You have to create a (hidden)
dummy device switch for each valve.

Use this Json URL to set SetPoint
http://127.0.0.1:8080/json.htm?type=set ... &used=true
Just change the idx to IDX from your Thermostat.

My Bedroom has a Temp+Humidity Sensor. Further I will look how I can create other Virtual Thermostat with this Sensor.
In my Bathroom the Tempsensor is a 18b20 which gives only the temp.

Also, I think there is a bug with regards to the code
Previously, I've set to delete unwanted devices. However, afterwards I changed this back to not delete unwanted devices, but now Domoticz does not want to re-create the deleted switch anymore. It throws this error:

Code: Select all

2018-11-07 20:04:06.316 Error: (MAXCube) Device creation failed, Hardware/Unit combination (9:3) already exists in Domoticz.
2018-11-07 20:04:06.316 Error: (MAXCube) Device 'MAXCube - BadkamerRadiator - Mode' could not be created. Is 'Accept new Hardware Devices' enabled under Settings? 

I've double checked; Accept new Hardware Devices' is enabled and the devices is not in the Devices list.

Thank you

Kind regards.

@mvzut

I´ve looked for some script to split Temp/hume on DHT11. But nothing worked. Do you have a working script for this?

commandArray = {}

source = 'Sensor A'  -- name of temperature + humidity sensor
target = 'Sensor B'  -- name of dummy temperature-only sensor

if devicechanged[source] then
  commandArray['UpdateDevice'] = otherdevices_idx[target]..'|0|'..otherdevices_svalues[source]:match("([^;]+);")
end
  
return commandArray

I have been able to recreate your bug, it was related to the internal device numbering logic. It should now be resolved (see Github). Thanks for finding this!

I have thought about adding it to the Plugin Manager, but wasn't sure if this was really necessary because there are probably not many users of MAX! hardware. However, it seems fairly easy to do, and it doesn't hurt either . So I think I'm just going to submit it.

• Made the minimum valve level for controlling the heat demand switch configurable. I noticed some people wanted to tweak this value to avoid too "nervous" switching of their boiler. I had to sacrifice one other parameter for this, I chose to remove the "Delete unwanted devices" option. It will now always delete devices that you don't want.
• Made some small modifications to the logging, to mimic the logging format of Domoticz internal hardware updates
• Did some code cleanup, making it slightly more efficient
• Removed the detailed explanation of the features from the plugin's configuration screen, since this did not render very well in some themes. All necessary information about installation and configuration is now available on the Github README page (https://github.com/mvzut/maxcube-Domoticz-plugin)
• Added a check if value has really changed when writing new setpoints or modes to the thermostats. This may help to reduce "EQ-3 hardware (..) thread seems to have ended unexpectedly" errors when changing many setpoints at the same time (e.g. from a script). Thanks michass for pointing this out!

It has been added!
