Honeywell EvoHome adapter for ioBroker

Provide an adaptor which can connect to the Honeywell EvoHome cloud, using the emea API, so might not work in the US.

The package also includes the free version of the Fontawesome symbol font. See license.

Instance settings

Setting Description
username Your TCC username
password Your TCC Password
simpleTree If set, don't include a node for gateway-controlSystem. Use this mode if you have only one system, or all your zone names are unique. See below.

The simpleTree setting.

The data received from the cloud has a data structure like:

Location/Gateway/ControlSystem/Zone

Unfortunately, niether the Gateway nor ControlSystem parts have a descriptive name, and just have a numeric id.

If you have simpleTree == true, the adaptor will omit the Gateway/ControlSystem part, and create objects like:

location-name/Zone-name

e.g. Home/Kitchen

If you have simpleTree == false, the adaptor will include the Gateway/ControlSystem part, and create objects like:

location_name/gateway_id-controlsystem_id/Zone-name

e.g. Home/12345-6789/Kitchen

This is not very pretty, so if you have a single Evohome system, you should probably check the box.

Signals

Instance Signals

Signal RW Type Description
error R Bool Comms error flag
errmsg R String Comms error

Control System Signals

Signal RW Type Description
status R JSON System status as JSON object
cmd RW JSON System command point - write a JSON string here (see below)

System Command Examples

System Mode Change

{
    "command": "setmode",
    "mode": "Auto",
    "until": "2019-04-13T12:34:00Z"
}

Where:

  • mode may be one of Auto, AutoWithReset, Custom, AutoWithEco, Away, DayOff or HeatingOff.
  • until sets duration for a temporary setting. It may be omitted.

Heating Zone Signals

Signal RW Type Description
faults R String Zone faults as string
isAvailable R Bool Zone is available (I assume this means comms with controller is ok... )
schedule R JSON Zone schedule as JSON
setpoint R Number Current setpoint
force_setpoint RW Number Set to force setpoint override*
setpointMode R String Current Mode
temperature R Number Current Measured Temperature
zone R JSON Combined zone status & schedule
zone_cmd RW JSON Zone command point - write a JSON string here (see below)

Force Setpoint

A quick way to override a zone. Setting a non-zero number will cause a permanent override to be applied; setting a zero or other "falsey" value will cause any override to be cancelled.

Zone Command examples

Override Temperature

{
    "command": "Override",
    "setpoint": 21.5,
    "until": "2019-04-13T12:34:00Z"
}

Where:

  • until sets duration for a temporary setting. It may be omitted.

Cancel Override

{
    "command":"CancelOverride"
}

Set Schehdule

{
    "command": "SetSchedule",
    "schedule": (schedule)
}

Where:

  • (schedule) is a a zone schedule object as found in the .schedule point. The format of this is set by Honeywell.

Widgets

System Widget

  • Bind to the control system Status point
  • The "cogwheel" ⚙ opens a settings dialog which allows the system mode to be changed.
  • The background colour will change depending on the system state - at present, these are hard-coded:
    • Red - There are system or zone faults
    • Yellow - A zone is overridden
    • Green - A zone is in Eco mode or system is in Away mode
    • Grey - Normal operation
    • Blue - Heating is Off
    • Purple - DayOff or Custom Mode
  • Errors will cause a warning icon to show: ⚠ - This will open a dialog giving more detail.

Zone Widget

  • Bind to the Zone zone point
  • The "cogwheel" ⚙ opens a settings dialog which allows the zone setpoint and schedule to be changed.
  • Errors will cause a warning icon to show: ⚠ - This will open a dialog giving more detail.
  • Colors vary to represent the zone state:
    • The centre represents the actual temperature
    • The edge represents the current setpoint
    • See below for more on colours.
    • If offSp is set, setpoints below this value will be suppressed for two-colour blends, and only the mv will be used.
  • The setpoint and current temperature formatting can be overridden by use of the spFormat and mvFormat attributes. The sprintf-js module is used to provide formatting. e.g. "%.1f"
  • Likewise, modeFormat allows formatting of the mode string.
  • The widget title is usually extracted from the object id - it can be overridden by the titleText attribute.
  • A footer text can be added by setting the footer attribute

You can use the various text and and formatting overrides to embed additional HTML code within the widget body - useful if you want to add links to other pages, etc.

Colour Generation - colours and interpolate

Colours are generated from a list of switch points and colour codes, e.g.

    $indoor: [
    	{ t:15, b: 0x1E90FF, f:0x0000 },
    	{ t:18, b: 0x0bb000, f:0x0000 },
    	{ t:21, b: 0xdddd00, f:0x0000 },
    	{ t:24, b: 0xff0000, f:0x0000 }
    ],    

    $outdoor: [
    	{ t:8,  b: 0x1E90FF, f:0x0000 },
    	{ t:12, b: 0x00bb00, f:0x0000 },
    	{ t:18, b: 0xdddd00, f:0x0000 },
    	{ t:22, b: 0xff0000, f:0x0000 }
    ],    

Where t = temperature, b = background colour and f = foreground colour. The colours MUST be numeric codes. (You can't use colour names like "green" for instance.)

  • The colours can be configured using the colours attribute. You can set $indoor (the default) $outdoor or a custom vector as described below .
  • Setting the interpolate attribute means the widget will try to work out intermediate colours if the temperature lies between two values.
  • The default is $indoor

Custom Colour Vector

10 blue
15 green
30 red white

If the colours attribute does not start with $, then it is assumed to be a list of switchpoints and associated colour(s), one per line, with each line having the format:

<SwitchValue> <Background> [<Foreground>]
  • The switch value should be a number - rows should be in ascending order
  • The colours may be:
    • A HTML colour name
    • A 6 digit hex colour code e.g. #ff55ff
  • The default foreground is black

Todo

  • Internationalisation
  • Hot Water support - can't do this as I have no hardware -T
  • Other EvoHome devices - can't do this as I have no hardware -T
