Request to support another thermostat

Hello, Thanks again for supporting these devices, I came with new Thermostat (I am looking for the perfect one for my home).

While trying to add the thermostat it shows as switch only.

The thermostat is from a company called owon here is a link of the product

The thermostat is very nice and it looks like it is a good quality. It have touch screen and not only temp sensor but also humidity sensor.

The below is what I can read from the device

  },

}

as for the DPS

{‘dps’: { ‘2’: ‘cool’, # working mode range: ‘cool’ or ‘off’ or ‘heat’ or ‘emergencyheat’ or ‘auto’ (my use case only cool) ‘16’: 2150, # set temp in C (21.50) ‘17’: 71, # set temp in F ‘23’: ‘c’, # the temp unit c or f ‘24’: 2950, # current temp of the senor in C (29.50) ‘29’: 85, # current temp of the senor in F ‘34’: 52, # humidity ‘45’: 0, ‘107’: ‘0’, # mode of connected device ( 0 cool only system either 1 stage or 2 stage no heating here my use case is only cooling) ‘108’: 2150, # set temp in C (I guess for display) ‘109’: 1650, # something to do with vacation mode (I didn’t understand it) probably it is the heat limit ‘110’: 71, # sensor temp in F ‘111’: 62,
‘115’: ‘auto’, # fan mode (auto / on / cycle) ‘116’: ‘1’, # something to do with vacation mode (I didn’t understand it) ‘119’: True, # true = enable schedule / false = disable schedule ‘120’: ‘permhold’, # type of operation “only possible when schedule is enabled dps 119 is true” (permhold=Permanent hold, temphold = temporary hold, followschedule= follow schedule) ‘123’: 25, # minimum Fan run time (min/h) ‘129’: ‘coolfanon’ #coolfanon = Cool and Fan is on / alloff = cooling is off and fan is off / fanon = cooling is off and fan is on ( this dps is for status cannot be changed via thermostat) }}

Thanks for the support as always cheers!

From GNU coreutils, there is base64 and hexdump that can help with decoding.

base64 -d | hexdump -C

Then paste in the string, press Enter and Ctrl-D gives a hex decoding.

But the dps anyway looks write-only or at least optional (not always included in the output), so even if the decoding/encoding could be externalised to a different special purpose integration, it would still require significant work to support as a custom service call to set it.

I have tried an online tool https://v2.cryptii.com/base64/decimal it show me the information as you have noted, I’m not able to get the 2 bytes fields.

As you have said there it is optional, but if you need more information I will gladly test the device more.

The control of the device via Home Assistant is what I really need and automation can be done to mimic vacation mode any ways

Thank you 👍
