I assume that your radiator stays worm for all the time, am I right? That’s opposite behavior from that what I can achieve with Genreic Thermostat
Yes, they do. Or at least they care about opening and closing the valve themselves because they are setpoint devices.
But what I wanted to say is that you maybe don’t need any custom control and are just satisfied with their setpoint capabilities. Have you already tried how good that works?
Nice job! Will try this those days and give feedback
@matt2005 I just wanted to let you know that there have been breaking changes in the schedule system and temperature expressions which should it make more straightforward to include your external logic into schedules. I find your blog post to be very interesting, so please let me know if you need further information about Heaty-related things.
It’s not my blog post. I just saw it a while ago and haven’t yet had chance to give it a go properly as im waiting for hardware to interface with my heating.
Ah, I see. Nevertheless it’s an interesting idea. Maybe I’ll get back to it when I’ve got some time.
Hey Mate. Got some strage issuue
https://github.com/efficiosoft/hass-heaty/issues/1
I opened a ticket… Ifyou have tinme you might help me with this ?
Thanks for this nice piee of software… waiting my 3 IR climate controllers for my AC

Hi,
You seem to use the latest version from git master branch, which is fine. However, all schedule switch related stuff has been removed recently as noted in the git commit logs. Because version is pre 1.0.0, such compatibility-breaking changes may happen. Sorry for that, but it’s necessary.
Simply remove master_controls_schedule_switches and all schedule switches you might have defined in the rooms section. Then it should work.
Well still not working:

I uploaded a fix which closes the issue. What I wrote there is valid for off_temp as well. Put the value “off” in quotes to tell YAML you mean the string, not the boolean.
And, by the way, I see that you have added a sensor to the thermostats section. Thermostats have to be setpoint devices using the climate platform… Just wanted to make that clear.
I don’t understand … I have a z wave climate component… What can i put there?
I think you are very familiar with python and might be interested in developing another app? I’d like having the braodlink CLimate custom component for Xiaomi Chuagnir . There is a Switch custom component for the xiaomi ir blaster but no climate component. Would you mind throwing an eye on this? Would be awesome. Like this i could use those for my setup
Probably, your Z-Wave climate component generates multiple entities. Mine do as well. There should be an entity starting with climate. besides the sensor. you used. Just look it up in Home Assistant’s web interface. Best would be to go under Settings -> Customize -> Select the entity that has climate, probably at the end of its name. Then, look up the new_entity_id at the right sight. That’s it.
Maybe one Z-Wave thermostat produces even multiple climate entities. Mine generate three per thermostat. You have to take the one you also use to set the temperature manually via the web interface.
Sorry, but I’ve got none of these. And, at the moment, I’ve got enough work with Heaty
But the community is large and there might be someone having these units at home and wanting to integrate them.
