Start Dishwasher G7110 remotely #22

Open GO74 opened 10 months ago

What do you want to achieve? Is your feature request related to a problem?

Since it's now 2023/24 and people are using flexible tarifs for electricity as well as solar to power their homes it should be possible to remotely/programatically start their energy hungry appliances. This seems to be not possible with Miele for unknown reasons using this binding. I would like to remotely set a program, define a start-time and start the program using this binding as my homeautomation system is aware of the produced electricity/the current price of electricity.

It is possible to remotely start appliances, but they need to be programmed before:

  1. Enable remote control on the appliance and set the delayed start time to an arbitrary value (choose a high one, like 24 hours)
  2. Start the countdown. At this point the remote_control_can_be_started channel switches to ON.
  3. Switching the program_start channel to ON starts the device, skipping any remaining delayed start time. This can be easily done from an automation routine.

Currently it is not possible to set a program remotely or change the start time.

"It is possible to remotely start appliances" yes, it's possible indeed - when using the Miele-App. It's not possible to do so using the binding - which is hindering me to use the appliance as intended.

Did you try out these steps?
