Heatit Z-wave app (v2.7.1)

[Christer]

here is log for removing node 59, which was included before the beta. this lingers now as unknown node. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1vQoE2M9axOSEpfN51cZi2M98M31TwBFT

here is complete log , after trying to include thermostat using new beta app. got error and no evice included. had not reset device before inclusion. devicewas not added in the end, as unknown node or otherwise

zwave log completet

i can confirm firmware version 3.4

Hi How can i link z water and z trm2fx?

[TedTolboom]

@Christer can you contact me on Slack for this topic? Let’s see how to get this solved, without flooding the forum topic.
One of the thing I do notice in the logs is that Node 72 is still included securely; whereas this should be blocked.

Hi How can i link z water and z trm2fx?

Hi @Nerohan_Selvendran, welcome to the community. To add the Z-Water and Z-TRM2fx, please install the BETA version of the Heatit app (2.4.0) and install the devices with Homey at close proximity to the devices (move Homey, not the devices).

[Nerohan_Selvendran]

Hi to use the waterborne heating i ned to link a relay in the trm2fx with z water. Like this in fibaro https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=GwuYtsjG0Kc

[TedTolboom]

@Nerohan_Selvendran let’s create another entry into the FAQ…

@TedTolboom

Create link between the Heatit Z-TRM2fx thermostat and a (Z-Water) relay device:

There are 2 options to link the Heatit Z-TRM2fx to one of the Z-Water relays:

• Using flows, with additional logic, within Homey: the easiest to setup and possible to link to any device (independent of protocol), but will add a minor delay (will not matter in most setups)
• via direct associations between the Heatit Z-TRM2fx and the Z-Water relays: direct communication between the two devices on the same network, without involvement of Homey

How to setup:

Option A. Using flows within Homey

Create the following 2 flows (basic setup):

1. Create the first flow to switch on the relay when the Z-TRM2fx goes into active state
   WHEN… “Thermostat turned on” (Z-TRM2fx thermostat)

THEN… “Turn on” (Z-Water Relay x)

2. Create the second flow to switch off the relay when the Z-TRM2fx goes into idle state
   WHEN… “Thermostat turned off” (Z-TRM2fx thermostat) THEN… “Turn off” (Z-Water Relay x)

By using the logic of Homey’s flows, you can easily expand the flows with adding additional conditions to only turn on the heater when someone is at home.
In that case, you could:

1. Create the first flow to switch on the relay when the Z-TRM2fx goes into active state
   WHEN… “Thermostat turned on” (Z-TRM2fx thermostat)
   AND… “Someone is at home” (invert the “Nobody is at home” of Presence"

THEN… “Turn on” (Z-Water Relay x)
2. Create a third flow:
WHEN… “The first person came home”

AND… “Themostat is on” (Z-TRM2fx thermostat)

THEN… “Turn on” (Z-Water Relay x)

You’re all set. Relay 8 of the Z-Water should now switch on when the Z-TRM2fx thermostat changes to the active state, and switch off when the thermostat goes into idle state.

Notes:

• “Z-Water Relay x” can in this example be any device Homey is able to control: Z-wave / Zigbee / 433Mhz / Wifi
• Adding additional logic is only possible by using Homey’s flows. This is not possible with Direct associations

Option B. Direct association (Z-wave)

Direct associations are commands send from one Z-wave device to another based on predefined Command Classes.

For correct setup:

• both devices need to be in the same Z-wave network (share the same controller) and need to have the same security state (secured / non-secured).
• Considering the S2 security issues with the Z-TRM2fx and the Z-Water, it is highly recommended to re-include both devices non-securely based on the BETA branch of the Heatit app (> 2.3.0 release).

To setup the right association between both devices

1. Lookup the Device ID of the Z-water regulator by going to device settings > Advanced settings > Z-wave Device Information > Device ID. In this example I will assume Device ID is 128
2. The individual relays can be controlled by sending a command to the corresponding endpoint of the Z-water regulators Device ID . So relay 1 corresponds to endpoint 128.1 , relay 2 corresponds to 128.2 , so relay x corresponds to 128.x
3. To setup the correct direct association, go to the device settings of the Z-TRM2fx thermostat you’d like to control that specific relay: Z-TRM2fx thermostat > device settings > Advanced settings > Associations > Group 4
4. Add the desired endpoint to Group 4. You should not remove the 1 which is already present; so if you want to add relay 1 of the Z-water device with Device ID 128 , update the content of Group 4 to 1,128.1 (no space in between).

