HC3 outside temperature

[Fireman 7]

Hello,

 

Did someone know if its possible to get outside temperature in garden (Tuin) room?   I have installed YR weather.

 

Can i do it with a scene or is it not possible?

 

Thanks.

this should work in a Lua script:

 

 local temperature = fibaro.getValue(411,"Temperature") -- 411 should be device ID of weather provider 

 fibaro.debug("temperature: ",temperature)

Hello Eddy,

 

Thanks for reaction.

I'm new with Fibaro/Lua.  Can you help me further?  

What's the trigger and action?

 

Or is it's easier to make a QA?

 

Thanks.

[SmartHomeEddy 878]

@Fireman What do you want to do with the temperature?

Hello Eddy,

 

Nothing special at the moment. It's useful to see the outside temperature in the fibaro app.

 

Thanks.

[SmartHomeEddy 878]

To see it in the Fibaro dashboard and Mobile app, a QuickApp is probably the best solution. The quickest solution is to install the Openwheather app 

 

Please login or register to see this link.

 

It already has child devices for temperature, humidity, etcetera

Hello Eddy,

 

I have download openwheather app.

 

I make an account on openweather mapp and get an API.

 

I change variables (see attach).  When is start QA stays in please wait......

 

When i copy APIKEY in internet browser i get temp,hum etc.

 

What i'am doing wrong? 

 

Thanks.

The API key is only the part after appid= and ending at the &

 

In other words, your api key starts with the 8 and ends with the 9

also you may simple send weather forecast from this device:

Hello 10der,

 

Thanks for reaction. 

 

I try to get working with Eddy's app.

[SmartHomeEddy 878]

In editing your room “Tuin”, you can assign a temperature (and humidity) sensor to your room.

 

Please login or register to see this attachment.

 

Select menu item 4

Tap the room once

Tap on  . . . 
Select edit

Hallo Eddy,

 

I did it also by other rooms with real temperature devices. And works fine.

 

But in "Tuin" there is nothing to select. Only QA ID458 Temp outside.  And there is no value(temperatur) from openweather QA.

 

 

And i can't select temp ID440. Perhaps it is a multilevel sensor?

Oh oh, it is not a temperature sensor. Why?

 

Yes, you can only select a temperture (and humidity) sensor. 

[Fireman 7]

 

Oh oh, it is not a temperature sensor. Why? --> i don't know.  The weather app configure all "devices" as multilevel sensor.

 

Yes, you can only select a temperture (and humidity) sensor. 

 

 

Can you get value from multilevel sensor in temperture sensor by lua or something else?  

 

Thanks.

    self:updateProperty("Temperature", temperature)

    self:updateProperty("Humidity", humidity)

    self:updateProperty("Wind", wind)

Sorry i'am rookie with Fibaro HC3/ Lua.

 

Where should i type commands.

 

Thanks.

[SmartHomeEddy 878]

@10der Fireman wants the temperature value in the room “Tuin”

 

So he needs a QuickApp with type com.fibaro.temperatureSensor, not the com.fibaro.multilevelSensor

[SmartHomeEddy 878]

@Fireman You could edit the code in OpenWeather widget

Change multilevel to temperature, delete the wrong temperature quickapp and a new one is created and will be ok

You could ask the author of the QuickApp to change the type of the Temperature Child device. 

 

I left a issue on GitHub, but no reactie up til now. I don't know if the author is on this forum. You could react on the Marketplace. 

[10der 831]

@SmartHomeEddy if devuce is multilevelSensor

so  local temperature = fibaro.getValue(411,"value") -

will works

[SmartHomeEddy 878]

He wants to select the device in a room, as main temperature sensor of that room.
