EcoBee reporting decimal temperatures.

Post by stewkenly »

Is there a setting I am missing? Temperatures and set points appear in indigo for instance as 72.7 yet on the EcoBee thermostat as 73. How do I correct this?

Thanks,

The Ecobee display is rounding off. Not sure what there is to fix.

It would be super handy if the plugin had an option to report the same rounded values.

Can't do it. The API doesn't give me that data. I would have to round off the numbers myself, and I'm not sure that would be accurate.

You're using these numbers for a control page? Can't think of why it would matter otherwise. The problem (IMO) is that the control page system doesn't provide any tools for formatting the data you want to display. One way around it would be to create a trigger that fires any time the device state changes, which writes the value to a variable as a string formatted exactly the way you want it. Probably would need a single line of Python code to do that.
