hi guys
I need help setting up an automatic air conditioning system in my home. My home is using ducted air conditioning. I want each room to be able to set its own temperature.
I want to make it easier to set room temperature for my mom to use!
For example, just a card input 25, the current temperature of the temperature sensor in the room is 26, if the air conditioner temperature is 24, so control the ducted valve to open
I would like to ask how to make a card can input numbers and make it work.
It looks like it needs an entity, which directly changes the air conditioner temperature.
I need a virtual controller to trigger the automation! When I set the room to 25 degrees, first change the damper, until the damper is off, then change the AC temp
Here you set temperatures and what sensor to read and it can maintain a temperature by switching on/off a switch.
The switch can be a template/generic switch that could trigger something else if you can’t use a switch in it’s pure form.
Here is my generic thermostat controlling the temperature in the kitchen and living room.
target sensor is a zigbee temperature sensor, group.vardagsrum is a group of two switches (kitchen and livingroom).
When the switches goes on the thermostat of the radiator valve is changed from 0 degrees to something I can’t remember, but hot.
Because I used this approach the actual TRV’s can’t be manipulated by the family and the temperature is constant in the home.
