OK, so I have a number of older Heatmiser thermostats around the house, together with a multilink which manages them all. I am trying to add to my HA, but having trouble. Not sure I understand the required info:
Going by the components page i’m using the following:
climate:
- platform: heatmiser
ipaddress: 192.168.0.5
port: 80
tstats:
- 1:
id: 1
name: test
This is for one of the PRT-TS (Touchscreen) wireless thermostats.
Firstly, the notes state that ID is a required field, and should be the same as configured on the thermostat. Only I have no idea what that is, or whether the ones I have are even configurable with such. Going from another example on these forums, I’ve gone with an arbitrary ‘1’ but on checking config I am getting the following errors:
Failed config
climate.heatmiser:
platform: heatmiser
ipaddress: 192.168.86.5
port: 80
tstats: [source /config/configuration.yaml:135]

The components file suggests that the PRT range of heatmisers are supported. Anyone have a clue?
thx
I now have all three stats listed and named correctly. One point, which I didn’t mention before, you may want to update the readme to add a possible update that may be required. My stats don’t have external temperature sensors, I believe they’re built in. I had to change the value ‘floor_temp’ to ‘air_temp’ for the temperatures to be read correctly. Others may have to make that change.
