ventilationLevelTarget/set #53

Closed Harri-V closed 1 year ago

As far as I see, the ventilation level can not be set via mqtt. Can it be implemented?

I run the air conditioning by changing the target temperature and ventilation levels. At the moment I am using manual boost to raise the ventilation level for cooling, but it can only be set to last for 120 minutes.

It is unfortunately not possible to change the "normal mode" ventilation level via Modbus, only the target temperature.

You can re-purpose e.g. the "Pitkään poissa" mode and set a ventilation level for that one. You can set "target temperature drop" to 0 degrees, but in my experience the minimum value is actually 2 degrees, so to maintain temperature while in "pitkään poissa" mode you have to simultaneously raise the main temperature target by two degrees.

I should probably document this since it's a big gotcha. I had to e-mail Enervent about it and they confirmed that it's not possible.
