fibaro linked device for thermostat

[meme1981]

hi, in my fibaro hc2 I use linked device as thermostat, there's any possibilities to have temperature sensors as thermostat to use them as in Fibaro? thanks

[ilcato]

Can you clarify please?

[meme1981]

ok, i use a temperature sensor linked in panel linked devices , in my phone app the temperature sensor change from temperature sensor to danfoss. if I put in shadows.js case "com.fibaro.temperatureSensor": controlService = new hapService.Thermostat(device.name); ecc... homekit see temperature sensor as thermostat and i can change the value in fibaro but it's always in heat, i can't stop, so i have (x example) heating to 10° while home temperature is 20.

thankyou

Non capisco

italiano: per impostare il riscaldamento io ho fatto un linked device tra un attuatore e una sonda di temperatura e l'ho associato a una stanza; da quel momento sulla app fibaro non vedo piu' la sonda di temperatura ma il controllo termostato. quando lo importo in homekit pero' viene vista come sonda di temperatura.

english: to set up the heating, I made a linked device between an actor and a temperature sensor and I associated it to a room; from that moment on the fibaro-app I no longer see the temperature sensor but the thermostat control. when the amount in the homekit is however seen as a temperature probe.

I tried to create a linked device similarly to your setup but the temperature sensor remain a sensor and I don't see a thermostat. How does it work?

[meme1981]

to me too, to use it as thermostat i put temperature sensor as thermostat in shadows.js, so it can work as thermostat.but it's always inheriting mode

[ilcato]

but remaining in Home Center: how do you use the linked device?

[meme1981]

if i from iphone modify temperature it work perfectly but iphone don't take data from fibaro so it's always in heating

[ilcato]

From the native Fibaro app?

SALA Temp is my temperature sensor, from homekit i put 10°, in fibaro app it work perfectly but in homekit i have heating to 10. it's possible to have cooling or off? i tried in getFunctions.js to modify but it no change status from heating to off

[ilcato]

Forget the homekit stuff for a moment. In my understanding a linked device in Home Center is only manageable from the heating panel (or other panels). Your are saying that "SALA temp" is a temperature sensor that after linking it to a switch became a thermostat visible as a device in the Fibaro UI in place of the temperature sensor? This is not happening to me when I setup a linked device like in your case. Which products do you have (Home Center, version, ...).

[ilcato]

Contact me directly so we can setup a call to better understand the issue.

[meme1981]

SALA Temp is a fgms-001 if you have a private mail i send to you the access to control directly in fibaro and in homebridge

[meme1981]

i write to you by E-mail

[ilcato]

As discussed directly the current Fibaro API doesn't allow the control of linked devices.

Hello!

First, thanks for providing such a plugin.

So basically I have been trying to understand how to add a "Virtual Thermostat" to the iOS home app in order to control heating or cooling devices. Usually this is done in Fibaro via linked devices (a sensor + a relay) which will appear in the Fibaro mobile app as a virtual thermostat.

The question : Is there a way to accomplish the above without having a physical thermostat unit?

Thanks.
