I love the new climate module that Homey has introduced and I would to use the average temperature calculated to trigger flows. Does anyone have an idea if this is possible in any way?
By using:
round(mean(temp1,temp2,temp3),2)
Gives the average temperature with 2 decimals.
AFAIK you cannot use the value of the climate module.
So indeed you need to calculate by yourself.
A second way to do this is by creating an advanced virtual device with Device Capabilities and create a number field that can reflect multiple sensors as below
It’s possible with the < group > app, by creating a new device with the separate sensors. After that it’s possible to chose which temperature (highest, lowest, average) should be used for the flow cards.
Thank you! That was a great solution!
Yess, this works…
And in the same line of thinking I want to create a “Hitte Alarm” modus… Knowing when to
- close windows (preventing external heat coming in)
- open windows (to get lower temperature coming in)
- To close the blinds / rolluit based on solar power
Combining actual and predicted outside temperature…And the difference inside and outside
I think I need a trend calculation to measure if the value of the temperature is going up or down.
And in the Winter a different modus off course
Have a look at Insight Trends
It lets you determine that for any period in the past
