Move heating device to another room with a click


Question

Posted

Hi All, 

 

I just have a bunch of fibaro thermostats installed. Working well with the heating panel and everything. 

 

Now the following request comes up:

 

Two of my children live part-time with me and part-time with their mother. So half the time their rooms are unoccupied. 

I could change the schedule of their rooms every other week but that seems a lot of hassle. 

 

So I thought that if I created a room "Away" and create a schedule for that Zone to stay at 16 degrees C all the time, I only would have to figure out how to create a button to change their thermostat to that Away-room when I click on a scene or virtual device. Maybe I can even one day create a schedule for switching their thermostat back and forth. 

 

I have no clue of a better way of doing this, even worse, I don't know how to program this in Lua to switch one device to another room and back with a kind of on/off switch. 

 

Can any of you help me out further here?

 

Regards,

 

Az

    Thanks for your rapid respons. I have downloaded your file and am looking how and where to tweak it. Just to be sure: what are 1103 and 1104 in your case?

     

    Is there a way to query and change the room of a device through lua?

    EDIT: the query part I have found: fibaro:getRoomNameByDeviceID(deviceID)

     

    What should I do to give a command to move the Device to another Room?

    Hi,

    1103 and 1104 is the number of the icon

    If you by select an icon open in new window you will see the iconnumber in the internet expolorer bar.

    Is there a way to query and change the room of a device through lua? Use thermostate number in room?

    Or create VD room occupied/free

    Succes,
