Climate Scheduler

Thank you, appreciate that.

Hi there! This is my first post on here – I'm moderately new to HA (a few months) and so far, I've been learning a lot. I'm migrating from Vera and Lua, so it's rather like being a kid in a sweetshop!
I've finally got round to migrating the heating from Vera to HA, and initially, all was going well with Climate Scheduler. I think you've pretty much nailed needs for a heating programmer. Thank you so much for the skill and time you've put into it.
My main aim is to set up different heating profiles for each room. Saving money not heating rooms that aren't being used at that time of day will (I hope) be a big win.
I am having a problem, though!
Initially, I had two rooms controlled. I added a third and all was well. Once I add a fourth, everything begins to go wrong. The curves for one room start bleeding into other rooms. Usually, the curve for the room I've just set up bleeds into the one before. It replaces the data there, and no amount of refreshing the cache seems to work. I have deleted the entire installation (many times!), re-dowloaded, reinstalled in HACS, restarted, reinstalled the integration, restarted, cache cleared, re-added the card, and tried reprogramming it, but it keeps happening.
HA is on an HA Green, I'm communicating with HA from a Mac, and iPad or an iPhone. Usually the Mac with the HA app, but sometimes with Chrome and sometimes with Safari.
Note that being new to HA and HACS, it's difficult for me to follow debugging instructions for the old HACS interface because I never used it. I've only just realised that this was one of my problems – I thought there was something else I hadn't installed or found.
In any case, so far as I can make out, everything is installed properly and it superficially seems to work, but somehow, its database is getting corrupted. Is there a file with information that could have been corrupted that isn't being deleted by the "delete and reinstall" approach? What else could I try?
Thanks in advance, and also retrospectively for all the hard work – I'm truly in awe.

What profile names are you using? Profiles used to be unique by schedule, so "Upstairs" default and "Downstairs" default are completely independent. I've now changed it so profiles are global so "default" for one would be the same as for any other schedule using "default".

The documentation may still be out of date in some places and reference the wrong thing so sorry if that's the case.

Hi. This is a fantastic integration. I have abandoned any and all of my brute force automation attempts in favor of it. I do have one issue I've been trying to work out. I have a door/window sensor set up ( keeps me from cooling the outside when the better half leaves windows and doors open) that puts the scheduler in a state of "off" by disabling the schedule and activating a Profile of "SystemOFF" When conditions are right, it turns them back on to "cool" or "heat" profiles and enables the schedule. The scheduler shows the appropriate conditions settings but:

I haven't been able to cleanly get it to turn the actual climate entity on and run the current schedule. To get around it, I push an advance, then cancel the advance. This works, but seems a bit of a brute force fix. AM I missing a setting somewhere?
Thanks again for all of the great work!

Glad it's proving useful! I've not got anything built in to handle door/window sensors or presence detection either which has been a common request, instead I think some folks have been using Better Thermostat which has some of this built in. If I understand it right it means you can configure your actual thermostat in to a virtual climate entity which has what you need built in. After that's set up you can control the virtual thermostat using this addin.

Thank you for all the work you put into this. So many cool features. Just installed and testing out. Couple questions/comments. Using the profiles to setup Home, Away and Vacation. Was able to toggle them for each thermostat with automation based on presence. Question 1 - is there an easy way to setup a winter and summer mode or do I need to have a separate summer/winter profile for all states? Would be ideal to have a heat mode schedule and cool mode schedule. Question 2 - having a simple toggle button to disable this completely and allow fully manual control of the thermostat would help with the wife approval factor. Can tell her if all else fails just hit this button and control thermostat yourself lol. As a workaround was thinking of creating a profile with no settings in it to see if that works. If anyone else has resolved this, let me know. Thanks again for all the work on this and the active engagement.

Winter/summer would need to be separate profiles.

There are actions that Climate Assistant makes available that lets you enable/disable schedules but I can't remember if there's one that'll enable/disable the whole thing. My Home Assistant instance is currently offline so sorry to say I can't check it. At worst you could create a button or switch helper that can be used to trigger an automation and enable/disable the schedules en masse

Thank you for a truly great integration with so many features. I installed it and it's working well. I have one very small niggle - the sensors climate_scheduler_coldest_entity and warmest have some weird values - I suspect caused by the fact that I'm in the US and using Fahrenheit :frowning:
The actual temperature should be around 79 F, so what I think is happening is the 79F is being unnecessarily converted to Celsius which gives the 170+ readings.

I live in Phoenix, Arizona but 172 F would be hot even for here :slight_smile:

Also the sensors climate_scheduler...rate are in C/hr rather than F/hr .
