Maximun heat temperature allowed is 25°

[peibol81]

With 16.16 the maximum temperature allowed by the plugin in heat mode is 25°. In melcloud web and app is possible configure the unit to 26°, 27°...

[grzegorz914]

Which device?

[grzegorz914]

In my case I can set to 31°C for AC Device

[peibol81]

Mitsubishi air conditioning system (by grids). I don't know if is the information you need.

[grzegorz914]

The home app allow to set between 10 and 31 for AC. Get the screenshot where you can’t set more as 25.

[peibol81]

In the homekit screen, when I select a temperature above 25, the temperature automatically changes to 25. automatically. For example, if I choose 27, the selection wheel goes down to 25 automatically. I can't seend a screenshot for this issue.

[peibol81]

Today I updated nodejs to 20.11.1, maybe can be in relation?

[grzegorz914]

I don’t know but is definitely something wrong in your local environment, I have checked this and all tem can be set.

[peibol81]

Don't worry. In little ocasions I need more if 25°. Thank you for your time trying to help.

[peibol81]

Some news. In 0.16.2 version, all works well. In the next version, 0.16.13 is imposible set heat tempeeature above 25°. Siri says 'Value above the maximum allowed'

[grzegorz914]

I don’t have this behavior on my side, if so please post debug log during set tem above 25C

[peibol81]

Don't worry. I'm a blind person and this kind of things (paste debug info, etc...) is difficult because the app is not much accesible. I will wait to future versions and if the problem continues I will talk to a friend to help me to paste the debug info. Maybe is not a plugin problem. Don't worry, is not a fatal error. Thank you again.

I also get an error This plugin generated a warning from the characteristic 'Heating Threshold Temperature': characteristic was supplied illegal value: number 27 exceeded maximum of 25. See https://homebridge.io/w/JtMGR for more info.

[daniburton1]

Same error

[peibol81]

If any of you can put the plugin log here, it may be easier to find the problem. For me it is complicated because the process of generating and copying the log here is not accessible. I use Voiceover and although I've tried, I haven't succeeded.

However, I'm not sure it's a problem with the plugin. For me, this problem arises from the update to iOS 17.3.1. Before upgrading to that version, everything worked fine. I can also say that I have downgraded to the version of the 0.16.2 plugin and it works correctly again. That is the latest version of the plugin that works well for me, even with iOS 17.3.1. The bug may have been earlier but I realized a few days after installing that version of iOS and I don't know if it has to do with it. Be that as it may, for me it is not a serious failure because on very few occasions the heating temperature is 25°. I'm sorry I can't give more information. Thank you for the time and effort to try to solve the problems and improve the plugin. It makes my life easier.

[grzegorz914]

Please post the debug log, because I’m on latest plugin version and iOS 17.4 and the temp can be set to 31C. Have You other Heather/Cooler or Thermostat in Home app which can be set to 31C?

Update: 25°C limit seems to be applied only on heating, because on cooling and automode it can be highened to more then 30°C

[ForkoB]

It is not connected with iOS 17.4 or 17.3.1 I deleted the bridge from the Homekit, restarted the Homebridge, and it returns the same error (without to be added back to the Homekit.

[grzegorz914]

Ok, I will look into this deeper next week because Im on holiday..

[grzegorz914]

Is the problem with all modes: Auto, Heat, Cool?

[daniburton1]

Seems only on heat for me

[peibol81]

For me too, the problem is only on heat mode.

Nice holidays!

[grzegorz914]

should be fixed in 0.16.17

[daniburton1]
