Re: How to setup a heating plan with dzVents?

I have 5 Eurotronic spirit zwave plus radiator thermostats at home. In the last few days I have been using dzvents and Lua to setup a scheduler for them in combination with 5 temperature sensors and a few virtual switches, which can in some case overule the scheduler. Not what you really want, but I ...

Re: Can databases such as sqlite3 be used in dzvents? [Solved]

Is there a good reason not to use a sqlite3 database to save data obtained from devices? I don't understand your question. Please elaborate. One could use sqlite3/mysql/file to save persistent data, just to have more flexibility with respect to saving data in domoticz.data. It was just a general ...

Re: Can databases such as sqlite3 be used in dzvents? [Solved]

I installad the way you said and it works, although luasocket and luasec don't seem to be needed. Also, is there a good reason not to use a sqlite3 database to save data obtained from devices? Since I know little of dzvents I am wondering if writing to databases (or even external files) could impact ...

Can databases such as sqlite3 be used in dzvents? [Solved]

Hi, If I understand correctly, domoticz uses its own version of Lua for scripting. I see that my version ( I compiled it from sources on a Ubuntu mini PC) has a Lua subdirectory where a version of Lua is compiled. Is it possible to use a database such as Sqlite3 in this context? I tried a script ...

Re: In global_data, how to call a helper function [Solved]

Thank you for the solution to the problem. I would have hoped that there was some object like self or this (which I tried) to reference to the global data. Answering waaren's question, I am trying to compare only the hour and minutes of time, to trigger action on some device every day. Thus, I would ...

In global_data, how to call a helper function [Solved]

Hi, I am new to dzvents, sorry if this is trivial, but I cannot find a way of calling a helper function B from another function A both defined in global_data.lua. Just to be concrete, here is the code I am trying to run. return{ helpers={ mysplit=function(inputstr, sep) if sep == nil then sep = "%s ...

Re: [Solved] Eurotronic spirit z-wave battery consumption

Hi, Just to conclude this thread, I figured out a few days ago that the problem came from the polling interval of the controller stick. This interval was set to 60 s (is this the default ?) and I enabled polling for the Eurotronic thermostat. Anyway, I am now using a longer polling interval (30 ...

Re: New Neo Coolcam Powerplug experiences

This is what I did with the faulty plug, although I included it as a "Node" not "secure Node". But when displaced in the living room (5-6 meters away) where I have a functioning Neo plug, it stopped working correctly and half an hour afterwards it was dead for the controller. I am quite new to ...

Re: New Neo Coolcam Powerplug experiences

I have three of the same model (the new one). Two work pretty well, one of them after two months loses connection at just 5 meters (and a concrete wall) from the controller, the others don't. I guess that's not high quality stuff.

Re: Eurotronic spirit z-wave battery consumption

After this modification, I still see in the log a reference to Eurotronic device once every minute. I don't know where that comes from! For instance, from the log: 2019-11-04 10:58:12.668 (now Zwave) Thermostat (Heat Eco) 2019-11-04 10:58:56.762 (now Zwave) Thermostat (Heat Bed1) 2019-11-04 10:59:05 ...

Re: Eurotronic spirit z-wave battery consumption

I modified the script because I realized that it was calling setPoint at every cycle, if time was in certain windows. Now it will call the thermostat only 5 times a day. Maybe this was at the origin of the consumption problem, although I used a similar script for the Danfoss radiator thermostat ...

Re: Eurotronic spirit z-wave battery consumption

Hi, Thank you for the reply. Could you tell me how many months of actual usage? That is with heating on. In my case the thermostat is in the room next to the controller. That is there is a wall in between them(just dry wall), they are at about 7 m from each other. I am controlling it ...

[Solved] Eurotronic spirit z-wave battery consumption

Hello everyone, I have read that batteries in the Eurotronic spirit z-wave radiator thermostat should be lasting at least 6 months of normal usage. The problem is that my thermostat battery (I have only one as I have been testing it in the last month) after a month is already at 30 %, in the same ...

Re: Danfoss Radiator Thermostat scheduling temperatures does not work...

Maybe it's a bug, I reinstalled the danfoss device (reset it and included it again) a few day afterward and now the Timers button seems to work.
