Home Kit Automations not kicking off Thermostat

[Githubnewbynewb]

Describe The Bug: I create automations for my thermostat after installing the plugin and they are seemingly ignored by the plugin/HomeKit.

To Reproduce: For me, I cannot get the thermostat to recognize setting the thermostat to a warmer or cooler temp at a specified time OR with the other parameters Apple allows you to input for a trigger.

Expected behavior: Expect that when I set the automation up properly it will run and the thermostat will change based on the parameters in the automation I have set up in HomeKit. Logs:

I really have none.

I am not sure what this is…I have HOOBs.

@Githubnewbynewb I finally had a free evening to dig into this. Was able to get it working in most cases. The only case still outstanding is if the thermostat is off and your automation sets the temp along with turning it on. Specifically if the desired temp is different than when the thermostat was last in the state your automation is going to. For example:

• Thermostat is set to Heat at 70*.
• You turn it off for whatever reason.
• Automation triggers to turn it to Heat at 72*.
• Result will be it is turned on to Heat at 70. The desired 72 is lost.

If you're just changing temps and not going from Off to On, it seems to be just fine now.
