In my MelCloud Home binding it doesn’t matter how high I set the pollingIntervall in the code - it still goes offline at random times every 2-3 days for about half an hour. I have tried 600 and recently even 1200 as pollingIntervall. This causes a problem for me as I have a rule to start the heat pump at 22:00 and shut it off at 7:00. If the heatpump is offline at the trigger moment the command never reaches the heatpump.

Has anyone a suggestion on how to fix the going offline problem or a solution to handle the situation if the heatpump is offline at the rule triggering time.
