mco home mh8 and hc3


marbellait

Question

i have been using my hc2 with a mc home mh8 thermostat without problems for a long time. i migrated a couple of days ago from my fantastic hc2 to the new hc3. hasnt been a smooth transition, but i finished 99% of the work

i updated my hc3 to firmware 5.030 because tech support told me that these fix would be included in these version. not true... hc3 recognizes the mh8, but nothing is working. the diagnostic tools shows these device has no template.

with the hc2 i was able to turn it on/off, swap from cold to heat and manage the fan speed. with HC3 none of these options are working. i wrote some LUA code to turn on/off the AC but it didnt work.. any ideas?

that's fine, i have access (HC2) to these two hardware versions and can/would check if you add xml to e.g. next beta.

 

i mean beta HC2, not Alpha HC3 :)

Please generate there xml templates, those from HC3 are different :)

 

These XML attached above are all generated on HC2 v4.580

Hi everyone.

I'm trying to create LUA code for VD to contol MCO HOME MH8 - fan speed.

In previous HC2 there was a hint after right click with list of possible action for device.

In HC3 ther's no such hint anymore. 

Futhrermore commands have changed, in example in HC2 there was fibaro:getValue(2113, "mode"), now it's fibaro.getValue(2174, "thermostatFanMode").

I assume the same is for setting values, but I can't figgure what is new command to change fan mode.

Any clue?

Hello, I had the same problem. Fan speed can not be controlled by scenes only manually. I wrote scenes in LUA, the code must be without true parameter just delete it. The code looks like this 

 

hub.call(191, 'setThermostatFanMode', "High")

Please open json table of the device and verify which commands are available.

http:// [HC-IPaddress] /api/devices/191

at the end you should see actions table. Something like that:

"actions": {

"reconfigure": 0,

"toggle": 0,

"turnOff": 0,

"turnOn": 0

}

 

The table shows available commands for the device, but not theirs values. The value you can see in the same json table under properties:.... value:
