Fetch thermostat temperature from sinric server to esp8266 on reboot

[amanjn92]

Hi

I am trying to make a thermostat which regulates my AC (using IR LED acting as remote) and a fan (using relay) depending upon room temperature (using DHT11). I have been able to put everything together but am facing 1 small issue. I don't know how to fetch the thermostat temperature from the server when the device restarts.

In my code, when somebody changes the thermostat temperature, that temperature is set as low temperature (temp at which AC shuts down and Fan switches on).

bool onTargetTemperature(const String &deviceId, float &temperature) { Serial.printf("Thermostat %s set temperature to %f\r\n", deviceId.c_str(), temperature);

if (controlstatus==true){ lowtemp = temperature; hightemp = lowtemp+2; }

This happens only when somebody changes the thermostat temp using Google Home. How do I make this happen everytime the device restarts or periodically say once every hour?

Hello @amanjn92 !

The desired temperature is transmitted to your device in the onTargetTemperature callback. You should save the temperature in a variable so that your Sketch can access it at any time.

To "fetch" this value from the server when your device is restarted, call the function SinricPro.restoreDeviceStates(true); before calling SinricPro.begin(...).

When your device is restarted, the last value known to the server is then transferred to your device (using onTargetTemperature). So you don't need to implement anything else.

Please see the documentation for restoreDeviceStates
