Hello everyone, I’ve been exploring the world of smart home automation for a while now, and I must say, it’s been an exciting journey! Recently, I decided to integrate a HeatIt Z-Wave thermostat into my VeraPlus controller setup at our summer cottage. The installation went smoothly, and overall, the thermostat has been performing well. However, there’s one issue that’s been on my mind, and I thought I’d reach out to the community for some insights or possible solutions. The HeatIt thermostat has two modes: Comfort (normal temperature) and Eco (lowered temperature). This feature is perfect for our use case—lowering the temperature when we’re away and restoring it to normal a few days before we return. The thermostat itself supports these modes, but unfortunately, the Vera controller’s UI7 web interface doesn’t seem to have options for switching between Eco and Comfort modes. When I first included the thermostat, it was configured with the following settings: - device_type: urn:schemas-upnp-org:device:HVAC_ZoneThermostat:1 - device_file: D_HVAC_ZoneThermostat1.xml - device_json: D_HVAC_ZoneThermostat1.json With these settings, I noticed there were no options to change the thermostat mode within the Vera interface. I then tried changing the device_json file to D_HVAC_ZoneTwoSetPointsThermostat1.json, hoping it might resolve the issue. Unfortunately, it didn’t. During my troubleshooting, I discovered that there’s a D_ThermostatWithEcoComfort1.json file available in the device file list. Opening this file in the Device Simulator revealed that it does include buttons for Inside/Off/Comfort/Eco modes. This made me hopeful that switching to this file might solve the problem. However, I’m unsure about the corresponding device_type and device_file that should be used with D_ThermostatWithEcoComfort1.json. I’ve made some device JSON file changes before, but I want to ensure that the names align correctly to avoid any issues. My questions are: 1. If I use D_ThermostatWithEcoComfort1.json, what device_type and device_file should I pair it with? Can they be defaults, or do they need to match specific filenames? 2. Has anyone successfully integrated a HeatIt thermostat with Vera, enabling mode switching (Eco/Comfort) through the Vera web interface? If so, what device files did you use? I’d greatly appreciate any guidance or experiences shared by the community. It would be fantastic to find a solution that allows me to fully utilize the thermostat’s features within the Vera ecosystem. Looking forward to hearing from you all! Best regards, [Your Name]
