I have 3 Horstmann HRT4-ZW thermostats in my setup. The devices themselves function fine, but they cause an error (and more annoyingly: an email notification) whenever I change the setpoint from the GUI. The log shows the following:

Code: Select all

On firmware 3.1.4. The thermostat does indeed not support setting modes as far as I know; it's always on, and heating only.

I think you need to force interview. Z-Way reports that modemask = 0, which means data is corrupted or comes from old version.

If that does not help, show us the force interview log

Already tried to re-interview, that didn't help. Log is attached, the device is #36

Hm.. okey. The device does not support ThermostatMode. It does only control it (send commands to other devices). This is a very special case not accounted in our engine.... We need to fix it.

Does the error happen when you try to change the temperature?

Yes, it happens when I change the setpoint through ZWave.
The device does not have a mode, like a regular heating thermostat it is always on.

The implementation of this device is pretty wrong. It is possible to fix it, but requires some hacks. You can stop Z-Way, open <homeID>-DevicesData.xml, find the devices.<deviceID>.commandClasses.64 and remove it completelly (the full tag with it's data content). The load Z-Way back and it should work.

Make sure to do a backup of the file first!

Where does this file live, I can't seem to find it.

Hi everyone,
Not sure this is the right forum to post this note, but it is about central heating actuator, and the Horstmann HRT4-ZW or SecureControl SSRxxx is one of the devices I have considered.
The modulating gas boiler that powers my home central heating is (i) Junkers Cerastar ZWN-18 featuring Bosch Heatronic 3. It is controlled by thermostat (ii) Junkers FR-120. I am trying to integrate the setup in my (iii) z-wave home network. Internet searches have not landed so far to a site that verify all three items: the closest I get is the excellent solution https://carly.be/using-the-nest-thermos ... -boiler-1/ which satisfies the first two items, but not the third one: the actuator substituted for the Junkers FR-120 is a Google Nest thermostat that runs the Opentherm protocol (which requires a "translator" fitted in the Heatronic 3 card inside the boiler), and communicates on the WiFi frequency with the Google Home Assistant.
Using a z-wave-to-Google Home Assistant bridge doesn't seem an elegant solution: has someone developed a solution supporting all three items of my home setup?
Thank you.
