hello,

i found the problem, the thermostat was off, i didn‘t understand the meaning of switching thermostat on or off, now it‘s a little bit clearer.

thanks

Hi @balmli, I have a shelly 1, I can’t see the temperature in Vthermo, the sensor is in the same area, but I can’t see the temperature, what am I doing wrong?

Have you read the instructions a bit further up here?

46

Yes, I have the following configuration, but I do not have any sensor that is measuring that temperature

If you read you see that the Shelly is a heater, not a sensor or thermostat. So check the «Other devices» in the «Temperature sensors in the same zone».

48

I had already tried that option, but as you will see in the attached image, it takes the value of another device and I don’t know how to make it take the device I want (it must be taken into account that in the same area I have several shelly devices) and apparently they all have heater capacity, can I do anything else? I have also seen that homey has updated Vthermo to version 1.6, can you inform what is new in this version?

thanks

Hello,

i made this flow to update the temperature value from the shelly temperatur sensor to the virtual vThermo thermostat, but it doesn’t work, any suggestions?

Thanks

Hello!!!

First of all, I wanted to thank the application and the effort to create it.

I have recently installed the app together with Netatmo valves, but I don’t know if these valves can be thermostat actuated.

I have configured several flows and when I do the test it changes the temperatures in the valve, but if I set it to automatic it does not change the temperature.

I am attaching a flow that I have created to see if it is correct.

Thanks to all for the help.!

The Fibaro FGT-001 is a thermostat itself. So what do you want to do ?

58

I have a Heatit Z-DIN for zone control, and I want the thermostat to control the relay. It’s work with z-temp2 and vthermo.

Hello! Was wondering if someone could let me know if the following is possible with VThermo?

I have a Mill heater that refuses to stay connected to my WiFi rendering it essentially worthless connectivity-wise with Homey. Have tried everything and have given up on it ever working so am considering the following work around:

Plug the Mill heater into an IKEA smart outlet and place a Aqara temp sensor in the same room. What I’d like to know is if it’s possible for VThermo to control the IKEA outlet on/off depending on the temperature reading from the Aqara? I tried looking i to advanced settings but couldn’t figure it out. Any help is super appreciated!

Hi Mike,

Yes, that’s the normal use case for VThermo: Controlling wall plugs based on temperature sensors in the same zone.

You have to:

  • set the IKEA outlet as a “heater” in settings for that device
  • add a VThermo, and set it’s target temperature
61

thanks. this is great news! so the VThermo then understands that the IKEA outlet is hooked up to a heater and then just takes care of things automatically? What an awesome app!

It is possible to then combine this with Homey Heating Scheduler that I have running with my other functioning Mill heaters?

The IKEA plug must be configured as a “heater” for VThermo to control it.

And yes, the VThermo can be controlled as other thermostats.
