TRV Controller Discussion Thread

[autolog]

Works mostly fine WAF is nearly 100%

That's good to hear - thanks for trying it out.

Some "old" issue

" TRV Error StandardError detected in TRV Plugin [zwaveCommandReceived]. Line '524' has error=''zwaveWakeupIntervalRemote''
TRV Error StandardError detected in TRV Plugin [deviceUpdated] for device 'Conservatory Temperature 2']. Line '1145' has error=''remoteTempOffset''

TRV Error StandardError detected in TRV Plugin [zwaveCommandReceived]. Line '524' has error=''zwaveWakeupIntervalRemote''"

Looks like related to the external temp sensor used as a temp reading source

I'll take a look at that error. What sort of device/model is it?

EDIT Further Questions:

How have you defined the device in the TRV Controller, as looking at the code I can't immediately see how this can happen (though obviously it has!).

Also, the errors above are from version 1.4.3 not 1.5.0 (although that shouldn't make any difference).

[shapa]

It seems to be it was a mix of a partially upgraded plugin.

Made a clean install.

Now the issue is

" TRV Error StandardError detected in TRV Plugin [deviceStartComm of device 'Conservatory TRV']. Line '3136' has error='list index out of range'"

...

Z-Wave received "Conservatory Temperature 2" sensor update to 29.4 °C

[autolog]

Can you print the device to the log (like you have done previously) and post the results?

[siclark]

I have now posted Version 1.5.0 to Github as a pre-release: TRV Controller V 1.5.0 - Add User Specified Z-Wave Delay Between Status Requests

It actually does work on plugin start / reload.

All seems to work OK as far as my system is concerned.

If you have the delay set to 15 seconds and valve delay set to 5 seconds then to start each TRV will take 20 seconds. If you have 12 TRVs, it is going to take 12 x 20 seconds = ~ 4 minutes to complete and any new changes (e.g. turn on a TRV) will be queued up behind the initial start.

I will do a more general announcement once I am happy it appears to be working OK.

Hi Jon, not sure I entirely understand the second time but used your example times and it is all working, and I seem to have less zwave delays when all are reporting status, but will keep an eye on it over the next few days.

[autolog]

... not sure I entirely understand the second time but used your example times and it is all working, ...

When the the TRV is off and not calling for heat, the plugin only ask the TRV for temperature. In heating mode it asks for Temperature and Valve percentage open state. So the second time is just a mechanism to get the results back quicker as a pair for each TRV if that makes sense?

Hi @shapa,

Am I correct in thinking that you have previously edited the xml file within the plugin?

If so, if you do the following change it might/should fix the TF021 problem.

Do a show Package Contents on the plugin and navigate to folder: Contents > Resources and edit file supportedThermostatModels.xml.
Change line 5 from:

Code: Select all

		<supportsTemperatureReporting>true</supportsTemperatureReporting>

to

Code: Select all

		<supportsTemperatureReporting>false</supportsTemperatureReporting>

i.e. change true to false.

Save the file and then reload the plugin.

I need to think about a more permanent fix as the TF 021 can have external temperature inputs, it's just that you aren't using them.

[shapa]

OK, seem to be working now. The external sensor is a bit more reliable., technically TF021 can provide temp readings

[Busta999]

I had three TRVs go rogue today.

The one in Molly's room very interesting....

Despite the thermostat for the room showing 22.3C the TRV Controller is showing the same Thermostat showing 16.2C for a Setpoint of 17c

Once I sent a direct control to the radiator to set set point to 8C and Valve to 0% then the TRV finally caught up.

Molly's room was 5.3C over temp.

The Thermostat - zwave Secure - was working and reporting temp correctly

The TRV controller was not reading the external thermostat and keeping both heat demand keeping the control heating on.

I will work on a trigger where the actual Thermostat is different from where the TRV Controller is showing a different remote temp and see how often this is occuring.

[Busta999]

Jon

Noticed most TRV's were not reflecting the actual temp of the room from the Remote Sensors which are showing accurate temp.

Forcing TRV Controller PlugIn to restart updated all TRV Controllers with correct remote Temps

I am using v1.51

[Busta999]

Unfortunately in Indigo you cannot do a comparison between devices without learning python,

So I have created a work around to restart the TRV Plugin every 5 minutes - hopefully that will stop this problem for occurring again.

Regards

Hi Jon,

I think there is a bug using a pibeacon one wire sensor as the TRV remote control. That device has Temperature as the state, as well as some max and min values.
The current temp on my pibeacon device is 23.5 but with a max of 28.6.

Screenshot 2020-05-22 at 14.30.26.png (32.48 KiB) Viewed 6177 times

The TRV temp is 24.5 degrees at the moment (they are other sides of the room)

Screenshot 2020-05-22 at 14.31.50.png (166.85 KiB) Viewed 6177 times

However when I set the TRV controller to use the pibeacon as the TRV remove control, the TRV reports the temperature as>28. Except now I repeat for taking screenshots it has done the opposite, and is showing a TRV temperature of 20.3, I have no idea where its getting that from.

Screenshot 2020-05-22 at 14.35.33.png (167.99 KiB) Viewed 6177 times

In this case, the wrong TRV temperature is not a problem, as the used temp of the remote is correct.

However I was seeing the reported temperature of the TRV controller, ie using the TRV remote of 28 degrees which is clearly wrong.

UPDATE - turns out the temperature of the TRV really did drop 4.2 degrees inbetween the snapshots as the window was opened.
I cant get it to replicate the behaviour now but below is my plot of the temperatures.
Orange is the reported TRV controller temp with the pi beacon as TRV remote uo the point it drops from 29 degrees.
Red line is the pibeacon temperature.
At approx 14:18 I stoped it using the TRV remote and it dropped to 20c. When I then put it back to using the TRV remote it reports a temperature almost inline., (exactly after 14:30).

Screenshot 2020-05-22 at 14.45.15.png (76.22 KiB) Viewed 6175 times

I dont have debugging turned on, so not sure there is anything you could get for this without it occuring again, but wondered if you had seen this before?

Cheers

[autolog]

If it happens again, take snapshots of the Spirit, TRV Controller and remote.

28C looks like the max setpoint of the Spirit.

I would be interested to see if the reported temperature from the Spirit TRV is different to what the TRV Controller is reporting for it.

If that was the case, that would likely be a bug.

[siclark]

You can see here it was tracking nicely, for a few days it was closely in line, then started to get what looks to be a time delay.

Screenshot 2020-05-22 at 15.15.52.png (99.67 KiB) Viewed 6171 times

But then last night, it just seems to start a straight line climb.

Screenshot 2020-05-22 at 15.16.04.png (83.13 KiB) Viewed 6171 times

If I see it happen again, will def get more screenshots of the device.

[siclark]

Interestingly you can see is spike at midnight to the correct temperature, then drop straight away again.
