There's a typo in this line: sripts instead of scripts.

If you're still having problems, try running the maxscript.lua script from the command line and look at potential error messages.

Well I realy need to get my glasses fixed. checked the line several times.

corrected it and now it's, but still not getting the valves and thermostats updated in domoticz.

Have you tried running it directly from the command line?
Did you use the crontab of the standard user "pi" (by using crontab -e) or did you use the system's crontab (by using sudo crontab -e). You should use the latter, otherwise it is only run when user "pi" is logged on.

I used the sude crontab -e

Not quit sure how to run from command line.

did ( from the scripts folder ) lua maxscript.lua ( same command as for maxtest). But there was no output shown, just returned to the prompt.

what command should I use to run from command line?

You used the correct method to run the script from the command line. If it returned nothing, that is in principle good, it means that the script didn't encounter any errors. Check your Domoticz devices, they should have been updated now. Otherwise check your setup>devices screen if no new devices were created accidentally (which should not be possible, but it doesn't hurt to check).

Check your Domoticz devices, they should have been updated now. Otherwise check your setup>devices screen if no new devices were created accidentally (which should really not be possible, but it doesn't hurt to check).

If your devices are updated, add the line you already used using "sudo crontab -e". I expect that it should work then...

Unfortunataly the devices aren't updated, there also no new devices created.

Below what I have within domoticz on the devices tab:
As you can see the devices aren't updated in the last 2 days.. Any other suggestions would be great.

I don't know why, but whenever I change the temp on one valve, three other valves automatically change to the same temp. You can see hereunder the 4 valves that react together ( 16.5°C), though it is absolutely not what I want.

I had this once too. I ended up setting everything up from scratch again (using the hard reset button at the bottom of the cube)

Hello, I appreciate your feedback, I was getting furious against the Max! devices.

By the way, I dirty tweaked your code to retrieve and set auto, manual, boost, holiday info. I think I won't sync it with domoticz but with my python diy system, and create a diy html interface for a dedicated display on the wall.

There is a limitation with the holiday mode, the end date is set to 1947, but i'ts not a real problem.

I'll use the manual or holiday feature because I have 4 children that each come at different periods, so I have to switch some of their room from "confort" to "eco" several times a week.

Can you maybe remove a few commenting prefixes ("--") before print commands, i.e. change "--print(...)" into "print(...)", and then run your script from the command line again? Especially the "print(dtype.." line is interesting. It should then report some of the data it retrieves from the Cube. Just a check to see if the script actually runs. Please post your output here.

deleted all -- items before the print command. and ran script, still no output at all.

Also the command to run script i've used (including path to directory ) ;

pi@raspberrypi:~/domoticz/scripts/lua $ lua maxscript.lua

Oops, I see what goes wrong. The script still contains code to only run every 5 minutes, which is not necessary since it is run from crontab. You should remove these lines: And the last "end" before "return commanArray"
See if that helps!

P.S. I just noticed that you are using a pretty old version of the script. As mentioned a few posts back, I suggest to start using the one described here: http://www.domoticz.com/forum/viewtopi ... 05#p104705
That one should work out of the box (after you set up the IP adress of your Cube etc. in the top section).

well that did something,

now I get an output when I run the script

this is still what domoticz displays. As you can see by the dates its still last seen several days ago.

P.S. I just noticed that you are using a pretty old version of the script. As mentioned a few posts back, I suggest to start using the one described here: http://www.domoticz.com/forum/viewtopi ... 05#p104705
That one should work out of the box (after you set up the IP adress of your Cube etc. in the top section).

missed this comment before. just updated the script and domoticz gets updated but it seems that when I change the setpoints in domoticz and run the script again it doesn't update the setpoints to max cube.

Maybe I looked wrong, will test this some more and let you know.

This part may not work well if you run it from the command line. This has to do with the fact that I need to check which was updated most recently, the Domoticz setpoint or the MAX setpoint, and that part of the code assumes that the script is run every x minutes (where x = 5 by default).

Just activate automatic execution of the script using crontab, and it should start to update both ways.

checked updates in domoticz. All values get updated correctly .

Many thanks for the support.

Great to hear! Always nice to help someone (if I can), and I believe we all learned something in the process .

Hi Mates,

does someone know, whether Max! Basic and Max! Heizungsthermostat reports temperature to Domoticz ?

Seems as if the values could be send to the cube, but the wallunit can´t report it, does it work in Domoticz ?

Kind regards,

Anyone know if this; https://www.box.co.uk/EQ-3-Max!-Boiler- ... #DetailTop is supported within Domoticz via the scripts / some python library?

I have one, but not yet cabled it.. my plan is to use Domoticz to work the boiler actuator and manage the setpoints, so that i never have to touch the cube software directly.
It would also mean I could expose thermostat and boiler control to Alexa via Domoticz

As I look at the manual with this box it responses to the max cube commands when one of the valves/thermostats has a heating request. I'm not sure if the device will be added in domoticz using the provided scripts. But since domoticz is controlling the thermostats and valves and then the cube sends an signal to the boiler contoller there may be no need to see the controller in domoticz. Downsite is that you won't be able to check the status of the boiler within domoticz. Overall I guess it will be able to control your boiler, maybe not directly from domoticz but through the values of the thermostats and valves which are controlled by domoticz.
This is just my opinion, also myself just starting with max! and actually still looking for a good boiler controller solution.
