[APP][Pro and Cloud] Daikin ONECTA

[DidierVU]

Hi @Mickel_Luiten , I’ve been using the iOS Onecta app because my units weren’t syncing with the Homey app and it was not possible to control the temperature. I just got an update for the firmware of the units and I saw an update for the Homey app so I thought to give it a try but unfortunately still the same. I can’t control the temperature, even when the mode is on heating or cooling:

Both iOS and Web is not possible to control the temperature.
Also changing something in the iOS Onecta app is always not reflecting to the Homey app. I already re-added the devices, restarted everything.
For example: my units are now on (through the Onecta iOS app) and they also go on/off on the Homey app so this works, but the temperature never changes in the Homey app…

Can you advice what more I can do to test/help?

[Mickel_Luiten]

Are you willing to share your Daikin Account with me so i can debug this own my development Homey? I think this is the fastest and easyest way for me and you?

Send me a PM

My Perfera with new firmware (that was not installed easy, had to give it a try three times) and your latest app work fine (on iOS and Androïde

[Stefan_1]

Observing this crazy behavior on Version 7.3.1:

• One of the devices gets disconnected several times a day (400 Bad Request)
• Others don’t.
• Repairing it works, but after a while it throws the error again.
• Every device uses the new drivers.
• Deleting it and connecting it again from scratch shows the same behavior.

Any idea @Mickel_Luiten? Thanks so much again!

Repair your device, restart the homey Daikin app.
Wait till the 401 comes, wait 5 min.
Send me a diagnostic report.

A 401 could mean something is not permitted or a specific API call is wrong.

Report the diagnostic ID back

I recently discovered the behavior of my aircons was not exactly like I programmed it to be.
The set-temperature was not what it is supposed to be, so I checked my flow and discovered I am not able to set or change the temperature flowcard.

The temperature flowcard is greyed out.

When I try a temperature card from another device (even from the Daikin heatpump) it works just like it is suposed to.

Then I also discovered that set-temperature is not available in the device tab as well.

All the other variables like current temp and outside temp are available and updating just fine.

I already tried to restart Homey, the app, en repair the device connection, but without succes.
Did anything change on the Daikin API side?

Hi all, i’m trying to change the ‘fan-verticle’ position automatically when i’m going to sleep. Thought this would work, but my Daikin Perfera does not respond to the ‘Stop’ command. Any idea why this is the case? Am i doing something wrong or is it a bug? When i test it, there’s no error or something, but the vertical wings just keep on swinging.

Edit: nevermind. Don’t know why but now all of a sudden it works
btw. it takes exactly 12 seconds to change the position from streaming down to streaming up/horizontal and vice versa.

I have since a few weeks the same issue. Yesterday checked again. I have a flow created when i click on a button, the airco should be going on mode cooling and 21 degrees, but it only goes to 25. When i go manual to my daikin airco on homey i cannot change the tempature.

I do it now manual on the daikin app. Was now also going to here to check if I am the only one.

Luckly for me I am not, but I sure hope this is solved soon. In the past (last year) this was working, so I hope its a quick fix.

[Mickel_Luiten]

Probably you device is in current operation mode mode dry or fanonly where you can not set the temperature.

And this behaviour is also on the flowcard set target temp. Because is the default flowcard from Homey the flowcard checks in which current operation mode the device is in if your device is in dry or fanonly the flowcard blocks the temp setting.

Change you current operation mode to auto, Cooling or heating and try to change the flowcard again.

[Mickel_Luiten]

Delay between every flow action. Daikin needs some time to process it.

First set your mode to cooling…wait 20 sec then change temperature.

The change to cooling is 1 API call and temperature is another one.

I assume if you change it manually it works as designed?

[smv]

I have a flow created to do this. Besides that i have the tempeture “clock” in Homey that even react and I cannot amend it.

It is frustrated that i cannot see what i am doing wrong. I put the daikin first on cooling, then i say go to 18 degrees, but the temp is not responding to anything even the temp clock you can get is not responding..

See attachment. this is not working anymore. In the past it worked. When i put a delay in it, even then it is not working. can you please assist me what I am doing wrong?

[Theo_Nijssen]

I’ve an issue after updating Daikin Onecta app to v7.3.1 a couple of months ago.
The flowcard set mode to cooling is not given anymore / only heating can be choosen.

pls help.
N.B. after updating I deleted all Daikin devices, installed them ne and fixed all flows.
All the rest is working well!
Regards,
Theo Nijssen.

Restart the Daikin ONECTA app in homey, wait 5 min and send a diagnostic report.

Report the ID back to me

Thanks,
according to diagnostic report you can set modus to cooling, heating an auto.

 "operationMode": {
        "settable": true,
        "requiresReboot": false,
        "value": "cooling",
        "values": [
          "heating",
          "cooling",
          "auto"
        ]
      }

And if a test it here it works as aspected.

So mij question is if you have the same values on the device self?

And did you try to remove the whole flow card and add a new one, maybe youre using a depreacated card?

[Theo_Nijssen]

Thks for your quick response and help.

Curiously now it seens to work.

This is how the device looks like:

And now the action card in the flow is also ok:

I yesterday also did already a reset of the Daikin app in Homey. After this I still only had the choice for heating in the action card of the device.

But anyway, it now seems to work.
Again thks for help!

[Mickel_Luiten]

That i little bug, fixed in 7.4.0 please install thru Daikin ONECTA App voor Homey | Homey or if you have autoupdate enabled it will be automaticly installed.

[Mickel_Luiten]

When the app in starting all values are readin from the daikincloud(API) and will be processed with a setCapabilityOptions.. Maybe for some reason this function was not fired correcly?

Device - Homey Apps SDK v3

You can also restart the app and these values will readin

Issue still persist and yes I have the new update. Even put the play button directly to the 21.0 degree, but still keeps the Daikin Airco on 25 degree. He doens’t get cooler via Homey.

The only thing how I can put it cooler, is on the daikin app only.

I have also this “widget” (see attachment), that doesn’t work at all..

It is strange that cooling mode with them 21 is not working. it goes to 25 and I am unable to amend this.
