@Sjoors and @martijnpoppen

I can confirm that Heater State changed doesn’t trigger.

Have similar test flow setup

 ![Screenshot 2023-09-08 at 7.46.25](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/8/f/8fa525ad9a9a67d68c19af56f300cf6cf4bfc3bf.png)

and when I increase the target temperature to force heating on, the card was not triggered, while for example Circulation is triggered since that must go on for the heating the work.

The capabilities are showing correct state:

I think I found the issue:

 ![Screenshot 2023-09-08 at 8.54.22](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/5/d/5dc6bbeb9bd2a6236cbf48c5f11a22f7001147eb.png)

Heater State seems to get triggered when Heater Mode is triggered, even though Heater State did not change.

So when measure\_heater capability changes the card is not triggered.  
When measure\_heater\_mode chnages, both `Heater State` and `Heater Mode` triggers are triggered.

In the triggers code files, I don’t see a measure\_heater\_changed.json and I think the action\_heater\_\*\_changed.json files are dome how mixed up even though the other is deprecated.

Hi Martijn,

I am new at homey.  
Do you know if this app would work for the “Spa Control” app from the same company Balboa water Group?

Thank you

Is it something could be plan to be added in the future?  
Or if not, would be possible to receive some kind of support to develop it? I think it might work in a similar way as your application. I am a software engineer (Junior). I am interesting on learning how to develop Homey apps.

Hey @FMGD  
No not part of this app. The question has been asked multiple times but im not going to implement it in this one as theres no official API only a local connection with some P2P method.

Theres a home assistant integration so you can check that one out if you would like 🙂

I am currently using this plugin on Homebridge:  
[GitHub - vincedarley/homebridge-plugin-bwaspa: Control Balboa BWA Spa through Homebridge/Homekit](https://github.com/vincedarley/homebridge-plugin-bwaspa) . It works well, I thought it might be possible to do it here as well, I will give a try and see if it I can do it.

Hello,

Not related to the Homey app, but i am wondering if i am alone with this issue now: Anyone else experiencing that CMS module is not connecting to internet (blinking green light on the module)? The issues startet night to Sunday (today). [Controlmyspa.com](http://Controlmyspa.com) returns errors and i am not able to log in to the original CMS app, and of course the Homey app is not responding either.

OK, thank you. 14 days ago, it was a 12 hour downtime. But really, the last 6-7 months i am satisfied with the service, but maybe i have been lucky.
