    HVAC Status?

    Has *anyone* been able to get a proper script working to get the individual HVAC component states out of the plug-in like we used to be able to get?

    I want to track zone on/off times and set temps against measured temps so I need discreet devices. I've hacked the old script to pieces. Most of the same calls seem to be exposed in the plug-in but they return completely different or seemingly random data (or sometimes just error out).

      Jon,

      Can you give an example? I didn't get into the old plug-in at the script level, but am getting to the point where I want to start tightening my control with the current serial interface.

        We used to be able to run a script that populated the following devices similar to:

        HVAC system state Heat1
        HVAC fan state: On
        Zone 1: Heat Call
        Zone 2: No Call
        Zone 1 Damper: Open
        Zone 2 Damper: Closed

        Then you could log run times, temperatures, etc. It was quite handy to figure out the most cost effective yet comfortable set-back temperatures, and to just be able to see and set events based on what the system is doing.
