Sinope Thermostat

[yannickasselin]

Hi everyone,

I have a Sinope thermostat connected to zigbee2mqtt. I cannot figure out what command I need to send it in order to change the temperature setpoint.

Anyone knows what are the different commands we can send it? And how to do it?

I am using Node-Red.

Thank you.

I figured out that the model was not supported in devices.js so I copied the sinope TH1123ZB and changed the model number to TH1400ZB.

Now I get the thermostat status every hour:

Any idea what I need to send?

Hi!

Just wondering how are you doing with the TH1400ZB. I just bought one, waiting for delivery…

(And also a TH1500ZB…)

It works great. Like I said I had to add the TH1400ZB in devices.js. I simply copied the code for TH1124ZB and changed the model to TH1400ZB and it worked. I had a hard time to figure out how to make it work in node red but now it works. I think it is easier if you use Home Assistant. See this post:

So, installed my TH1400ZB yesterday and yes, up and running great!

I also added tz.temperature on the ‘fromZigbee’ part, since I saw some warnings in the logs. I had also to add it in lib/extension/homeassistant.js so mqtt autodiscovery works…

I’ll receive tomorrow the TH1500ZB, will try the config and probably will do a pull request with the changes after.

Hey Yannick,

When you do a ´get´from your thermostats, is this what you get?

{“occupied_heating_setpoint”:21,“linkquality”:92,“local_temperature”:19.62,“pi_heating_demand”:39,“system_mode”:“auto”,“temperature”:19.34}

The ´temperature´one is the one that is driving crazy Home Assistant… And it´s strange, because it doesn´t change at all… The occupied_heating_setpoint and local_temperature change… but ´temperature´does not, and it´s causing me problems with the UI

Was wondering if I have done something wrong in the zigbee2mqtt configuration

Thanks!

Here’s what I get from my TH1400ZB:

“{“local_temperature”:18.92,“occupied_heating_setpoint”:19,“pi_heating_demand”:0,“linkquality”:63}”

I use “local_temperature” and it works find. I don’t use Home Assistant.
I don’t have “temperature” like you. Maybe because I did not add tz.temperature like you did?

I also noticed that “pi_heating_demand” is always 0. On my TH1124ZB i can see a value.

Like I sais I only copied the TH1123ZB part in devices.js and changed the model numbers to TH1400ZB and TH1124ZB. Maybe not perfect but it works for me.

Thanks so much! This confirms what I was thinking…
I’ve been doing lots of tests, and I think I know where is the problem…

Right after pairing the devices (after copying TH1124ZB for my models), I saw a warning saying that ’
msTemperatureMeasurement’ was not defined… Following the instructions to add converters for unsupported devices, I added the ‘temperature’ attribute…

And here is the problem… that it ‘sticks’ to it zigbee2mqtt… I have even tried to uninstall and reinstall the zigbee2mqtt add-on, but I still see the ‘temperature’ attribute.

The issue is that ‘temperature’ is being misunderstood by Home Assistant as the ‘set temperature’, and the controls are going a bit crazy…

Now that, thanks to your help, I have confirmed that’s the problem, I’ll try to find a way to delete it, and that would solve my problems.
