Set temp using NeoHub binding in BasicUI

  • Hardware: raspi4

  • Java Runtime Environment: 11

• Issue of the topic: I can’t set the thermostat temperature using the NeoHub, only graph past temperatures.
• Please post configurations (if applicable):
  • Items configuration related to the issue: NeoHub, NeoStat

Hi, I’ve set up my NeoHub and I can read temperatures from connected NeoStats without difficulty. However, using OpenHab 3 and the built-in GUI config screens, I can’t figure out what settings to use in order to produce controls to actually set the target temperature channel. No matter what I do, I get a graph display of past temps, instead of a control that shows me the current target temp and a way to move it up or down.

I think I have tried most combinations of Point or SetPoint for “semantic class” in the BasicUI editor (doing “Create Equipment from Thing” as suggested in the OH3 tutorial).

Searching on this subject yielded a closed pull request (Fix changing temperature via Basic UI by chris922 · Pull Request #2165 · openhab/openhab-core · GitHub) which seemed to suggest that last summer there was a problem in BasicUI which caused it to not display controls due to some kind of unit / label problem. But that was merged quite a while ago.

At this point, I am not very sure if this is a NeoHub binding problem or a BasicUI problem. Or it could just as easily be a “me” problem if I simply have the equipment configured incorrectly.

“semantic class” in the BasicUI editor

What is that? I think you may be muddled about BasicUI legacy from OH2 (which uses sitemaps and knows nothing about semantics), and MainUI the primary tool for OH3.

I think you just need to change your Item’s default widget to a slider or stepper.

Can't change the heating of thermostats in openHAB 3

Hey, I’m running OH 3.0 and all of my Eurotronic Spirit thermostats running fine. To change the temperature in item/model-view I changed “Default List Item Widget” and “default Standalone Widget” under “Add Metadata” to Slider-widgets with min:8, max:28, step:0.5, Display Label, Display State, Scale steps: 4, Scale sub steps: 1 and Unit °C [image]

Hi @rossko57 you are right. As soon as I posted, I did one more search, and of course it gave the right answer, which was as you say, “change it to a stepper”:

OH3: Set Temperature

I would like to set the temperature of a thermostat. What do I have to do, that automatically in the location overview an input option is displayed? I have already declared the item for temperature setpoint as “Mearusement” “SetPoint”. When I click on the setpoint, I do not expect a diagram, but an input option. Where the NULL is in the screenshot, I would like to see some kind of slider or something similar. @ysc: Do you have any idea? [image]

It’s working very well. Thanks for the tip!
