hvacThermostat thing missing V_STATUS binary switch?

aivarl last edited by

Hi,

I'm using Arduino/MySensors as thermostat and wanted to integrate it with OpenHAB as HVAC sensor type (temperatures, heating modes and status - on/off).

However it seems that OpenHAB binding thing definition for hvacThermostat has only either string or number type channels and missing basic binary switch channel. In MySensors serial protocol S_HVAC has relation to V_STATUS type.

So currently I'm trying to use V_HVAC_FLOW_STATE for indicating heating status but this seems not to work when mapped to Switch item in OpenHAB side:

Switch FF_Bedroom_Heating_State "Bedroom heating state [MAP(on_off_switch_ee.map):%s]" (gHVAC, gFF_BedroomHeatingState, gHistory) {channel="mysensors:hvacThermostat:gateway:ff_bedroom_temp:hvac-flow-state"}
Thing defined as: hvacThermostat ff_bedroom_temp [ nodeId="10", childId="31" ]

From debug output it is seen that MySensors messages are correctly sent and received but no item state is changed in OpenHAB side. I tried to send binary true/false values and also with "ON"/"OFF" strings.

Temperature is received and processed by OpenHAB correctly so thing definition and item definitions is most likely correct.

So my question is, is it possible to add V_STATUS to hvacThermostat definition or do I miss something in my configuration?

wbr,
Aivar

To add another option to this thread. I have not yet used them but I am collecting these. They look like they are made for these types of sensors

Hi @adds666 I did in between the switch from 2.5.12 to 3.4.4 a change from pure textual configuration in 2.5.12 to a UI configuration in 3.4.4. This requires some homework. Can't remember beside the exchanged mysensors binding files anything else to upgrade to 4.0.4 from 3.4.4 and finally to current 4.1.1. Keep in mind, I use a OpenHAB manual installation on a non-Debian Linux system, not openHABian. This may have an influence, but I don't expect any hiccups. kerberos

@chrishiscox said in OH3 Serial Gateway Problem: I tried and tried with my serial gateway, and never got it to function porperly. The serial port was working I could see it and data, but OH3 just refused to recognise the data. After a week, I decided to abandon the serial and flashed a esp8266 attached the nRF to it and bobs my uncle as we say. It goes via MQTT, so takes a little more settting up but works fine. If you want more info I will dig out the pages I used to make it work. Hmmm, the pi OH is running on already has an active MQTT broker. So you got me thinking: Wouldn't it be possible to use the MQTT gateway instead of the serial gateway? It should be able to translate radio messages (Hope RF69 in my case) to mqtt messages which are already recognized by OH. I'll have to find a spare pi and try it.

The 2.5-version of the binding does not work out of the box in OpenHAB 3 for me. 2020-12-22 22:53:34.555 [WARN ] [org.apache.felix.fileinstall ] - Error while starting bundle: file:/usr/share/openhab/addons/org.openhab.binding.mysensors-2.5.0-SNAPSHOT.jar org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Could not resolve module: org.openhab.binding.mysensors [272] Unresolved requirement: Import-Package: org.eclipse.smarthome.config.core at org.eclipse.osgi.container.Module.start(Module.java:444) ~[org.eclipse.osgi-3.12.100.jar:?] at org.eclipse.osgi.internal.framework.EquinoxBundle.start(EquinoxBundle.java:383) ~[org.eclipse.osgi-3.12.100.jar:?] at org.apache.felix.fileinstall.internal.DirectoryWatcher.startBundle(DirectoryWatcher.java:1260) [bundleFile:3.6.4] at org.apache.felix.fileinstall.internal.DirectoryWatcher.startBundles(DirectoryWatcher.java:1233) [bundleFile:3.6.4] at org.apache.felix.fileinstall.internal.DirectoryWatcher.doProcess(DirectoryWatcher.java:520) [bundleFile:3.6.4] at org.apache.felix.fileinstall.internal.DirectoryWatcher.process(DirectoryWatcher.java:365) [bundleFile:3.6.4] at org.apache.felix.fileinstall.internal.DirectoryWatcher.run(DirectoryWatcher.java:316) [bundleFile:3.6.4] I guess it might have something to do with this? https://community.openhab.org/t/guide-binding-development-changes-for-openhab-3-from-2-5-x/104134 Namespace change of openHAB core classes With the migration of Eclipse Smart Home to openHAB the namespace of all classes in openHAB core needed to be changed. This means all imports done by bindings that refer to org.eclipse.smarthome have been changed to org.openhab.core. With your binding code you can simply do a file level replace of this text string in the java source files to migrate the binding. On linux you can use the following commands in you src/main/java directory: find . -name *.java -exec sed -i "s/org.eclipse.smarthome.core/org.openhab.core/g" {} ; find . -name *.java -exec sed -i "s/org.eclipse.smarthome/org.openhab.core/g" {} ;
