Issues

Anyone experiencing "weird" behaviour with the NEST Thermostat?
In the past few weeks I've had periodic issues with the device getting updates from NEST
Also have had two instances of the device deleting itself / renaming itself - bit of a PITA as the control page and action groups also disappeared

I've reinstalled the plugin from scratch but still have the issues

Hello,
I've been having these same issues as well - did you manage to get yours resolved?
My Nest has deleted its self twice now, taking with it all the control page and schedule details. I've been trying this morning to get it working again and its doing some odd things.

The set up of the Nest Plugin all seams ok, it can read information from the Nest like temp, away mode etc. However it cannot change the temperature or settings, i've tried with a schedule in Indigo which sets the heat point, but then it reverts back to the previous setting after 30-60seconds.

I've reset Indigo, deleted the Nest plugin (and all it's other parts in indigo7/plugins and indigo7/preferences, but the problem is still there.

Chameleon are you able to shed any light?

Also worth noting that i've recently upgraded to a 3gen next - but it has been working fine for a couple of weeks since the install. I also upgraded to V2.0.50 at the same time. My previous setup was a Nest 1st Gen (UK) and using a version of the nest plugin from around 2015.

Thanks
Martin

Re: Issues

Hi
From memory (it's a while ago)
I deleted the plugin
Changed the control page images / triggers / etc. to another device to stop them getting deleted in the next step
deleted the device
restarted indigo
installed the plugin
set up new devices (different name from the original)
fixed the actions, control pages etc.

no problems since then
never did work out what caused it

Re: Issues

Hi Mike,
Following my posts last week i thought this issue had gone away, however it's back.
I reset my Nest thermostat and added all the pictures and controls back to the control pages, which worked fine for a couple of days, then yesterday morning it has all disappeared again and the thermostat didn't come on for its timed 5.30am.
I've checked back through the log for yesterday as there is nothing showing for 5.30am, but i did find the section below in todays 5.30am log.


2017-08-25 05:30:38.911 Error device "Hallway Thermostat" state key humidityInput1 not defined (ignoring update request)
2017-08-25 05:30:38.913 Error device "Hallway Thermostat" state key humidityInputsAll not defined (ignoring update request)
2017-08-25 05:30:38.914 Error device "Hallway Thermostat" state key humidityInput1 not defined (ignoring update request)

Any ideas??

Cheers
Martin
