my.tado.com delivers no sensorDataPoints for type "HOT_WATER"

@CrazyChaos I don't think, your hot water "device" will work with a climate device! It seems that it is not delivering data for the current data. Can you "turn it on" and post the state result again?

[CrazyChaos]

Hey wmalgadey, hereby:

{  
   "tadoMode":"HOME",
   "geolocationOverride":false,
   "geolocationOverrideDisableTime":null,
   "preparation":null,
   "setting":{  
      "type":"HOT_WATER",
      "power":"ON",
      "temperature":{  
         "celsius":55.00,
         "fahrenheit":131.00
      }
   },
   "overlayType":null,
   "overlay":null,
   "openWindow":null,
   "link":{  
      "state":"ONLINE"
   },
   "activityDataPoints":{  

   },
   "sensorDataPoints":{  

   }
}

I use the Tado thermostat btw. Not a climate device.

[wmalgadey]

Yes, I think that the "HOT_WATER" type is for your heating system (a boiler!?). And this has apparently no sensorDataPoints :(

[CrazyChaos]

Correct, I do have a boiler in the unit... Now what?

[wmalgadey]

Maybe it just gives sensorDataPoints, when it actually does something? Do you see the current temperature for this zone in my.tado.com?

I would skip the creation of climate devices for zones with type == HOT_WATER. In the moment I create additional sensors for type==HEATING, but I could create special sensors for HOT_WATER. So currently I could just present the information for the current temperature setting (55°C in your example).

the commit https://github.com/wmalgadey/home-assistant/commit/a7e88bdadf5a4468f0355190e8ac72acfe6ca57e fixed your problem, but it is no good solution, when there is no actual data to present, isn't it?

[CrazyChaos]

The only thing you see and can do is set the temperature and set is on or off for the same periodes as the wanted temperature at home. That's it. The current temperature isn't displayed.

[wmalgadey]

Ok! Than I will remove the climate device for this type and will just add some sensors. To see the state and the temperature setting

[CrazyChaos]

And not able to control them?

[wmalgadey]

I think a climate device is to much, for just switching it on and of. I will look how it is possible to add this action to a sensor!

does the on/off switch and the temperature setting work in the moment?

[CrazyChaos]

What do you mean with in the moment? Direct? Yes they do. You can only change the temperature when it is ON between 30 and 65 `C. But that maybe has to do with my central heating.

[wmalgadey]

Yes I mean, if you could change the on/off state with the current implementation?

[CrazyChaos]

No I can't. Can't do anything tbh

[CrazyChaos]

Hey @wmalgadey, it is quite quiet here. Just curious, did you make some progress?

[wmalgadey]

I didn't forget about this :)

But I am quite busy at work in the moment. I hope I can start off again end of next week.

[CrazyChaos]

You did fix: 6943, did you make some progress on this one?

[wmalgadey]

I did some progress on this. Maybe you try my custom component? I merged the changes from hass, so it can be used to test the functionality (https://github.com/wmalgadey/tado_component)
