Script Heating Control Issues [Solved]

[jkimmel]

I'm still playing around with the following script

Code: Select all

-- assumptions:
-- the setpoint is set by a selector dummy device where the values are numeric temperatures

local BOILER_DEVICE = 'FB 42 Heizkreis Bad' -- switch device
local INFRAROT_DEVICE = 'FB 31 Infrarot'      -- switch device
local SETPOINT_DEVICE = 'Solltemperatur Bad' -- selector dummy device
local TEMPERATURE_SENSOR = 'Bad'
local MODUS_DEVICE = 'Modus Waermepumpe' -- selector dummy device
local LOGGING = true

return {
	on = {
		
	timer = {'every 10 minutes'},
	
	    logging =   
    {
        level = domoticz.LOG_DEBUG, -- set to LOG_ERROR when tested and OK
        marker = 'setSetpoint', 
    },


	active = true,
	execute = function(domoticz, timer)

		local sensor = domoticz.devices(TEMPERATURE_SENSOR)
		local current = sensor.temperature
		local boiler = domoticz.devices(BOILER_DEVICE)
		local setpoint = domoticz.devices(SETPOINT_DEVICE)
		local modus = domoticz.devices(MODUS_DEVICE)
		local infrarot = domoticz.devices(INFRAROT_DEVICE)
		
	    
		-- now determine what to do
		if (setpoint.state == nil or setpoint.state == 'Off') then
			boiler.switchOff()
			infrarot.switchOff()
			return -- we're done here
		end

		local setpointValue = tonumber(setpoint.state)


		if LOGGING then
			domoticz.log('Setpoint: ' .. setpointValue, domoticz.LOG_DEBUG)
			domoticz.log('Current boiler state: ' .. boiler.state, domoticz.LOG_DEBUG)
		end

		if (current > setpointValue and boiler.state == 'On') then
			if LOGGING then domoticz.log('Target temperature reached, boiler off') end
			boiler.switchOff()
			infrarot.switchOff()
		end

		if (current <= setpointValue and boiler.state == 'Off' and  modus.state == 'Heizen' ) then
			if LOGGING then domoticz.log('Target temperature not reached, boiler on') end
		boiler.switchOn()
		infrarot.switchOn()
		
		end
end
}
}

I skipped smoothing, hysteresis and triggering by device.
I think monitoring temperature and setpoint every 10 minutes does the job.
But the script as is does not switch the devices as it should so I need help oncemore.

The days coming I'll have a lot of time tinkering around because here (Mallorca) we are bound to stay at home at least the next week

can you try this and if not working yet share what you see in the log ?

Code: Select all

-- assumptions:
-- the setpoint is set by a selector dummy device where the values are numeric temperatures

local BOILER_DEVICE = 'FB 42 Heizkreis Bad' -- switch device
local INFRAROT_DEVICE = 'FB 31 Infrarot'      -- switch device
local SETPOINT_DEVICE = 'Solltemperatur Bad' -- selector dummy device
local TEMPERATURE_SENSOR = 'Bad'
local MODUS_DEVICE = 'Modus Waermepumpe' -- selector dummy device
local LOGGING = true

return 
{
    on = 
    {
        timer = 
        {
            'every 10 minutes'
        },
    },

    logging =   
    {
        level = LOGGING and domoticz.LOG_DEBUG or domoticz.LOG_ERROR,
        marker = 'setSetpoint', 
    },

    execute = function(dz)

        local boiler = dz.devices(BOILER_DEVICE)
        local infrarot = dz.devices(INFRAROT_DEVICE)

        local temperature = dz.devices(TEMPERATURE_SENSOR).temperature
        local setpoint = dz.devices(SETPOINT_DEVICE).levelName
        local modusState = dz.devices(MODUS_DEVICE).state

        local boilerState = boiler.state
        local setpointValue = tonumber(setpoint)

        dz.log('Setpoint: ' .. setpointValue, dz.LOG_DEBUG)
        dz.log('Current boiler state: ' .. boilerState, dz.LOG_DEBUG)

        -- now determine what to do
        if setpoint == 'Off' then
            boiler.switchOff()
            infrarot.switchOff()
        elseif temperature > setpointValue and boilerState == 'On' then
            dz.log('Target temperature reached, boiler off')
            boiler.switchOff()
            infrarot.switchOff()
        elseif temperature <= setpointValue and boilerState == 'Off' and modusState == 'Heizen'  then
            dz.log('Target temperature not reached, boiler on')
            boiler.switchOn()
            infrarot.switchOn()
        end
    end
}

Thanks Waaren script is running except I don't see any logging, only

Code: Select all

My loglevel = Debug (everything)

Also other scripts show no logging

What kind of additional logging do you expect ?

[jkimmel]

Code: Select all

 dz.log('Setpoint: ' .. setpointValue, dz.LOG_DEBUG)
        dz.log('Current boiler state: ' .. boilerState, dz.LOG_DEBUG

Code: Select all

dz.log('setpoint = Off or Modus >< Heizen', domoticz.LOG_INFO)

Code: Select all

dz.log('Target temperature reached, boiler off', domoticz.LOG_INFO)

Code: Select all

dz.log('Target temperature not reached, boiler on', domoticz.LOG_INFO)

These are excerpts from my script. None of them show up

Edit:
I did not read the log carefully enough.
Everything is ok
