Hello Everyone,
This is my equipment:
- openHAB version: 2.5
- Homematic IP CCU3 (Firmware 3.51.6) and HmIP-WTH-2 (Firmware 2.6.0)
I want to integrate the Vacation function for the HmIP-WTH-2 with a rule and predefined periods for vacation ( 2h, 2d, 2w) and a button in my OH.
So i started to observe the process while normal change from manu mode to vacation mode via CCU3 WebUI and what happend in OH Control Panel.
Also I had discussions on “Openhabforum” to this topic ( see Link: Thread on german Forum
We found out, that the device needs for Start and End a special constructed String in this form “yyyy_MM_dd’ 'HH:mm”. (see Documentation of Homematic Devices)
According to this I coded my rule:
.sitemap
Switch item=VACATIONsetter label="VACATION" icon="climate" mappings=[0="STOP", 1="2h", 2="2T", 3="2W"]
.rules
rule "Heating-Shutdown because of Vacation"
when
Item VACATIONsetter received update
then
if (VACATIONsetter.state == 0) {
logInfo("Debug", "Vacation state has been set OFF")
}
if (VACATIONsetter.state == 1) {
logInfo("Debug", "vacation for 2h")
var int hour = now.getHourOfDay()
val String actuelDayTime1 = now.toString("yyyy_MM_dd' 'HH:mm")
logInfo("Debug", "This Day: " + actuelDayTime1)
val actuelDayTime_modifiedEnd = actuelDayTime1.replace(" " + hour.toString() ," " + (hour + 2).toString())
logInfo("Debug", "Calculated Endtime of Vacation: " + actuelDayTime_modifiedEnd)
//This is the Test, if the Command change works with String and Rule
SHmIPZimmerThermostat_PartyTimeStart.sendCommand("2020_03_26 08:00")
SHmIPZimmerThermostat_PartyTimeEnd.sendCommand("2020_03_26 10:00")
//Also this code alternative doesn't work!
//SHmIPZimmerThermostat_PartyTimeStart.postUpdate("2020_03_26 08:00")
//SHmIPZimmerThermostat_PartyTimeEnd.postUpdate("2020_03_26 10:00")
}
if (VACATIONsetter.state == 2) {
logInfo("Debug", "vacation for 2d")
}
if (VACATIONsetter.state == 3) {
logInfo("Debug", "vacation for 2w")
}
end
The Items SHmIPZimmerThermostat_PartyTimeEnd and SHmIPZimmerThermostat_PartyTimeStart have been created by the homematic binding and these are Strings.
The problem is that the WTH-2 is not stable going into vacation mode with the command via my rule.
While observing it in the CCU3 Web UI I can see that it is not fully changed into vacation. Picture
Did anyone of you use a WTH-2 and had the same issue?
Is there a failure with my constructed String-Command or Rule?
Is there another variable that should be driven, to make this work?
Thank you a lot.
