Hi, I have a weird problem with away switches of thermostats. Can someone get anything out of this quote from the device manual:
Since Zigbee does not have away mode, the attribute Occupancy (occupied or unoccupied) of Thermostat (0x0201) and attribute Occupancy of received OccupancySensing (0x0406) are required to judge whether it is away mode.
if the device receives other devices’ or the gateway’s report: the Bit 0 of the value of attribute Occupancy (0x0000) of OccupancySensing Cluster (0x0406) is 1, which means occupied, then the operation mode of the thermostat, the attribute SystemMode(0x001c)=0x04(heat) of Thermostat (0x0201), meanwhile the value of attribute Occupancy (0x0002) of Thermostat (0x0201) is 0. It means the Away Mode is activated, and the thermostat UI will display.
SUNRICHER-SR-ZG9092A-Zigbee-Heating-Thermostat- (37).
if the gateway send command to modify the attribute SystemMode(0x001c) of Thermostat (0x0201), the thermostat will quit Away Mode. Meanwhile the value of attribute Occupancy (0x0002) of Thermostat (0x0201) is 1.
The proprietary attribute 0x2002(Manufacturer Code=0x1224) of the cluster 0x0201 can be modified to configure whether it is away mode or at home.
Note: Away Mode uses attribute UnOccupiedHeatingSetpoint to set temperature. Other modes uses attribute OccupiedHeatingSetpoint to set temperature.
Is there something in that which causes the thermostat to change the away mode on and off by itself randomly? I have two of the same models and both of them are switching the away switch at the same time. I have no automations for them, so it has to be the device(s) themselves. I don’t understand the text well enough.
