Wink issues on 0.72

Configuration
1

Since my update to 0.72 my automation to turn off my fans after I leave is no longer working. The issue seems to be with my Quirky PPVG-WH01 Pivot Power Genius which is connected to my Wink 2 hub and the log shows an the following errors:

2018-06-24 11:11:20 INFO (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.automation] Executing No one home -> fans off

Anyone have an idea how to fix this?

Thanks

The pivot power genius isn’t connected to a hub it connects directly to Winks API via WiFi (no hub required) the error you are seeing are normal it’s a result of the pivot power genius being a legacy Wink device.

So, if you are having an issue with an automation I suspect the automation isn’t working correctly.

You are correct, the issue was not connected to the Quirky Pivot at all, but to:

Update python-wink to 1.8.0 (@vickyg3 - #14894) (wink docs)

which included:

This pulls in a patch [1] to expose the GE Z-Wave in wall fan switch
as a fan component instead of a light dimmer switch component.

[1] python-wink/python-wink#105

which I had as well and changed name, type and required turn on/off command :frowning:

Thanks for your help

Ahhh yeah I forgot that got added. Hopefully it’s for the better? I assume it shows up as a fan correctly now?

Yes, it shows up as a fan and after I overcame the shock of a fan actually being a fan and not a light or switch everything works again :wink:

Haven’t tried to control the speeds yet, I leave that for next weekend

I’m using 0.74.1 and I just added a fan to my wink, and it only appears as a binary sensor… Anyone else?
