Detect change of a fix value #90

Open steinbeck opened 4 months ago

steinbeck commented 4 months ago

I am trying to do an automation based on the change of a fix value (Fixwert in my German installation) in my UVR16x2. Our heating engineer has implemented switching our heating on or off via the change of a fix value (see photo).

When I change the fix value, I see that "Node: 1—Output 2" changes its value. This is a good hint that this is the correct setting, but can I be more certain?

Cheers,

Chris

As far as I know, no fixed values can be accessed via the json api, which is used by this integration. However, if your “Node: 1-Output 2” behaves exactly like your fixed value, you are free to use it for your automation. However, if you still want to read out this value safely, you can do this with the help of my CoE integration, as fixed values can be accessed via CAN.
