Warning - This plugin generated a warning from the characteristic

[gavc1]

I am unable to get my devices to show in the home app, and with debug mode I see these errors in Homebridge

[gadget-monk]

It seems like the temp sensor values are incorrect. Do you still have this issue?

[gavc1]

Hey, that’s correct, I still have this issue. It reports in Celsius, it’s is displayed right with all other pool controller plugins.

[dkroesche]

Hi - I am having a similar problem when I try to adjust my heater temperature. I can turn pumps/lights off and on. The air and water temperature show correctly. But when I try to change the heater setting, I get an error like this:

This had worked in the past.

Thanks for your help! David

[gadget-monk]

I am able to reproduce this as well, working on a fix

[dkroesche]

Hi - just checking if you were able to fix this. Thanks!

[gadget-monk]

The API had changed, I am testing out edits to the code and will publish and update before end of week

[dkroesche]

Hi - thanks for the fix. I still see the warnings in the home bridge log, but the temperature changes seem to be working now.

Thanks, David

[gadget-monk]

thanks odd, what temp unit are you using (C or F)?

[dkroesche]

I'm using F.

[gadget-monk]

Can you try enabling debug logging (in plugin settings) and paste the log here?

Just pushed another update, does that fix this error?

[dkroesche]

I downloaded the latest and re-started home bridge, but it doesn't seem to fix it.

[dkroesche]

Note sure if it helps, but the "illegal value" increases with higher set temperatures. If I set the temp to 104, the "illegal value" reported is 4. As I lower the temperature, the "illegal value" decreases. With the temp set to 50, the "illegal value" is -12.

[gadget-monk]

tried another fix, can you update (new version is 3.2.5) and try to see if this fixes the warning?

[dkroesche]

That fixed it. Thanks!

[gavc1]

Weirdly I am still seeing this issue with 3.2.5 And my circuits never find their way in to the Home App

[gadget-monk]

Can you paste the entire log, especially any messages when homebridge is starting and loading plugins? Also, are current and target temp showing up accurately in dash panel?

[michaelmedellin]

@gadget-monk I believe #15 should help fix this issue. I’m no longer seeing the issue in code with these fixes.
