WPalaControl

WPalaControl is a device designed to control and monitor Fumis-based stoves using a D1 Mini.
It allows you to power on/off, adjust the set point, change fan speeds, and retrieve status, alarms, and temperature data from your stove.

It supports native HTTP requests which makes it fully compatible with all existing Palazzetti/Fumis home automation plugins/apps.

It also integrates with MQTT to monitor/control your stove in a much more efficient way.

Stove Compatibility

WPalaControl is compatible with stoves using the Fumis Controller, which is used by many manufacturers, including:

Palazzetti / Jotul / TurboFonte / Godin / Fonte Flamme / Invicta / Casatelli / Alpis / Faizen / HETA / ...

To determine if your stove is compatible with WPalaControl, look for the following Control Panel or Motherboard:

Connect

⚠️ Before connecting, please check that you are using the correct cable
For Hardware V1.x: please use a Crossed cable
For Hardware V2.x: please use a Straight cable
(Hardware version is written on the box and on the PCB)

WPalaControl rj11

✅If your stove has an accessible RJ12 connector, simply connect the cable.

🔍If not, you'll need an additional cable and a splitter.
➡️ More details can be found in the Splitter Cabling documentation

First Boot

During the first Boot, the WPalaControl creates its own Wi-Fi network (AP mode)

Firmware version 3.2.0 and higher:

  • Network SSID : WPalaControl
  • Password : password

Version 3.1.x and lower:

  • Network SSID : WirelessPalaControlXXXX
  • Password : PasswordPalaControl

You should be automatically redirected to the module page.
If not, go to 👉 http://wpalacontrol.local 👈

Configuration pages

Status

Provides useful informations about the module and the stove.
The stove SN appears then followed, 1 minute later, by refreshed stove information

PalaControl - Home Automation

  • Type: enable/disable MQTT communication
  • Upload Period: set the refresh interval of stove information (in seconds)
  • Hostname, Port, Username, Password: MQTT server details (username and password are - optional)
  • Base Topic: prefix for WPalaControl topic structure
  • MQTT Type: defines MQTT topics and data structure:
    • Generic: publish raw values under the base topic (e.g. "{baseTopic}/T1" = "20.00")
    • Generic JSON: publish values JSON to "category" topic under base topic (e.g. "{baseTopic}/TMPS" = "{"INFO":{"CMD":"GET TMPS","RSP":"OK......")
    • Generic Categorized: publish raw values to "category" topic under base topic (e.g. "{baseTopic}/TMPS/T1" = "20.00")
  • Home Assistant Discovery: Enable/disable Home Assistant auto-discovery

Firmware

Aallows you to flash a new firmware version directly from GitHub releases or using WPalaControl.*.bin or WirelessPalaControl.*.bin file:

Ensure the module has Internet access and/or DNS configured if IP address is static

Use it

HTTP

Natively, HTTP GET request can be sent directly to the module.

http://wpalacontrol.local/cgi-bin/sendmsg.lua?cmd={command}

MQTT

Send commands via MQTT to %BaseTopic%/cmd topic once MQTT is configured.
Execution result is:

  • published following the configured MQTT Type
  • published on %BaseTopic%/result in JSON format

Module connection status is published to %BaseTopic%/connected:

  • 0: not connected
  • 1: connected but no communication with the stove
  • 2: module and stove connected
