Scenes not working properly?

[Cloudore]

Hey @wailuen,

Thanks again for the plug-in, which I use daily. The problem I'm experiencing is with my "Good morning" scene, which I have set to turn off my room's AC, turn on my lights, and coffee machine. The problem is, if my AC is already off (because I was too cold at 4am), instead of leaving it off, it'll most of the times turn it ON (sometimes it turns it on and then off again).

It seems weird because if turn my AC off by the controller, leave it on in Sensibo and then turn it off through the Sensibo App, it'll stay off, which means from what I understand that the AC has a dedicated OFF command, this is a conclusion I came to through my troubleshooting however I'm not entirely sure.

Is there a way we can prevent this issue? maybe running some sort of check of state before sending out a power command?

Regards

[wailuen]

I had made some minor changes and looks like it is fixed. Please try latest version 0.2.6 and let me know

[Cloudore]

Hmmm no idea why but this broke the plug in for me(Not responding), it seems like there is a state retrieving problem because before it updates and tells me not responding I can move the fan and It’ll push through to the pod. If there are any logs you want me to provide just tell me where to find them.

Thanks again

Are u able to connect via the Sensibo app? Can u share your homebridge config?

Sometime, I lose connectivity even via the Sensibo app. The guy says I had bad wifi. But it recovers in 10 to 15 mins and life goes back to normal.

Sensibo is working alright, I lost connection from the home app as soon as I did npm update. Is it working perfectly for you?

{ "platform": "SensiboSky", "name": "Sensibo", "apiKey": "XkJtp5Ta5rPWA6xxxxxxxxxxx", "timeLapse": 50, "ai": false, "hideHumidity": false }, Would you like the complete config?

The most interesting part as I mentioned in the last post is that before the plug in updates, when I open the Home app Humidity Fan and AC appear at "0", If I change the state on the AC or Fan at that moment, it does go through to the Sensible pod and AC, but then it updates to not responding on AC Fan and Humidity. If I don't do this it'll update to not responding after like 30 seconds.

Other plugins are working perfectly so I don't think its the Homebridge instance

[wailuen]

Mine is working alright on my both homebridge. Depends on how you have your homebridge setup, the log are are different place. A look at the log might help. Or just run homebridge at the console and show me the output.

I think I got something worthwhile while trying to troubleshoot with the Terminal

Scan this code with your HomeKit App on your iOS device to pair with Homebridge:

Can you pinpoint a problem with this?

Thank you

[Cloudore]

Whoops I closed it by mistake

[wailuen]

Sorry. Had introduced a bug while trying to get Fan AI up. Fixed for now. Please try and let me know for both this and the scene issue. vers 0.2.8

[Cloudore]

The plug-in is back up and running! Same problem while running the Good morning scene when the AC is already off though, it'll sometimes turn it on and then off, and sometimes will turn it only back on , weird

[wailuen]

It work in my test. Could you get me the output of the log after u activate the scence? Also tell me the state of the Aircon before u activate.

It seems like its working properly now that I'm trying to get the log! Let's try it for 48 hours, if the behavior stays as expected I will close the Issue. I think adding the Fan at 0% in the scene had a role.

Thanks @wailuen

[Cloudore]

The problem is still present, but it only appears after not using Home or the Sensibo app for hours. For example, in my Good morning scene, it happens every time, it will turn it on while I set it for off in the scene. The AC beeps twice, one for off, and one for on; but if after it happens I turn it off and try again, it won't happen anymore. Can it be something with the API maybe?

[wailuen]

Hmm.. Could u try with Ai to true? Let me know and I may be able to figure this out. Also, see if you can show me the log as well when u activate the scence. My test is working here and cannot simulate the issue.

I searched the whole system for a Homebridge.log file and I found one, which is empty for some reason. Is there something I should do to activate log keeping? I tried searching but I did not find a solution, will keep trying. I'll also try with ai: true and give you an update when I feel I've tried all scenarios.

Regards

[Cloudore]

Tried it again this morning with ai: true. Worked as expected with the Good morning scene; I then tried with my "good bye" scene (which turns my three ACs off with Sensibo), and my living room AC, which was already off, turned on. It is very weird that the issue isn't constant with all units.

edit: tried good bye scene again now 6 hours after, my room's AC turned on instead of staying off, the other two stayed off.

I'm trying this tonight get the log running so I can provide better info.

[Cloudore]

Think I got something:

This tests were made using the Goodbye scene, which turns off three(3) ACs. The "Lounge" AC, Zack's AC, and Mack's AC.

Failed attempt (Zack's AC was already off, turned on)

Hope this is useful

[wailuen]

I am also having same issue when I activate the scence. Somehow a random Aircon would be turn on when all of them are off. Still did not manage to find time to troubleshoot.

[wailuen]

This require more time to troubleshoot. Will try as soon as I can.

[Cloudore]

Thanks for the follow-up and all the work you've put in the plug-in.

In the hopes that you can solve the issue in this main repo, I think it'd be worth to mention that in @leoneleone's fork (https://github.com/leoneleone/homebridge-sensibo-sky), scenes work perfectly, I would need to try with hideFan(true) on yours, since all he did was place the rotation device inside the thermostat service and I had 0 issues since. I'll try this weekend when I can sit down and test some scenarios.

Regards

[wailuen]

Sorry.. disappeared for a while. I noticed my scene is working fine now which I had not done anything. Maybe something had chaned in Home app itself. Can you confirm ?

[Cloudore]

No worries, I had to do some changes a couple of weeks ago and was able to try this root plug in, unfortunately, the issue persisted. I have no idea why since I'm not much of a programmer and more of a tinkerer, but on my fork, this issue is not present.

[fab301s]

I'm having this issue too and resorted to IFTTT to turn off my Sensibo when used in a scene. Is there anything I can do to help troubleshoot it?

[Cloudore]

@fab301s Do you have 1st gens or sky’s? I experience it on 1st gen

[fab301s]

1st gens, 4 units.
