`pointIndex` of mode now 11 instead of 7

[MarcDonald]

Issue

Unsure if related to #11 but it seems that the pointIndex for mode is now 11 instead of 7. Due to this I'm seeing the following errors in version 4.0.0:

  File "/workspaces/home-assistant-core/homeassistant/components/ephember/climate.py", line 127, in hvac_mode
    mode = zone_mode(self._zone)
           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Other point indexes left out for brevity, but they did not change when switching between modes

AUTO:

    "pointDataList": [
        {"pointIndex": 7, "value": "350"},
        {"pointIndex": 11, "value": "0"},
    ],

It looks like pointIndex 11 has different values for each device type.

R37RF V2 programmer:
"systemType": "EMBER-PS2"
"deviceType": 514,
PointIndex 11 values:
Auto = 0
Off = 4
All Day = 9
On = 10

eTRV - radiator valve:
"systemType"= "EMBER-RS"
"deviceType" = 773
PointIndex 11 values:
Auto = 0
Manual = 1
Off = 4

We need to build a map indexes and values for each device type or system type.
Possibly some devices keep using pointIndex 7.

@Jesus-M thanks, can you add device model names, please? It will help to understand what we supporting.
I think all your devices (two types) use pointIndex 7 for modes. Can you confirm current values are correct?
AUTO = 0
ALL_DAY = 1
ON = 2
OFF = 3

ok, this is my system, hope this helps

Hi all, I am preparing a new pyephember version. eTrv and R37-RF-V2 limited support added. Advance and Boost modes are not supported. Temperature could be set only in ON/Manual mode

Can you test your devices, I hope they will work as normal.

PR to continue work
#19

HA draft pool request
home-assistant/core#140459

To test you can copy-paste pyephember.py and climate.py files from PRs above.

@MarcDonald can you check your 'deviceType' id please

[Jesus-M]

My HA system is running over generic x86-64 pc and I have no access (or don't know how to get) to the pyephember file. Can modify the climate.py but not the python module.

[Zaduvalo]

Strange, all files should be on same pc.
I am running from Docker and files located in:
/usr/src/homeassistant/homeassistant/components/ephember/climate.py
/usr/local/lib/python3.13/site-packages/pyephember/pyephember.py

dir "/pyephember.py" /s

[Jesus-M]

I don't have access (or don't know how to access) to the host machine:

# telnet 172.16.0.5
Trying 172.16.0.5...
telnet: connect to address 172.16.0.5: Connection refused
# ssh 172.16.0.5
ssh: connect to host 172.16.0.5 port 22: Connection refused
#

I am using the 'terminal' addon and this is what i get:

I would love to know how to access, but I don't ...

[Zaduvalo]

Better to not change your main HA instance.
Instead, you can try to setup dev environment.
You need to install Visual Studio Code and Docker Desktop. And use this link to run environment -> https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/development_environment/

/home/vscode/.local/ha-venv/lib/python3.13/site-packages/pyephember/pyephember.py
/workspaces/coreEPH/homeassistant/components/ephember/climate.py

[Jesus-M]

the reason I installed HA on a generic_x86-64 device is because after many attempts I was completely unable to set a virtual environment, it's completely out of my reach.

[roberty99]

I am setup in a VisualStudio Code Dev Container but I cannot find how to swop out the pyephember.py file for that library.

[roberty99]

@Zaduvalo getting the following error with your code.

"Home" is the name of my Home and inside I have two zones.

[Zaduvalo]

@roberty99 you need to replace climate.py -> https://github.com/home-assistant/core/blob/3b1fbb4088fac795a78391e8fef58c798d159dda/homeassistant/components/ephember/climate.py

All functions with names replaced, name is not a zone identifier.

[roberty99]

okay figured it out . It was picking up my Custom Component folder even though it was renamed.
I am testing now ! but at a high level basic functions are working for my two zones.
If I get a reproduceable bug I'll let you know the steps and error output.
Thanks for helping me on this !
