Climate Schedule - AC Off?

[StoreyWho 3]

Hoping I'm just missing something.

 

I have AC schedules setup for several zones. What I can't see how to do is turn AC off for a time period. For example:

 

Living Room, off overnight.

Bedroom, off during day.

 

Setting the temperature high, 30c for example, leaves the AC powered on. I want off off.

 

If I'm not missing the obvious, what would be the best way to code the off/on? I've got as far as turning off the AC thermostat when the setpoint is 30c. This however appears to stop the next setpoint being set for the next period, so I can't switch on when it's changed from 30.

 

Any suggestions?

I guess you could do it with a block scene? 🤔

 

If i understand you right

Yes that would work but I'm trying to avoid having a schedule in two places for each zone.

 

Your suggestion would require two scenes per zone (off and on) and adjusting the scene time should a zone schedule change.

[Brors94 34]

You actually only need 1 scene each  After 8 hours or what you set, it will go back to schedule  
 

But I understand what you mean. Should have been possible to set the schedule of the device to off insted of 4°C as is the lowest or 30°C to high. 
I guess the fan will still run? and thats why you want it Off Off?

 

 

What if you do somthing like this?

when the setpoint of the fan thermostat is above 29, it set the mode to off?

and when it is under <29 and above >10 it will set to hear/cool/auto? 🤔

I thought I was the only one thinking this would make some sense. Yeah, you should be able to turn it off during the time schedule periods.

As I mentioned in the original post, off at 30 I have working. However, the next setpoint isn't set while the device is off, so switch on isn't triggered. When I switch the device on manually, it is still set to 30.

 

Absent any other suggestions, I might try using the time of the next setpoint to schedule turning the device back on (minus a minute).

Are you familiar with lua? 

if so, I see you can get the schedule times from and api call like this:

 

local climate_ID = 3

schedule_time = api.get("/panels/climate/"..climate_ID.."")

print("2",json.encode(schedule_time.properties.monday.morning))

Response:

{"temperatureCooling":29.0,"temperatureHeating":22.5,"hour":6,"minute":0}

Here is my schedule 6 in the monday morning 

I guess it could be used in a QA with eventrunner 5 or Eventlib from jgab to act on that time 😄

So if you change the schedule it is also updated in the QA

It was ER5 that finally got me started with coding automations in Fibaro, rather than relying on a mess of block scenes and blocks converted to Lua to hack at 🙂

 

Had a poke around in swagger yesterday and yes, thought the API would be the route to try. On the Todo list!
