New Request: ROTH Touchline - Underfloor Heating System

Installing the newest vertion of pytouchline should fix the cache problem that i was refering to above.

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pytouchline/0.7

How do i install it? i’m running HA on Qnap nas server. can i just switch the file init.py?

Would like to contribute, but I don’t know much about Python. But, if we at least could decide on what is missing to the Touchline component, maybe we could coorporate on getting this project moving on?

What I think is missing, is at least the operation mode, meaning the six modes:

  • Normal
  • Night
  • Holiday
  • Pro I
  • Pro II
  • Pro III

… and the option to change between them. Editing the programs from HA would probably be to much work and to little benefit in daily use.

Would also be nice to display min_temp and max_temp when you click a thermostate - setting them would be over the top, but I think that is quite complicated to do?

Ok, so I did some work on the component, most time was spend with setting up the virtual env in Ubuntu, as I use VirtualBox to run my VM. In the end I managed to get it all set up correctly (bridging on a wireless NIC is a apparantly a problem in VirtualBox!)

This is where I am right now, I have enabled the switching between different modes, when saving the current mode it actually maps out to a weekend program and an operation mode, but I think it is easier to just have one select-option with all the options in one.

Ooops… need to change “Vacation” to “Holiday” (and think about translating stuff)

Well done!

Do you have the source code on GitHub or similar? May I take a look? :slight_smile:

I only have it locally for now, as I am still testing it out. But I have linked to a zipped version of “touchline[.]py” that should work out of the box if you replace the old one (rename the old one and keep it for backup) :slight_smile:

Download touchline.zip

Once again, well done! Give me some time and I will also test it locally. :slight_smile:

Have anybody tested the new FW 2.8?
And is the pytouchline code still working towards this FW?

http://www.roth-nordic.no/no/roth-soft-og-firmwareoppdateringer-2274.htm

Not tested yet and unsure if I will. I’m on my phone but cannot find any changelog anywhere. Did you found it?

“Aktivering av den 6, Multifunksjons knapp” - Which one?

Hi guys,

Been waiting for this component so thank you so much :slight_smile:
Anyway I get this error when I enable the component:

Any ideas? Running 0.62.1 with HASSIO on a RPI3.

Could you post your config for this component?

Sure!

tts:
  - platform: google

climate:
  - platform: touchline

As described here

You need to add http:// before the IP address.

I.e http://192.168.1.1

climate:
  - platform: touchline
    host: http://192.168.1.183

Thanks! :slight_smile:

Now I feel really stupid :wink:
I’ll suggest a small change to the component documentation page.

Hello

pretty sure i have FW 2.8

And it is not working, i am back to te old touchline.py

something about it doesnt recive opration status. i can but it back in and try again it you want a log file?

Probably the same problem here. I can change the setpoints and the thermostats updates accordingly, but the mode is being red as “Unknown”

This is lacking functionality in the component. @pilehave working on adding the operation status to the touchline component.
