All,

Due to changes in the push notification system by Apple, the plugin to send push notifications to HomeWave will have to be updated. Please use the link below. This plugin works on both Vera and OpenLuup platforms.

Push messages will continue to work with the old and the new plugin. Once the server and the HomeWave app are updated, the old plugin will stop working

It's a bit of an issue. You can of course do this programatically if you have temperature sensors in all the rooms. But you'd have to drive the Horstmann relay programatically, which isn't ideal. The thermostat has some clever logic to drive your boiler in an optimal way (I think you can even set the boiler type in the Horstmann).

What I did: I put thermostats in the rooms that I want to have good temperature control in (3 rooms). The relay units near the boiler are simply wired in parallel: this defeats the cleverness of the boiler control... but only when more than one thermostat demands heat while being near its setpoint. The TRVs in those rooms are programmatically slaved to the thermostat: every so often the home controller reads the setpoint and updates the TRVs.

The TRVs in the other rooms are usually set to 14 degrees. At the moment I have them set so they go to 20 degrees when I turn the lights on in that room, and I close one of the boiler relays for 5 minutes to draw heat into the radiator. These are small rooms and this works well enough.

By the way, I'm getting some serious savings by not heating the rooms that are not in use during the day.

@rafale77 I have tried before to change the device type manually and that didn't work for some reason. But after loading your new lua file and recreating the devices, this now works correctly, from the mobile app to Openluup to ZWay to the thermostat, and all the way back. The operating mode (off / heat) is also transmitted correctly.

Thanks!

@perh So would I I've made a major (and very expensive) effort a few years ago using Xamarin, but the Android part never worked very well, it took ages to start up and just parsing JSON files required whole seconds. I'm hoping to revisit this at some point since they have made huge improvements to Xamarin since then, but don't hold your breath; it's a huge effort.

It's in the app store now Please let me know if it installs correctly
