set termostat value in module

[kgm]

I'm trying to write module that scheldue thermostat, but it doesnt work

In index.js I have
var aDev = this.controller.devices.get(this.config.thermostat);
aDev.instances[0].ThermostatSetPoint.Set(1,6);

I also tried
this.controller.devices[9].instances[0].ThermostatSetPoint.Set(1,6);

What am I doing wrong? How set temperature in script?

You're mixing two different API levels.

Accessing devices[x].instances[y].ThermostatSetPoint is applicable only to Z-Wave binding, which is exported into global object zway. Note that global zway object may change or disappear, so your module should be ready to handle that.

If you're going with this.controller.devices, it returns virtual device that can be operated with metrics. This is a higher level of abstraction.

Note that global zway object may change or disappear

Does this mean that I can throw away the whole 1.7 Z-Way developers manual ?

No, why? I mean it may be re-created/removed in 2.0 when you reconfigure/disable Z-Wave Binding module, so you should design your modules having that in mind and don't keep global references to the objects that may become invalid.

OK thanks, now (I think) I understand the context.

Thank for reply. Now I have in script

Code: Select all

var aDev = self.controller.devices.get(self.config.thermostat);
aDev.performCommand("exact", { level : 16 });

but it still doesn't work
in log file:
ZWayVDev_8:0:Thermostat:T performCommand processing: {"0":"exact","1":{"level":16}}
but nothing happens, temperature setpoint remains unchanged.

It seems that metrics doesn't work with object thermostat neither on v1.7.2 nor 2.0.0rc17.
There is also some problem with widget, witch doesn't display at all.

This worked for me. Maybe someone find it usefull

Code: Select all

 
var setTemp = parseInt ( self.config.temperature,10);
zway.devices[9].instancds[0].ThermostatSetPoint.Set(1,setTemp) ;

Hi Guys,

I can control my lights using http request very well. I am searching the http request to setup temperature. Can somebody show me an url example to be able to setup the temperature for my Danfoss Thermostat?

Thanks

I used
http://192.168.178.46:8083/ZWaveAPI/Run ... .Set(1,23)
-> 23Grad
http://192.168.178.46:8083/ZWaveAPI/Run ... et(1,10.5)
-> 10.5Grad
for my Danfoss Thermostat (Id 4).
