Evohome HGI80 multi-controller update released

I've just released an update to the Evohome code which fixes problems in using the HGI80 in environments with multiple Evohome installations or other Honeywell wireless thermostat systems. I've updated the Domoticz Evohome wiki section 'Adding Evohome Hardware Device to Domoticz' which describes how to enter your controller ID to enable this functionality. The update is now included in the main Domoticz beta code and should get included in the next compiled beta release. Note: this updated functionality also supports adding multiple USB devices; HGI80s or equivalent, if a user has multiple Evohome systems that they want to control via Domoticz.

Another quick Evohome update. The following two small updates have just been included in the main Domoticz beta:
  • Added a new 'Boiler (OT Bridge)' device (Unit=252) which logs the heat demand messages sent from the Opentherm Bridge, if installed.
  • Updated the device auto-naming functionality to improve its reliability. The auto-naming now requests a complete set of zone names on 3 occasions (immediately at startup, 5min and 1h following startup) as the previous solution would often fail and leave some devices with their default names.
