Solved: Smart Thermostat Temperature Update Issue

Hello everyone! I wanted to share my experience and solution regarding the issue with my smart thermostat not updating temperature values. I hope this helps others who might be facing the same problem.Earlier this week, I noticed that the temperature readings on my heater thermostat weren’t updating throughout the day. The values would stay the same even when the actual temperature changed. I tried stopping and re-initializing the thermostat, which temporarily fixed the issue, but it would recur after making any changes to the settings. This was quite frustrating, especially since I rely on accurate temperature readings for my home automation setup.After some research and troubleshooting, I discovered that the issue might be related to the binding configuration in OpenHAB. I decided to check the binding settings for my Homematic devices. Upon reviewing the configuration, I noticed that the refresh interval was set to a default value that wasn’t optimal for real-time updates. Here’s what I did to resolve the issue:1. Checked the Binding Configuration: I accessed the OpenHAB configuration interface and navigated to the Homematic binding settings.2. Adjusted the Refresh Interval: I decreased the refresh interval from the default value to a shorter period, ensuring more frequent updates.3. Restarted the Binding: After making the changes, I restarted the Homematic binding to apply the new settings.4. Monitored the Updates: I kept an eye on the temperature readings to ensure they were updating correctly.Since making these adjustments, the thermostat has been providing accurate and timely temperature updates. It’s been a few days now, and I haven’t encountered any issues. This fix has been a lifesaver for maintaining consistent heating in my home.If anyone else is experiencing similar problems, I recommend checking your binding configurations and adjusting the refresh intervals as needed. It’s a simple fix that can make a big difference in the functionality of your smart devices.Happy automating! :star2:
