Hi. I am new to HA, but have experience from other home automation systems. From my job I also have experience with plc systems.
I have searched the forum, but can’t find a good answer to my problem. I am trying to set up a simple schedule to control the setpoint of a z-wave thermostat depending of the time of day and day of week, see attached example of what I want to do.
I have made a test schedule by using the helper function. The schedule has different blocks back to back, allthough slightly simpler than the attached example.
My problem is I am unable to distinguish between the different blocks, I can’t name them individually and when setting up an automation I cant trigger on individual blocks.
What is the simplest solution to achieve a schedule to manipulate a device setpoint?
Ok, thanks.
How does it compare to Chronos Scheduler and Schedule Wizard?
Also, how do I install HACS? I’m unable to find it in App Store.
I also tried the link from HomeAssistant web page, but http://homeassistant.local:8123 does not respond even though I can access http://homeassistant.local to configure my system.
Not quite clear what blocks you are referring to, but I switched from using the scheduler to saving the schedule in an attribute. I wouldn’t call it the “simple” approach, but I just have a couple of automations that update the schedule based on the times I enter:
