Hi,
I have been using Tado with Home Assistant all winter, it is generally working great.
But occasionally my automation runs but the desired heating mode isn’t set on Tado, there are no errors / warnings in the log and if I manually run the automation it works fine:
alias: Turn Heating On when Home
description: ""
trigger:
- platform: state
entity_id:
- zone.home
for:
hours: 0
minutes: 0
seconds: 30
from: "0"
to: "1"
condition: []
action:
- service: climate.set_preset_mode
target:
entity_id: climate.hall
data:
preset_mode: home
mode: single
It works fine 95% of the time.
Working out the root cause of the failures would be ideal but I was thinking maybe I can workaround the issue by creating a new automation with runs every 5 mins with pseudo code:
IF zone.home > 0 and tado mode = away
SET tado mode = home
ELSE IF zone.home = 0 and tado mode = home
SET tado mode = away
I cant see any way in the UI to run a schedule an automation every 5 minutes, it that possible?
