Vera 7.31 breaks thermostat?

Question

Vera 7.31 breaks thermostat?

Closed this issue 5 years ago · 5 comments

Updated Vera firmware today (currently reports 1.7.4955 (7.31)) and since then the thermostat isn't working (in Home Assistant).

Here's what pyvera is currently showing for the device:

>>> thermostat = controller.get_device_by_id(175)
>>> thermostat.category
0

Not sure if there's anything that pyvera can do about this, looks like the vera is reporting category 0 for some reason.

Here's the output for id=sdata:

        {
            "altid": "58",
            "batterylevel": "100",
            "category": 0,
            "commFailure": "0",
            "comment": "",
            "configured": "1",
            "cool": "68.00",
            "fanmode": "Auto",
            "heat": "68.00",
            "hvacstate": "Idle",
            "id": 175,
            "mode": "HeatOn",
            "name": "Thermostat",
            "parent": 1,
            "room": 10,
            "setpoint": "68.00",
            "state": -1,
            "subcategory": 1,
            "temperature": "68.00"
        },

Category says 0 for some reason.

I reported this to vera support since it seems the device isn't working as expected.

unplugged the vera and plugged it back in and now the vera reports the correct info and things are working again.

Great news - thanks.
How is the firmware update working for you?

I haven't noticed any differences after the update. Was hoping that they'd add support for the aeotech doorbell 6... just checked the vera site and they say that it's supported now so I need to try it out.
