I'm wanting to determine when the setpoint has been changed manually at the thermostat, by comparing it with what Indigo set it to, and it's not as easy as I though it would be.
If you execute the following AppleScript, it will cause Indigo to poll the thermostat:
- Code: Select all
device status "Thermostat Name"
You can then (after a couple of seconds to allow the polling to finish) query the thermostat for setpoints, etc.
