Thermostat not found #45

bitmerchandise · 2016-10-12T18:49:58Z

Thank you for all the work, it's improved a lot and ignoring devices is excellent...

I tried the newest version but it doesn't pick up my thermostat.
I don't even see it process it in homebridge-out.log
in vera it is seen as device_type urn:schemas-upnp-org:device:HVAC_ZoneThermostat:1
device_file D_HVAC_ZoneThermostat1.xml

npm list yields

npm list -g homebridge-vera

└── homebridge-vera@0.5.2

Thanks for looking into this

Note: I noticed I was not on the newest version so I updated and still the same results

npm list -g homebridge-vera
versions/node/v6.0.0/lib
└── homebridge-vera@0.5.3

Hi,

Mine (Danfoss) is also missing:
urn:schemas-upnp-org:device:Heater:1
D_Heater1.xml
D_HeaterTempNoOnOff2.json

Im also on 0.5.3

Regards,
Jan

Wow, now it works :-)

In the file functions.js, i just removed:

if(config.includethermostat)

And restarted the homebridge :-)

So something is supposed to be in the config.json

Regards,
Jan

Sorry, what works?
Does homebridge-vera work now or can you see the thermostat now?
I tried commenting if(config.includethermostat) (commented the IF and the matching brace).
Still doesn't see the thermostat.
Is there something else that you did?
I didn't reset homekit, I am not at home at the moment. Did you reset homekit?

Thanks

        //        if(config.includethermostat){
                    var Thermostat            = require("./types/thermostat.js")(HAPnode,config,module);
                    HAPnode.debug('------ Thermostat Added: %s', device.name + ' ID:' +device.id);
                    accessories.push(Thermostat.newDevice(device, verainfo.temperature));
        //        };
                break;

Just remove if(config.includethermostat)

bitmerchandise · 2016-10-21T18:51:00Z

Nope, didn't work for me. I even renamed my Thermostat from thermostat to honeywell thinking that the name might be a problem but still doesn't work. Thanks for the helping hand though.
Will try deleting homekit and adding accessories again

bitmerchandise · 2016-10-21T23:17:28Z

Still doesn't work even after deletion of persist and starting over with homekit.

I see the device here

{ "name": "Honeywell", "altid": "11", "id": 67, "category": 5, "subcategory": 1, "room": 10, "parent": 1, "fanmode": "Auto", "mode": "HeatOn"

when i go to

http://IP:3480/data_request?id=lu_sdata

Category is also seen

{ "name": "Thermostat", "id": 5 },

Any suggestions?

you shouldn't remove the "if", just add "includethermostat: true" to your config file and it should pickup the thermostat. If it doesn't work run it in debug mode and post the output so we can see what is going on.

bitmerchandise · 2016-11-02T23:53:02Z

my error was "includethermostat": true and not what you sent me "includethermostat: true" plus I had an ignore for a scene that had same ID as thermostat, so I recreated the scene. thanks working now

Thanks to @damianxd now I can use siri to work with vera.
Now I want to add more to control.
Like window covering and thermostat.
I tried @bitmerchandise 's way, add "includethermostat: true" to my config file.
My thermostat showed in homebridge initiating list, but not in apple app "Home" list.

How to proceed?
And how to run window covering nodes?

jacobleilei · 2016-12-07T02:57:51Z

@bitmerchandise After I reboot the bridge, it now works. I can control thermostat now.

reallybman · 2016-12-21T23:46:13Z

@bitmerchandise @jacobleilei can you advise on where to find this file that you are editing the thermostat IF statement?

bitmerchandise · 2016-12-21T23:58:40Z

mine is located in /usr/local/lib/node_modules/homebridge-vera
The actual files are in /usr/local/lib/node_modules/homebridge-vera/lib/types

Good luck

bitmerchandise · 2016-12-22T00:02:48Z

This is what worked for me though "includethermostat: true"
I only attempted to edit the files once I saw someone else was successful by doing that.
If you already did that, then check if your thermostat ID is not excluded in your config.json or check that it doesn't have a duplicate ID as a scene... That has happened to me also. For some reason, scenes sometimes can have same ID as a device
