Stopping Hostmann HRT4-ZW wall thermostat from changing state of virtual thermostat

stefan koster shared this idea ago

Completed

Hello, all

I made a virtual thermostat with a the horstmann HRT4 as input device to set the temperature.

That is al working fine.

The problem is that the HRT also gives a Mode change to the virtual thermostat. It turns the virtual thermostat from heating to off if the internal thermostat of the HRT4 drops below the set temperature of the HRT4. I don't want that to happen, because i want to control the set temp. from a rule and smartphone without the need of setting the thermostat to heat mode.

Hope you can help me,

Stefan

In device manager setting the virtual thermostat_heating_level state to master and hard reseting the box didn't help

Well, in the case you only want to use the thermostat as temperature measure, remove it from input and add it as temperature device. Also, don't forget to add it as output thermostat so it received virtual thermostat setpoint

It must be used as output device in order to receive changes in the virtual thermostat program. If u use it as all 3 devices (input, output and temperature, it should work as needed.

I have set it as input output and temp., it used to work. But i just resently rebuild my total nework, deleted andere resetted al devices, factory reset on the zipabox and all.

The problem started after a rebuild of the network.

Problem is even worse as the virtual thermostat send a set command of 4 degrees to the danfoss valve in the room after the wall thermostat give a stop command to the zipabox.
