temperatureAboveAsOff not working #139

Closed MaestroCollin closed 1 year ago

MaestroCollin commented 1 year ago

I have set this option to on but the thermostat doesn't turn to off in homekit

luc-ass commented 1 year ago

Did you find a fix?

MaestroCollin commented 1 year ago

Kinda, i found out that it is the current heatingCooling state instead of the target one.

However, I still can't use it in an automation.. any idea why?

luc-ass commented 1 year ago

From what I can see, the state can not be used as a trigger. Neither Home.app nor Eve.app give an option to do that.

MaestroCollin commented 1 year ago

In controller.app you can use it as a trigger for automations. In eve.app too, but it's named to valve, the value can be either open or closed.

luc-ass commented 1 year ago

The valve value actually reflects the valve position. It isn't changed by this plugin. Could you describe your use case? Perhaps we can find something useful to change in the plug-in ;)

MaestroCollin commented 1 year ago

If the current temperature is below the target temperature I want to trigger an automation for my heating panel connected to an smart plug.

MaestroCollin commented 1 year ago

Is it maybe possible to add some kind of switch or toggle exposed to HomeKit?

georgesdib commented 1 year ago

My PR #143 adds the valve position to be exactly that, valve is closed if temperature is below and vice versa. You could then use that as a trigger.

luc-ass commented 1 year ago

@georgesdib's PR is now available as v0.11.0. Could someone test, whether the valve position works as expected?

5xPa commented 1 year ago

I would be more than happy to test. But I am unsure what's required

luc-ass commented 1 year ago

Simply update the plugin in Homebridge. It has been released today.

I have already updated and Switched the hot water On from Homekit. Off from Evohome App. Switched On from app Switched Off from Homekit I thought your were requesting %valve position

If you check the valve position in the Eve app, when the target temperature is above current temperature it should show the valve to be open and vice versa. It’s 100% or 0% binary. The PR had both changes at once.

Seems to be working for me, awesome, thanks!!

I have never used the Eve app to look at radiator Thermostats. Was surprised when it shows a graph of temperatures . For each room except the Living room! didn't know this was available. As tend to use only HomeKit app I don't see anything showing % valve position

You may need to enable but clicking on Edit on top right and enable valve

5xPa commented 1 year ago

Thanks that was what was required