5. Press <Back to go back to the advanced settings, the association groups should look like:

6. Press at the top right of the screen (next to the Advanced settings title) to save the associations

You’re all set. Relay 1 of the Z-Water should not switch on when the Z-TRM2fx thermostat changes to the active state, and switch off when the thermostat goes into idle state.

Let me know if this is helpfull or if you still have questions to create the right setup.

Today I re-added my Z-TRM2fx thermostat with the new beta version app.
My first attempt ended with the status.Cannot destructure properly ‘wakeUpInterval’ of ‘undefined’ or null which creates an unkown device in developer options. The Zwave comms of this device are working. I removed it sucessfully using the settings-zwave-remove device option and put the thermostat in inclusion mode again (to start exclusion).

No need for homey restart or thermostat factory reset.

My second attempt was succesfull, the only thing that was a bit strange is the thermostat: it replied with ERR in the display instead of the expected “INC”. But it works like a charm. Communication figures in dev-tools look normal now, it used to be way out of line compared to the other zwave devices.

Many thanks for your efforts.

Based on all the positive feedback, I’ve decided to promote the BETA branch to stable.
With a minor change to finalize the preparation for ‘Energy’ (Homey 3.0.0).

As always, pending Athom’s app store approval:

@TedTolboom

2.4.1 (BETA), Homey SW ≥2.4.0

• Finalize app and drivers for ‘Energy’ (Homey 3.0.0)
• Update Homey meshdriver to v1.3.14

[Torill_Iversen]

Thanks @TedTolboom for the Beta and the work you have done now with fixing the issues. I have put all of my 10 heatit termostats over and now they are (finally) working as they were supposed to

I will donate for your work

[TedTolboom]

Thank you @Torill_Iversen for you feedback and contribution. Much appreciated!

[Andren]

Thanks for the new update. I have been testing it for 2 weeks now without any dropout of the thermostats. I only had some issues adding it to the homey, but after some resets and remove any node on homey, I could add it.

[Superandreas]

Hi,

I have a new homey (late 2019) and the latest app versjon. I amtrying to pair my z-trm2fx but all i get is «err» on the thermostat and the pairing times out on the homey.

• I have tried moving the homey closer (0-100cm)
• i have tried to factory reset the thermostats

Any ideas? Is it just to keep on trying…?!?

[Rocodamelshekima]

@Superandreas

Any ideas?

Did u try this?

[Superandreas]

Hi,

I had not tried this (had not found it in the forum), but it worked. Here is what worked for me:

• followed step 1 and 1a here: Adding a Z-wave device to Homey [Howto]
• factory resetted all thermostats
• some would include right away. Some would not
• those who would not include: factory reset thermostat and try again. Repeat untill it was found and included

Ps: held the Homey into the thermostat.

Thank you for your help!

[Rocodamelshekima]

Cheers. That’s what a community is for aye!

Hello. Does anybody knows if it is possible to connect digital DS18B20 temperature sensor to Heatit thermostat? There is no official connector, but may be there is some pins on the board?

[Jan_Iversen]

I have a fem Heatit z-push Button 4. It looks like it is not supported at the moment. Are you planning to support this as well?

[Seraphim]

Hello Community,

Is it possible to set the actual temperature to an external sensor or a variable instead of the internal/connected sensor. I would like to sent the average temperature of different sensors of one floor to the thermostat.

Regards
Andreas

Hi, and thanks for a great app.

My apologies if this has been covered already, but I have a question about the ‘Energy’ functionality. I’m running app version 2.4.0 and I see there is a “Constant power usage” parameter in settings, I assume this is for setting the size of the heating element (in my case underfloor heating). But in Homey Energy tab this power is reported continuously regardless of heating state. I.e. it appears as if full power is consumed also when the thermostat is not engaged.

Am I doing something wrong or is the correct version yet to be deployed?

Cheers
Frode

[Benjamin_Hohner]

I have the same request…

@Jan_Iversen yes, I am awaiting to receive the 4-button version myself, so I can add support for them in the next update.

@Seraphim

Assuming you are referring to the Thermostat. I don’t think the device allows for receiving external Z-wave temperature reports… So I would say no.

@cortinaman

But in Homey Energy tab this power is reported continuously regardless of heating state. I.e. it appears as if full power is consumed also when the thermostat is not engaged.

Good one. Homey energy is looking to the onoffcapability, whereas I needed to use a custom capability thermofloor.onoff. So Homey energy is not noticing a switch.
Based on this feedback, I do anticipate that your are using the ‘old’ Z-wave thermostat?
