Installing the IP THermostat plugin

[ScottRennie]

Hi Rien

Would it help if I gave you access to my PC hosting Homeseer using TeamViewer?

Scott

Let me know???

Hi,

Not at this time, because I have to troubleshoot the code in Visual Studio. Again, soon I will dive deeper into this to find the difference between my system and the ones who are failing.

OK, that's no problem. I'll wait and see how you get on. I'm happy to test if you need...

The IPThermostat plugin has been updated and should now fix the issues with the Honeywell EvoHome thermostats (Finally)

It was a real struglle to find the problem, because I didn't had the issue in my environment.

It was a NewtonSoft.Json issues which now has been addressed.

The update includes also support for the Plugwise ANNA thermostat.

Have fun !!

Hi Rien

So I have installed the latest version, enabled it, set the details for the EvoHome login and all looks like it is working in the logs in that I can see the login working and all my details being returned.

Where I am a little confused is should all the devices be created automatically as i am not seeing anything in the DEvice management section showing up.

Here's a couple of screen shots for you:

Hi Rien - I have the same issue...

Also

I only have a couple of days grace left on the plug-in since I installed it last time - is it possible to extend the trial period?

Hi Scott,

Can you do the following for me?

- Check if the file Newtonsoft.Json.dll is in the <homeseer>/bin/IPThermostat directory
- Check if the file Newtonsoft.Json.dll also exist in the homeseer root directory
- If there is a copy in the root too, please try to rename it. If this fails it is in use by another process, please tell me which process
- If it succeeds, please restart Homeseer and check if the plug is working now and delete the renamed file from the Homeseer root

Thanks,
Rien

Hi Rien

Check if the file Newtonsoft.Json.dll is in the /bin/IPThermostat directory - Yes
Check if the file Newtonsoft.Json.dll also exist in the homeseer root directory - Yes
If there is a copy in the root too, please try to rename it. If this fails it is in use by another process, please tell me which process - renames OK

... and it's working.... I am delighted...!!!

As you can see from the screen shot, there is only a profile for one device and no local temps - what devices are set up?

@Rien - I'm still having problems with no devices showing up. Sent you an email this morning with logs etc, would be grateful for some help/suggestions on resolving this issue please as I've tried uninstalling the Plug-in, restarting HS and PC and reinstalling Plug-in but nothing seems to be working at the moment.

@Scott - Scott I assume the image of each of your heating zones is showing up in the Devices (Home) section of HS3, they were created automatically by the Plug-in and I'm not missing something, or should be looking elsewhere for the Zones/Devices.

Thanks

Rob.

Hi Rob

Yes, they just appeared in the Home Tab with no Type. I don't know why only one device has a profile but it looks good so far...
