awesome app. but il think its missing something, or i just cant find it.
I cant figure out how to put it in just " fan mode" .

I have automatic, heat, cool, and off.

Possible to add just " fan" ?

45

You can change the fan mode with the ā€œSet the fan modeā€ flow. The possible values you can select are fetched from the Sensibo API, and should reflect what is possible.

46

Canā€™t believe i misses that one. Was so focused on ā€œset modeā€.

But what are the differences between second option and set fan mode?

If i set what in fan mode, will the pump go over in heating mode?

47

hello

[UPDATE : problem encountered in https://flow.homey.app/ and https://my.homey.app/

in a flow, I put a condition AND " thermostat mode est chauffer"
When I test it, i have an error message : ā€œmode is not definedā€

strangely, If I test the State mode in a WHEN condition, Homey wait for a numeric valueā€¦

just a bug of the test interface ?

Thank you for your help.

Does this app work with homey version 5.0?

49

Yes

Thanks

@balmli As per many other users, I wanted to thank you for such a great app! With the new Presence Detect Sensibo my AC system throughout the house is now ā€œset and forgetā€ all year round with flows to manage a whole range of scenarios.

I do have 2 suggestions for enhancements though (assuming Sensibo allow the API calls)ā€¦

  1. Can you add Presence Detect as a Trigger so users can integrate the motion detector with other devices (lights for example)

  2. Can you add ā€˜Sync AC Power Stateā€™ as an Action? Sometimes it is useful to use the original remote for the AC but in doing so Sensibo does not realise the AC is on. I am hoping I could use the power consumption as a Trigger to sync the AC Power State with Sensibo in this scenario.

Thanks again!

52

Did not see any answer to this? Would it be possible to get the temperature from the room sensor and also use the motion detector as a trigger in a new version? Or is it already possible?

53

@balmli

I am considering getting me one of these.
It would be to controll a portable AC with cooling and heating. This would be in the same room as other heating sources currently controlled by your other app, vThermo.

How would these two apps work together in the same zone? I worry that the devices will ā€œfightā€ each other if the measured temperature of the two thermostats donā€™t match.

Where does the sensibo app get itā€™s measured/actual room temperature? From the sensibo device itself? Is it posible to select another source so that the two thermostats (vThermo and sensibo) would have the same measured temperatuere?

54

Hi TorbjĆørn,

The Sensibo has a temperature sensor, and the Sensibo app is a ā€œthermostatā€. So you can use that temperature for the VThermo if you like.

55

@balmli does this work sensibo air?

56

@Henrik_Roksvaag I donā€™t have a Sensibo / Sensibo Air myself, but I think so. Hopefully someone else can confirm.

57

Thank you, that will work.

58

I have a Sensibo Air and this works with that just fine.

Only thing Iā€™m missing is the possibility to utilize the presence detector that the air has, and the ability to change between the two sensors for measuring.

Would be great if that was added so that I could make flows like: when presence=inactive then lights=off. (From the lack of other presence detectors at this time :stuck_out_tongue: )

Or even the ability to calculate the difference between the two sensors and run a logic to adjust the temp for instance.

59

I donā€™t think that is possible with the Sensibo API

But you can have a look here:

Awww, too bad. Time to go to lobby Sensibo then. :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks for the info.

Hi,
I was wondering if it could be compatible with my Hitachi system : RAK-60RPE and RAK-35RPE ?
Can we get information of the state of the unit or can he only send informations and not receving them back ?
Thanks.

Who can answer the followingā€¦

When u have a sensibo sky and it is connected to Homey what happens if the airco unit is controlled outside Homey?

For example:

  • i use the remote of the airco and turn the airco ON and change the temp
    or
  • i control the airco using the sensibo app and change things.

Does Homey know that the settings/params/option on the airco unit are changed or not?

63

No, the airco canā€™t communicate with the Sensibo, itā€™s a single way communication.
