OTmonitor reports incorrect value for Date message

[Bororo]

Hi Schelte,
I just connect OTGW between Siemens QAA73 Thermostat and Geminox THRi 2-17 M75 and found this strange settings for "Day of week and time of day" and "Date" :


Why I see Oct 11 and Saturday there?
I tried to use "Send the current date to the gateway" function, but no change.
Best regards,
Ivan

Not sure if this is related, but I have the "time injection" option enabled, which used to work ok, but it failed on 7 dec:

Code: Select all

12:58:00.000645  Command: SC=12:58/7
12:59:00.001212  Command: SC=12:59/7

Even injecting it manually doesn't seem to work:

Tried to reboot the gateway, but that didn't work. It's not very important I think, but still...

Why I see Oct 11 and Saturday there?

Probably because that's what the thermostat sent or the boiler returned. Check the message log for MsgIDs 20 and 21.

Not sure if this is related, but I have the "time injection" option enabled, which used to work ok, but it failed on 7 dec:
12:57:00.001068 Command: SC=12:57/7

12:59:00.001212 Command: SC=12:59/7

You don't appear to have any communication with the gateway here. Notice how you don't get any message for several minutes.

Even injecting it manually doesn't seem to work:
20:11:37.159175 Command (via websocket from 84.107.138.62:61590): SC=20:12/5
20:11:37.187292 SC: 20:12/5

In what way doesn't that seem to work? The gateway correctly acknowledges the command. (You don't show enough logs to be able to determine whether or not it returns the correct value in response to MsgID 20.)

Sorry schelte:
The 1st log is just a summary from the log by doing a "grep "Command: SC"", it was just to demonstrate the last few instances that the command was executed by otmonitor. After that I never san it again while it is configured to do so:

Code: Select all

/opt/opentherm//otmonitor --daemon -f /opt/opentherm/otmonitor.conf

and:

Code: Select all

 cat /opt/opentherm/otmonitor.conf
<SNIP>clock {
  year false
  date false
  auto true
}
<SNIP>

For the rest: because the timestamp in the log did not reflect the new time, I assumed it was not accepted.
Not sue how much log I need to provide, let's give this a try, otherwise I can send you an entire days worth of logs

Also just noticed that I get a "Fout 203" on my Celcia-20. But that might not be related.

Last, no rush from my side, all seems to be working fine. And I don't think that the time will make that much of a difference.

EDIT:
Power off of the gateway as well as the boiler cleared the 203 error, and guess what: I now also see the automatic time updates reappearing:

Code: Select all

The gateway basically only reports which opentherm messages it sends and receives. The timestamp in the log is added by otmonitor and reflects the time a report was received according to the clock of the PC otmonitor is running on. Also the translation of the opentherm messages is provided by otmonitor. So the gateway really only produces the second column you see in the logs.

The SC command tells the gateway which values to return in response to MsgID 20 in roughly the next minute. It has no effect on the timestamp added by otmonitor.

Read http://otgw.tclcode.com/firmware.html#operation to get a better understanding of which information the gateway provides and what the different commands do.

According to the equipment matrix, the Celcia 20 never requests MsgID 20, so sending the time to the gateway is not going to be very useful in that configuration.

Thanks for explaining Schelte. I was aware of the equipment table, I just didn't realize that I couldn't set the time for the Celcia-20.
