Change mode of heat valve

Post by sailmich »

RPi3
Z-Stick
newest beta

Happy Christmas,
I have problems with Eurotronic spirit to switch them in different modes with dzvents. In control panel I can switch between mode Off/HeatEco/Full Power/Manufacturer specific. How can I do this with dzvents? I tried domoticz.devices('Heat Eco').updateMode('Off') got
Method updateMode is not available for device "Heat Eco " (deviceType=Thermostat, deviceSubType=SetPoint). If you believe this is not correct, please report.
Same for domoticz.devices('Heat Eco').switchOff()
Method switchOff is not available for device "Heat Eco" (deviceType=Thermostat, deviceSubType=SetPoint). If you believe this is not correct, please report.
Any hint?

The Eurotronic is recognized by dzVents as a Thermostat Setpoint device. This limit the possible dzVents commands for this device to
setPoint as in

Code: Select all

domoticz.devices('Heat Eco').setPoint

and the functions to
updateSetPoint() as in

Code: Select all

domoticz.devices('Heat Eco').updateSetPoint(21)
If you are interested I can work with you to create a new dzVents device-adapter or update an existing one to enable more of the device controls in dzVents for this device. If so please send me a PM.

@waaren thanks for the offer! I believe I wouldn't be helpful I'm not good in coding I just took some code from here and there and put it together to my needs.
If dzvents recognized the Eurotronic in the wrong way, where can I report it?

:oops: I didn't recognized the Thermostat Mode in domoticz device. When select this as used device I can easily switch the mode :o
e.g.
domoticz.devices('Thermostat Mode').updateMode('Off')

To many devices in domoticz came up with Eurotronics Spirit Z-Wave.
I believe for a heating system in Germany and maybe rest of Europe the follow devices are important.
Thermostat Mode = switch between the modes Heat/Heat Eco/Off/Full Power
Heat = here you set the comfort temperature the heating running under normal condition.
Heat Eco = here you can set a lower or higher temperature than comfort temperature.

What furnace are for, I don't know.
