Holiday mode on HCL

[HomeSystem.sk 69]

Hey guys,

sorry but Fibaro support is not helping so maybe you can.

I need to create VD for HCL which will set the heating panel to holiday mode. I found the script for LUA and tried to get the info out, but no success. I think this works for LUA.

Please login or register to see this code.

But how do I do it in HCL? How do I trigger jsonTable in HCL? Is that possible at all? I dont need anything fancy, just a way to turn the holiday mode on and off via phone.

Thanks

create VD with 2 buttons.

 

button 1: Normal mode (= heating panel scheme is active)

"id" = id of the heating panel you want to control

"name" = name of the heating panel you want to control

 

YWRtaXXXXXXXXXXXXX has to be replaced with the Base64 decodation of your user and pwd. See below.

button 2: Vacation mode (= heating panel holiday mode is active)

"id" = id of the heating panel you want to control

 

"name" = name of the heating panel you want to control

"vacationTemperature" = temperature you want when HCL heating panel is in holiday mode

 

YWRtaXXXXXXXXXXXXX has to be replaced with the Base64 decodation of your user and pwd. See below.

1. remplace <space> with a space
2. remplace <command> with the PUT command you need to control the HCL. In your case "/api/panels/heating"
3. remplace <user:pwd inBase64> To calculate Base64 use

Thanks a lot Patrick, you are the best. It works like a charm.

 

Now I see how you did it, so the basic is the last thing you stated and then from the json table you take vacationTemperature = 15 and you change the form of it to "vacationTemperature":10 plus you define the id of device. Great, really thanks.

 

Just for the people who will be looking at this, for the VD the IP is 127.0.0.1 and TCP 11111

I hope thats universal

I have one more question here -

is it possible in HCL to get info about holiday mode to the application?

So basically to see in the app, if holiday mode is on or off?

 

Thanks for help

Hi Guys

Are there some that can help with the above VD.
I have a VD to Reboot, which works perfectly.
And a VD to modify global variables that will work perfectly.
But I can not change the heating panel with VD, simply can not get it to work, have tried at least 10 times, with Patrik's recipe.

Thanks in advance.

It works now.
Thanks for sharing, Patrick

yes,

do not use the VD to manage the holiday mode but instead use a scene.

The scene will start the VD (so same action as clicking VD) but also write on the VD the status of the label "Holyday" by setting it to ON or OFF.

From the app you can read the VD label and understand how the HCL is currently set.
