Sinope Zigbee Thermostat (Edge Driver): Outside Temperature?

Same model.

@jamer007: Does the Display feels like works for Canadian Weather (Environnement Canada)? Even if I check it, the temperature is always the same (actually itā€™s 2Ā°C, but feels like -2Ā°C based on Accuweather).

Also, I donā€™t know if you mentioned it somewhere, but the parameter to the API is the Latitude,Longitude of the city.

Regards.

Dear @jamer007 and everyone,

Any new developments on this? Have many people been able to get this driver working? After updating the firmware of my TH1300ZB, I began receiving power meter information from the @jamer007 driver! However, I still cannot receive data from AccuWeather. I know that my Edge Bridge server is working because Iā€™m using it for other things in SmartThings. But I havenā€™t seen any attempts from this driver to reach the Edge Bridge.

I was also in the same situation. Driver was fine, but still could not get the temp or the time. So I gave up, and just bought the $90 Sinope Neviweb gateway device. Sucks to have yet another hub in the house, but once i paired the zigbee thermostat to the gateway, it worked as designed.

The only problem I know have, is that I can link the Neviweb gateway a a ā€œlinked serviceā€ successfully in Smartthings, but the it says ā€œno devicesā€. So I canā€™t control teh thermostat via any Smartthings automations or routines. Oh well.

I have too many devices connected and operating in SmartThings that interact with my thermostats to accept bringing them to the neviweb gateway device. Clearly, this is not an option for me. I have faith in @jamer007 :sweat_smile:

Hi, unfortunately no the feel likes is not provided by Environnement Canada, so even if you select feels like it will not find any data and fallback to the real temperature.

Hi @jsdecarie, sorry for my late answer,
for the accuWeather source type, because i havenā€™t an accuWeather paid account i kind of found a workaround, Iā€™ve recreated an API that is able to fetch the weather from accu weather website and serve it like the real accu weather API, it is working on my side, but seeing your comment my clone API is maybe not replicating well the real api. Do you have a paid AccuWeather account? you can reach me by PM, we could maybe work together to fix this issue :slight_smile:

I faced the same issue, with the zigbee gateway from sinope i am not able to get the device in smartthings :confused:

On my side it was working fine with the first version of the driver (Before C and F and accuweather changes). Now I cannot get the outside temperature working on my TH1300ZB. (Using Canadian Weather API(Jamer007)

Tried using logcat, not a lot of info showing.

Any way to get access to the old driver. @jamer007

I do not have a paid subscription, but Iā€™m pretty sure it is not required to get current weather information from AccuWeather.

But it will be my pleasure to help you if it can helpful !

Looks like there was update from ST. I can now save settings. Still donā€™t have the outside temperature available which I loved.

Side note, I purchased some MYSA floor thermostats and the integration is great! I have not really played around with them yet. Wished they looked a tad bit better but everything is done via the app.

@jsdecarie how did you update the firmware?

When I set the Secondary Display to ā€œDisplay set temperatureā€, it shows the outside temp, and vice versa.

No errors in logcat.

Anybody else experiencing this?

My father has a Sinope base. It allowed me to update the firmware of my thermostats. It is done automatically when they are connected to the terminalā€¦ but it seems to be done randomly by Sinope. In some cases, it took at least 1 week to get the latest firmware version. What a waste of time. Itā€™s a poor way for Sinope to handle it.

Hi! You said that you had to select ā€œDisplay set temperatureā€ to get the outside temp showing on the thermostat. Was it for your Sinope TH1300ZB ?

Yes, for my Sinope TH1300ZB.

I also have an issues with the time format. It is displaying 24h format and I would like for it to display 12h AM/PM format. In the ā€˜Settingsā€™ you can change the format to either 24h or 12h AM/PM. But even though I have the setting set for 12h AM/PM the time stays at 24h. I talked with Sinope about this and they said they would send a ticket to SmartThings to update this. BUT, Sinope said to not hold your breath. That SmartThings does not try to do a timely fix on things.

@jamer007 your driver is it compatible with G2 model (newer version)? I have try and install tour driver but is not listing in the driver.
Thanks!

Dear all,

Except for the exterior temperature, my thermostats were working great with the Jamer007 driver. However, recently after a power failure, I lost the time on all my floor thermostats, and unlike usual, it has not come backā€¦

Iā€™ve try everything possiblesā€¦ and cant get it back !

Anyone found a solution or another drivers ?

Dear again all, When I check the driver in the advanced SmartThings interface and look at the commands available for the component ID outdoorTemperature, the capability listed is firmwareUpdate. This seems incorrect to me. Would it be possible for someone to confirm the values currently set for this capability?
