V_HVAC_FLOW_STATE and V_HVAC_FLOW_MODE

[dbemowsk]

Does anyone know when or if V_HVAC_FLOW_STATE and V_HVAC_FLOW_MODE will be implimented? I have seen requests for this from 2 years ago, and still nothing has been done. If I knew more about the underlying code, I'd try myself, but unfortunately I don't.

"still" ?

how about:

I have seen requests for this from 2 years ago, but as far as i know, it has not been implemented yet.

If you knew more about the underlying code....

there is only one way to find out... and the mysensors code is for sure not big nor complicated

It just surprises me that for the requests I have seen requesting this to be implemented, it is still not there. I am making things work with the selector switch type, but it would be nice to have it integrated into on control that is made for it so we wouldn't have to hack it.

Well, as i do not own such a device, i also cant test it.
So if there is a developer that is in need for this, lets hope he/she will add it to the system

@gizmocuz, thanks for the replies. I do understand how it is when you don't have hardware for testing. Out of curiosity, is there any devices already implemented in Domoticz that you know of that cover some of this functionality so if I tried to add this myself I would have some code to base it on? Coming into this code blind with nothing to reference would be difficult.

I do have a hacked solution that I put together in the past few days that is working for now that covers my V_HVAC_FLOW_STATE. It uses a dummy switch set as a selector with a V_TEXT object that passes information to the MySensors node. I then have a lua script that does some translation on the Domoticz side to make it all work. If anyone is interested I can post the code with more detailed instructions on how I accomplished this.
