Possibility to set the room temperature programmatically #49

Open skyup-str opened 4 years ago

I'd like to read the current room temperature from an external sensor (not from the MAX!Wall-Thermostat) and feed it to the heating thermostat. Does the max-cube-protocol provide a way to do that?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Unfortunately I can't help you with that because I do not use MAX! hardware anymore, sorry 🤷

There is no command (that we have found) provided for the purpose. I had thought you could do it by comparing the temperature you read to the one you want, then putting the valve into manual mode and giving it a set point that would force it open or closed as required. Sending boost commands might be even better if they let you set the valve position directly.
