Setup of platform gree is taking longer than 60 seconds. Startup will proceed without waiting any longer - then nothing happened anymore

[T123S]

I installed as described, but i cant see my Klarstein A/C.

Home Assistant 2023.6.3 Supervisor 2023.06.4 Operating System 10.3 Device is in the same environment as HA.

But then, nothing happened and no further gree entries occurs. What can it be? Is the device not supported? In this thread, it seems that it can be controlled: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/klarstein-air-conditioning-integration-please/305838/13

Thanks in advance, Theo

I had the same issue, but I managed to resolve it by trying a method. I reset the Wi-Fi settings of my air conditioner using the remote control, and then reconfigured the network settings. Now, everything has been running smoothly for a week.

Can u give some details about reconf process? I had the same issue or u mean this Configuring HVAC WiFi?

@T123S Check your mac field at climate.yaml...I have entered mac with no "-" and ":" and HA read conf successfully!

I'm also stuck with the same error. I got the wifi module for my Vaillant conditioner which uses Gree+ / Ewpe Smart app to control. Setting up the app was flawless and works ok. I see my device IP in my router. But can't pass this error. Gree Climate integration also doesn't find any device. Any hope for me?

climate:

• platform: gree name: Vaillant host: 192.168.1.27 port: 7000 mac: 502cn65608b3 target_temp_step: 1

-Tried every combination to write the mac address.

This fixed it for me. I just toggled the wifi off/on on the remote.
