description":"","extensions":{"iconName":"icon-dp_mode","trigger":"direct"},"name":"工作模式","typeSpec":{"type":"enum","range":["charge_now","charge_pct","charge_energy","charge_schedule","charge_delay"]}},

I try to exploit it as a select entity to be able to change the work_mode.

...
secondary_entities:
  - entity: select
    name: Working mode
    category: config
    icon: "mdi:list-box-outline"
    dps:
      - id: 14
        type: string
        name: option
        mapping:
          - dps_val: charge_now
            value: Charge now
          - dps_val: charge_pct
            value: Charge PCT
          - dps_val: charge_energy
            value: Charge energy
          - dps_val: charge_schedule
            value: Charge schedule
          - dps_val: charge_delay
            value: Charge delay
...

But the entity is not created.

In the log I see some errors:

Note: with sensor instead of select, I see the value but I cannot change it.

Ok I suppress totally the device and recreate it and now its works.

Very nice integration !

[nicolas-sora]

Somehow I found a way to fix it :) My version has a different product id :) Also found your post on another forum which included lots of instructions. Thank you! A bientot.
Je vais demander une intégration aussi avec mon product id :)

You have a complete tuto here: https://forum.hacf.fr/t/chargeur-ev-afyeev-32a-22kw-integration-dans-home-assistant-et-dans-solar-optimizer/44730 (in French). You absoluterly need tuya-local to make it works.

Thank you! I did find it (and happen to speak french haha) I also made a request to add the quirk (which was closed for some reason) because my product id is different from yours and the timer entity does not seem to apply.
I thought we had the same product but maybe not?

This is what is bought: 32A 7kW 1 phase - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006903478435.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.5.16bd1802IkHWh0

Maybe you have the 'portable' version?

Btw 1 question. When I power off the unit completely and power it back on some time later, the device and entities are all stuck on 'unavailable' until I reload the Tuya-Local integration... Not sure if it's an issue with my setup or if this is expected? I need to find a way to automate the integration reload as I saw that the station draws about 6-8W idle and I'd rather power it down as it's going to be in use just a few hours a day if that

Hello, this is not expected. When you plg in your device, all entities should come back to life automatically after one minute no more.
