Integración Honeywell Evohome para Gladys Assistant

Honeywell / Resideo Evohome heating: zones, setpoints, system modes and hot water.

info

La documentación de esta integración la escribe su autor y, por ahora, solo está disponible en inglés.

This integration brings a Honeywell / Resideo Evohome heating system into Gladys through the international Total Connect Comfort cloud, the one of the Evohome app (Europe, United Kingdom): the Evohome controller (Evotouch, Evohome Wi-Fi, Round Wireless with its RFG100 gateway), its heating zones and the hot water. It uses the account of the app. Unofficial, not affiliated with Honeywell or Resideo.

Development version (0.1). Built from the protocol of evohome-async (the library of the Home Assistant evohome integration) and tested with simulated answers, not with a real Evohome system yet. Feedback is welcome on the GitHub repository.

What you get​

DeviceIn Gladys
The systemsystem mode (settable), end of a temporary mode, fault, active faults
Each zonetemperature, setpoint (settable), heating on/off, setpoint mode (settable), end of the override, low battery, fault, active faults
Hot watertank temperature, on/off (settable), mode (schedule, on, boost, off), end of the override, low battery, fault, active faults
  • System modes: Auto (the schedule), Economy, Away, Day off, Custom, Heating off, and "Auto, zones reset" (Auto and every zone back to its schedule), as your controller offers them.
  • Setpoint: a setpoint changed from Gladys holds for 60 minutes by default (then the zone goes back to its schedule), or until changed again: see the options. The zone setpoint mode tells whether the zone follows its schedule or holds an override, and until when.
  • Heating off on a zone holds it at its minimum (5 °C, frost protection) until you choose Heating again, which puts it back on its schedule. A zone also reads "off" when the whole system is in Heating off.
  • Hot water: on and off are permanent; Boost turns it on for the configured time (60 minutes by default); Schedule puts it back on its programme.
  • Faults come from the Evohome cloud: low batteries, lost communication with a sensor, an actuator, the boiler or the gateway… "Fault" is 1 while one is active, "Active faults" lists them, "Battery low" is 1 when one of them is a low battery. When the gateway loses its connection, the badges of the devices turn unreachable with an orange dot.
  • The temperatures have the resolution the cloud gives (often 0.5 °C), and the cloud learns a change made on the controller within a few minutes.

Installation​

  1. Install the integration from the Gladys store.
  2. In the Configuration tab, enter the e-mail and password of your Total Connect Comfort account (the ones of the Evohome app), then save.
  3. The status says "Connected to Evohome "My Home": 6 zones and hot water".
  4. Open the Discovery tab and add the devices you want. Their values arrive as soon as they are added.

The Test the connection button reads the cloud again and lists the locations of the account, the mode and the faults.

Several homes​

An account can hold several locations. The integration follows one: the first by default, or the one whose name or number you type in Location. "Test the connection" lists the names and numbers.

Scenes​

Four scene actions:

  • Set the Evohome system mode: a mode, permanently or for a while: hours for Economy (until the end of the hour, 24 h at most), days for Away, Day off and Custom (until midnight, today counting as the first day).
  • Set an Evohome zone setpoint: a zone and a temperature, for a number of minutes (empty: the default of the configuration; 0: permanently).
  • Put an Evohome zone back on its schedule.
  • Set the Evohome hot water: on, off or schedule, permanently or for a number of minutes.

They return until, the end of the override (UTC, empty when permanent).

Three scene triggers:

  • Evohome system mode changed: the mode changed outside Gladys (on the controller, in the app, at the end of a temporary mode). Variables: system_name, mode, previous_mode, permanent, until. A mode set from Gladys does not fire it.
  • Evohome fault detected and Evohome fault cleared: for one device or all; variables device_name, fault_type (e.g. TempZoneActuatorLowBattery) and since.

The faults already active when the integration starts fire nothing. The temperatures and setpoints work with the usual "Device state changed" trigger.

How often it reads​

Honeywell limits the number of sign-ins and requests per account (a lockout of an hour has been reported). The integration:

  • signs in once and keeps the session (about 30 minutes, renewed with its refresh token) in its /data folder, so a restart does not sign in again;
  • reads the status of the location in one request, every 5 minutes by default (60 s minimum, like Home Assistant), plus one read 15 s after a command;
  • reads the installation (zones, hot water, allowed modes) at start-up, once a day and on Scan in the Discovery tab (at most every 10 minutes);
  • waits 1, 2, 5, 10 then 15 minutes after errors, and as long as Honeywell asks after a "too many requests" (30 minutes otherwise, an hour after too many sign-ins).

Troubleshooting​

  • "Total Connect Comfort refused the e-mail or password": check them on international.mytotalconnectcomfort.com, then in the configuration. The integration does not retry by itself: it waits for a change or a click on Test the connection.
  • "Too many sign-ins" or "asks to slow down": Honeywell blocks the account for a while. Do not lower the refresh interval; stop other tools that read the same account (Home Assistant, Homebridge…) if you can.
  • "Total Connect Comfort cannot be reached": the cloud or your Internet access is down (service status: https://status.resideo.com).
  • A zone has no temperature: its sensor does not answer the controller (see its faults).
  • A US / Canada thermostat or a Lyric / T-series: this is not the right integration, see the table at the top.

Privacy​

The e-mail and password are stored by Gladys as a secret (never sent back to the browser). The integration only sends them to tccna.resideo.com, the Total Connect Comfort cloud of the Evohome app, to open a session; it keeps the access and refresh tokens and the user id in its /data folder (with a hash of the e-mail, never the password). Honeywell, Evohome and Total Connect Comfort are trademarks of their owners; this integration is not affiliated with Honeywell or Resideo.

Cómo instalar Honeywell Evohome en Gladys​

  1. En Gladys, abre Integraciones: Honeywell Evohome aparece en el catálogo junto a las integraciones nativas, con una insignia de comunidad.
  2. Haz clic en Instalar. Gladys descarga la imagen Docker (ghcr.io/lm1lc3n7/gladys-evohome:0.1.1), la ejecuta en un entorno aislado del núcleo y genera la interfaz de la integración (dispositivos, descubrimiento y configuración).
  3. Abre la pantalla de Configuración de la integración, rellena los parámetros y guarda.
  4. También puedes instalarla directamente desde la URL de su repositorio: https://github.com/LM1LC3N7/gladys-evohome.

Honeywell Evohome requiere Gladys >=5.1.0. El catálogo de Gladys se actualiza cada hora, así que una nueva versión está disponible como máximo una hora después de publicarse.

¿Todavía no usas Gladys? Es gratuito y de código abierto: sigue la guía de instalación para empezar.

Sobre las integraciones externas​

Honeywell Evohome es una integración externa: una integración comunitaria empaquetada como contenedor Docker y publicada en GitHub. Gladys la instala con un clic y la ejecuta en un entorno aislado del núcleo. La publica y mantiene LM1LC3N7, no el equipo principal de Gladys.
