HmIP-BWTH - Target Temperature #683

Open YogieAnamCara opened 2 years ago

YogieAnamCara commented 2 years ago

Hello,

when I want to switch off a HmIP-BWTH in Homekit, I have to set the Target Temperature to the lowest temperature I can set right? From the Home App, this is 6°C. Then I touch the orange button which is then turning to grey and the current temperature will be displayed.

When I do so I do get this at the log:

[homebridge-homematic] This plugin generated a warning from the characteristic 'Target Temperature': characteristic was supplied illegal value: number 5 exceeded minimum of 6.

I also tried to set any other °C but I always get the above error message when I turn off the HmIP-BWTH (the same happens when I do use the device settings directly at Homebridge). What I believe is that Homekit has a temperature of 6°C as the lowest possible temperature configured whereas HmIP-BWTH has 5°C as the lowest?

Also what I am not knowing is when I use the device settings directly at Homebridge I have the option to set the target temperature next to "Off, Heat, Cool and Auto" but these settings are not present at Homekit (the Apple Home App). Is this something to worry about?

I have configured channel 1 of the HmIP-BWTH for connecting if that matters? Do I need to use a different channel or multiple channels?

Many thanks for help, clarification or looking into this...

Cheers Yogie

I don't like the behavior either. When I switch the group to 'off', it results in a warnings in HomeBridge: This plugin generated a warning from the characteristic 'Target Temperature': characteristic was supplied illegal value: number 4.5 exceeded minimum of 10.

So I customized the group in HomeMatic and set the lowest temperature to 10°. Now, switching the group off doesn't result in a warning anymore. The new problem is, it isn't showen as 'off' anymore. In HomeMatic, HomeBridge and HomeKit it is showen as heating to 10°.

I'd prefer the solution, to edit the minimum of 10 to 4.5 or ... whyt not 0 ... in this plugin to not get warnings anymore.
