Are there anybody who have problems adding the Comet 700 to Homey?, i know of others that are using the comet 700 without any problems, I have today received 6 of these units and I cannot add them to Homey.
I am running the 3.1.3 app, the add stage 1 and 2 are automatically green when the unit is in PA mode but then it just sits there and fails with an unknown error unfortunately, i tried standing next to homey without any difference, i tried 2 units now with the same result.
I have another friend that has one of these thermostats in his homey, it was properly added some revisions ago.
I have tried to stand just besides Homey adding the device, but still the same issue, I can sometimes get
the app to say âCould not reach the device anymore. PLease retry adding the device by holding it closer to Homeyâ
I am trying to connect the Eurotronic Comet 700 but I can not connect them to the Homey. I have tried to connect with the experimental version but I can not come pass the first paring stage.
Hello
I own Eurotronic thermostats Zwave version and donât recommend them to anyone, I always get problems with the connection, for example when my flow sends close signal it doesnât get to all thermostats every time it sends those signals, so I have to create flows with repeated OFF signals to my thermostats and even though a lot of times signal doesnât get to all of them and some radiators stay open (
I have many Zwave repeaters and all other Zwave devices connect well to my Homey Pro, except those thermostats, I donât know what the problem is, but I wouldnât buy those if I would know how they work, before I bought them.
in Feb. 2022 you announced that a ZigBee Version of the App is still in the works. Is there any new information about this topic?
I bought some Comet ZigBee 700227 to change my old Z-Wave ones because they are not very stable in synchronizising. But still today I cannot connect the ZigBee Ones with the App.
Hello Spirit users (I think maybe just the z-wave version?).
I am transitioning from Homeseer to Homey. Iâve used the Spirits for many years in Homeseer and all I needed to do (once) is set the Energy savings temperature and the Heat temperature. The flows just needed to switch from Energy saving to Heat and back. The Spirit simply remembered the set temperature for each. Usually 15 degrees for Energy Saving, 19 for Heat.
If I changed the temperature on the device itself, it would remember that as âHeatâ temperature.
Heat is called Comfortable in Homey.
Iâve now moved 2 of these thermostats to Homey and the most surprising thing happens. When a flow sets the Spirit to âComfortableâ mode, it often changes the set temperature of it to 8 degrees in Homey! (On the Spirit it still says 15!).
Is that some sort of minimum âsafetyâ temperature that Homeyâs app thinks is sensible? Why 8 And I have to have the flow set the temperature back to 19. Or just not bother with setting it to comfortable mode at all, it does that automatically when I change the temperature back to 19 in the flow.
Which begs the question: If this is normal behaviour⊠why would you need to set the mode to comfortable if it doesnât remember the recently set temperature for that mode?
And why does the Homey app do this?
Anyone out here with similar experiences and ponderings? Or enlightenmentâsâŠ.
Thanks for thatâŠ
I would suspect that preset modes and discrete temperature are separate entities in the app. And how the app will differentiate them I have no idea. Actually, I never operated by presets. Only set concrete number.
8 is, AFAIK, the minimum possible value. And I think it is the app which decides, not Homey.
