Only a few HA users on this forum, you may be better of asking on HA forum
Is this thermostat setpoint entity value part of a service, if so you may get what you need using the call service node (i am not a HA user so this is my best guess)
Yes running Node red in HA. Yes I have created a scheduler in node red function node and want this to update the time setting in the intity for the generic thermostat in HA which has a thermostat card in the HA dashboard, which will inturn switch the heating on or off based on the current temperature.
Thanks Danny
Thanks. I have posted there too, but no responses yet.
Basically the thermostat is and entity which has a card on the HA Dashnoard.
Thanks for your response
Thanks Jean,
Im am trying to set an attribute within the entity. Im not quite sure how the generic thermostat works in HA, but it has several attributes as well as can swtich the output. I am trying to set the attribute (temperarture setting) which will inturn switch the heater on an off, basically simulating switching up the temperature setting dial.
That works and changes the temperature, however only lets you set a fixed temp when running the service
Could this be done from node red with a variable from a function node to set the temperature
worked it out. Thanks Jean, you got me on the right track.
basically used a call service node with the following
The temp variable is determined from my function node that sets the temp based on the period of the day (Mon -Fri, Sat, and Sun)
