TESTERS WANTED! New converter for Tuya TRV _TZE204_ltwbm23f (TRV601Z, TRV602Z, TRV702Z, others?)

[andreypuhovsky]

Hi everyone,
We've been working on this converter for a long time to provide the most robust and fully functional one, than we have right now in release version.

This converter supports all the features from the official Tuya application.
We would like to get as much feedback as you could provide.

IMPORTANT! You have to remove and repair the device!

Please refer to this comment to get known with Tuya features - Koenkk/zigbee2mqtt#26195 (comment).
This is the functionality in Zigbee2MQTT: TZE204_ltwbm23f-beta3.pdf
HA functionality: Koenkk/zigbee2mqtt#26195 (comment)

Please refer to your Zigbee2MQTT version on how to enable it.
For example, If you use the newest HAOS with the newest z2m you just create a folder external_converters in /config/zigbee2mqtt, copy the file from here and restart z2m addon. Don't forget to remove the TRV and then pair it again

LATEST VERSION

If you will see such message as Please report this issue to the developer with the following data in the logs, please comment here with the data it provides.
This will allow us to investigate into your problem deeply.

I have the non-OLED TRV601Z and this is worse for me than the current implementation. Some things are null and not working, others have changed name which creates work on the HA side.

[andreypuhovsky]

@csutcliff did you remove and repair the device? This is essential because the converter has changed but the state didn't update

[csutcliff]

@andreypuhovsky yes I did re-interview and reconfigure

[andreypuhovsky]

This is not enough, you have to repair and wait a little bit for device to synchronise

[csutcliff]

I wasn't aware that removing and re-adding did anything more than re-interviewing did. I will give it a go tomorrow with a spare.

Even if it works it would still be nice to not have to change the names of settings/sensors etc, it would save a lot of time.

[andreypuhovsky]

There is a fromZIgbee converter which is called only once after repair

[andreypuhovsky]

Main climate attributes' names were not changed, modes/presets are changed intentionally to provide maximum functionality and still be compatible with HA Climate Entity defaults

Nice work, I'll be testing it during the week. One thing I noticed: The position entity is not reported, can this be added?

UPDATE: Forget it, I found it in the file, you it is pi_heating_demand :)

[shajek]

Hello, thank you for your work, can test it too, I have more versions of "602Z".
If i can ask, have you this problem too ?
Koenkk/zigbee2mqtt#25833
I was trying to solve it, but ...

I'll try and check the power consumption to see if everything is OK.

[malwikl]

One thing I noticed. When the Thermostat is in Auto Mode and I change the target temperature manually, the next schedule does not reset the the target temperature. It stays in "Heat" mode until I revert back to Auto.

In the manual of the device it states that the there should be a possibility to temporarily manually override the scheduled temperature. Is there any way to implement this?

[andreypuhovsky]

@shajek I didn't notice that for my devices, but still, could you please check with yours?

@malwikl I couldn't find this feature for both of my devices neither in app nor in manual nor in api.
When I change the temperature in app the device goes to custom mode. The only possibility to temporary change the temp is boost mode.
Could you please provide photos of manual, and screenshots/screencasts from tuya app if you have their gateway?

[malwikl]

Sure, this is what I found in the manual:

[andreypuhovsky]

Thanks, and do you know how is this shown in the app?
Also as I don't have such a device, to understand how it works I will need raw debug data for all datapoints when this mode is set.
This can be done by you or anyone else with the same device.

[malwikl]

No, I don't have a Tuya gateway unfortunately. I'll try to replicate it on the device and send a debug log, but so far did not manage to get the device into that state....
