That should not be the case. It should be 18 Ā°C because nobody is at home. Outside the heating schedule, the ECO temp is set, inside the absence temp. However, it should be constant even with a heating schedule and absence.
Did you get it fixed?
Hi,
I am having an issue with the latest version of your blueprint, hopefully its something super simple Iāve missed, below is the error log that is being generated:

Could you navigate to you automation, click on trace, select a trace where you see this error (exclamation mark) in the trace, download the trace and share it with me?
//EDIT: also check if this error came after closing a window or a door. May you should enable legacy restore. Let me know if this helps. I will rethink the logic of restoring temperature after closing windows and doors in order to avoid restoring climate states from a scene since many thermostats have problems with this method.
thanks i totally missed that
unfortunatelly, no.
Hi,
I currently donāt have a trace where it has errored as its run OK 4 times since, I will look out for one and post when I doā¦
I have checked the log book and it does appear to occur when a door is opened, however not consistently (I canāt replicate).
I will hold off turning on legacy restore until I get a trace error log for you. (within 24 hours).
thanks for your support.

Hey!
So I tried the new feature dynamic valve position but didnāt get the results I expected.
Maybe @panhans you can explain how the feature should be used correctly and how the temperature should look like. Or maybe you could share your settings and the explanation why you set them up like this. Mine is still very ārelay-likeā even after activating the feature and trying different settings in it.
Hi @panhans,
first of all i want to thank you for this amazing blueprint.
I used v4 and now i try to migrate to v5 but at the moment i got stuck with the party mode. I set an input_boolean as parameter for this. And when i get you correct if i set this to true all other settings (e.g. schedulers, person and so on) should be ignored and heating should start. but unfortunatelly this is not happening. the blueprint fires but stops immediatelly after the first check.

can you please tell me whats wrong and how can i configure this the correct way.
thx a lot
@alexsperlingz
You may share your configuration and of course the graph of your opening entity. I will add a few more explanations and graphics to the documentation in the next few days.
For me it looks like this:
Ideally, the curve would approach below the target temperature and the opening would be at 10%. However, with my heating schedule, the temperature has dropped at that time, so the thermostat has switched off.

@Bodo1981
Thanks for your feedback. A trace log after enabling the party entity or at least your automation configuration in yaml would be helpful.

Hello
This is near perfect. Iām just missing 2 things. Maybe i just dint fond it.
-is it possible to select HVAC mode whit a trigger/helper? I have heat-cool air-co. cool doesnāt need to be on in winter en heat doesnāt need to be on in summer. If a sunny day in winter heats up the house for free i donāt want to cool it.
Can be if outdoor temperature X ā select HVAC mode Y.
-less important. is it possible to set heat/cool tolerance? no use to start up heating/cooling for only 0.5-1Ā°
- I am also adding if solar panels produce enough energy start heat/cool. But that can be easy added with the presences detector. (if X energy is produced āperson energyā is home)
thanks in advance.
Hi
Amazing blueprint.
The only thing I canāt seam to understand. I have the v3 blueprint where I can set the minimum temp. But I canāt find this option in the v5 I also have. Maybe I just need new glasses or this option maybe is under an other name.
Not now atm. Most people use cooling in other ways like heating. So they want to disable the A/C if the target temperature is reached. So they have two automations per room. Since I donāt own an A/C I have no use case for that. But this could be easily done.
Not yet. Itās funny because the most thermostats act like this and do compensate this behavior Iād implemented the aggressive mode.
Your looking for the eco temperature. It just got a renaming.
How do I fix the problem?
Does AHC support temporary target overrides?
What I mean is, if the target temperature is changed by anything except automation or schedule (letā call it āmanual boostā) will it pause the active schedule for a given period?
This would a wonderful feature!
So, I can expose the target to HomeKit and let other family members change the temperature based on their wishes.
You can try to enable phyiscal change / sync and enable reset temperature. You also need entities for eco and comofrt temperature. Keep in mind that this doesnāt work with aggressive mode (except aggressive mode over calibration) / generic calibration.
The problem is that there is a 2 year old bug in home assistant. This makes it impossible to determine what changes the temperature clearly. There was a fix for this but no developer wanted to tackle the problem.
@Ohana_Means_family
I havenāt really understood your problem yet, as the trace log looks correct to me. I will have another look at it later.
Ich glaub der Ćbersetzer verbogt es.
Also, die Automation ist ja so das wenn jemand zu hause ist, der Heizplan von 16 Uhr bis 23 uhr & 5-7 Uhr ist. Aktiv sind es dann inerhalb des Plans ca 21 - 22 Ā°C, AuĆerhalb 20 Ā°C, also die Eco Temp. Wenn keiner Anwesend ist, soll die Temp auf 18 Ā°C eingestellt werden.
Jetzt zum Problem. Wenn KEINER zu hause ist Ć¼ber mehrere Tage, dann sind auĆerhalb des Heizplanes die 18 Ā°C und inherlab des Heizplanes 20 Ā°C, also Eco Temp. Es solte doch aber so sein das, wenn keiner Zu hause ist, die 18 Ā°C bleiben und nicht auf die Eco Temp steigen. Das ist mein Problem. War das jetzt versƤndlicher?
EN:
I think the translator is bending it.
So, the automation is such that when someone is at home, the heating schedule is from 4 pm to 11 pm & 5-7 am. When active, it is then approx. 21 - 22 Ā°C outside the schedule, 20 Ā°C outside, i.e. the Eco Temp. If no one is present, the temp should be set to 18 Ā°C.
Now to the problem. If NO-ONE is at home for several days, then outside the heating plan the temperature is 18 Ā°C and inside the heating plan it is 20 Ā°C, i.e. Eco Temp. But it should be the case that when no-one is at home, the temperature remains at 18 Ā°C and does not rise to Eco Temp. That is my problem. Was that more understandable?
Hi @panhans,
I tried this great automation for one room with success, but when I copied it to a new room it doesnāt work at all.
Maybe we can find the root cause together.
Situation:
- schedule says āonā
- temp is below target temp
but thermostat is off
I noticed that target temp is just āmissingā from log after a manual adjustment of thermostat SonOff TRVZG
Any idea what I should try to fix this issue?
Thanks
Michael
