lost connection after 20 min. when Thermostat included

[benbeton]

Hi,
recently I added "Danfoss Thermostats" to z-wave. After adding, they are working fine. But after about 20 minutes I have to no connection to homebridge anymore.
Only if I change name and ID in the confighomebridge is accessable for a few minutes.

When using "opt_in" and tagging all but the thermostats with "Homebridge.Include" homebrdige is working fine.
tagging the thermostats with "Homebridge.Skip" does not work. (the are still included )

what logs or data can I provide to get closer to the problem?

regards

Hello,

These are the Danfoss "Living Connect" thermostats that attach to a radiator valve, correct? I have some of these myself, so that's good. But they're behaving fine for me...however I have not upgraded my Z-Way server (on RaZBerry) to 2.2 yet--I am guessing you may be having trouble with them because of a change in 2.2, is that the version of Z-Way you are running?

The problem with Skip has just been resolved (I think) in release 0.3.3 of homebridge-zway, just a few days ago. Can you do a npm list -g homebridge-zway and see if you're on 0.3.3, and if not, do npm upgrade -g homebridge-zway?

Next, can you do the following:

Run homebridge with debugging turned on: DEBUG=* homebridge and attach the output here.

Login to the Z-Way standard UI, and then hit http://your.pi.i.p:8083/ZAutomation/api/v1/devices (replacing your.pi.i.p with your Z-Way server's IP address of course), and attach or post the contents here.

Also, hit the /accessories endpoint of your homebridge server (probably http://your.homebridge.i.p:51826/accessories) and attach the contents of that here. If you can do that twice, once before you get disconnected, and then again shortly after, that would probably be helpful too.

Hi,

yes, these are the Danfoss "Living Connect" thermostats.
I'm running Z-Way 2.2 on a RaZberry.

At first I will upgrade to version 0.3.3 (still running 0.3.2) and do some more testing (tags and if the error still exist)
If yes, I'll provide the needed logs this evening or tomorrow.

thank you for you help!

[Update]

after updating to v. 0.3.3 it seems that the problem ist gone. I'll do some more testing the next days and will close the issue if it does not appear again.

my zwave api output (http://pastebin.com/9LW0QUxk)

homebridge debug log: (http://pastebin.com/pUPDTFzs)

I've checked the logs but I do not see any errors there, maybe you can

btw.: Homebridge.Skip seems not to work with z-wave 2.2.0

Okay looking into it. Curious...have you also added the ThinkingCleaner plugin just recently?

[benbeton]

I haven't added it recently, but could be possible that the last update changed something. It seams to be related to the "ThinkingCleaner plugin" I disabled it and the thermostats are working when included. no issue anymore.

Don't know why I thought it was related to the thermostats, maybe I didn't wait long enough during the tests. I did a lot of testing today with more wait time, seems to work without the ThinkingCleaner plugin.

Thank you for your help and for developing this plugin!

Ah, thanks. I noticed something in the Roomba device that might be causing a problem, so that's why I asked. If you contact the developer of that plugin, I think the problem is that he's sometimes returning a string "0" instead of a numeric 0 or false when it's "off", it's this segment:
