Hi, Now I have some more installed I am setting up more Schedules, and the associated action groups in Indigo. It appears the plugin sees the schedule names broadcast in Settings and displays them after they have been updated on the Shelly device. But a short while later (possibly somewhere between 3-10 minutes) it seems to forget them, despite them still showing in the most recent Settings message in MQTT explorer.
Any ideas what might cause this?
So you are saying the "Set TRV Schedule Profile" action UI correctly displays and lets you pick the schedules defined on the TRV. But then, some minutes later, the action UI no longer populates the list of schedule names?
I think I had found the Shelly documentation was simply incorrect for this device, so can you capture some MQTT logs using MQTT explorer, or using any other tool? I need to see the topic and message content to confirm my suspicion.
There are multiple topics that publish "info" and "settings" about the thermostat. One appears to include schedule information while the other does not. I have the indigo device subscribed to both, and when the schedule names are not found in a message it is resetting the internal list. I'll have to think through how to handle that case - I want it to be possible for the device to clear schedule names or rename them. Having a log of topics and the content will help massively to confirm what exactly is going on.
