I’ve configured my Max thermostats and shutter contacts on openhab and everything works (nearly) fine so far.
The problem I have is, that the current (actual_temp) and the wanted temperature (set_temp) are
not refreshed on the sitemap.
So when I change the temp on the thermostat the new temp is not displayed on the sitemap.
When I change the temp on the sitemap the new temp is displayed also on the thermostat?
I’ve read about some workarounds (rules) to change the temperature to trigger a refresh of the
currents temp.
But there must be a better approach to solve this. Does anybody know a solution for this?
This is indeed a ‘feature’ of the max thermostats.There is no real ‘solution’ here as the max thermostats just don’t transmit this info to the Cube. Unless you can develop a firmware that changes this behavior and find a way to flash this onto the them there is no real fix.
The max binding has a setting to ‘refresh’ the actual temperature (marked as experimental) that changes the temperature and changes it back after a few minutes, in the hope to trigger a in actual temp refresh by the thermostat.
Note: set temp changes are mostly communicated pretty fast to openhab… (fast in the sense of <60 seconds is my experience) unless you did lot of changes and exceeded the duty cycle.
