MWD5

MWD5 custom component for Home Assistant

Features:

• Auto detection of thermostats associated with your account
• Supports MANUAL/BOOST/FROSTPROTECTION/AUTO settings (as presets)

Limitations

• Thermostats must belong to zones/groups

• Confirmed to be working with thermostats branded:

  • TECE
  • SpeedHeat

• Energy download not supported (since I don't use that feature)

• The code polls the server for thermostat status once a minute

  • using a socket implementation would be better

• API endpoint is : "https://ocd5.azurewebsites.net:443"

  • I'm mentioning this because I've seen some other endpoints used with these thermostats

• ... Probably others

How to use

• Copy the MWD5 folder to your home assistant custom_components folder

  • example: /opt/home-assistant/custom_components/mwd5

• Edit climate.py and set your username/password

  • I have used the same user/pass used in the SWATT app by OJ Electronics
  • https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ojelectronics.owd5.r1099&hl=en&gl=US

• Add the following in your configuration.yaml file:

climate:
   platform: mwd5
   # scan_interval default is 30 (internal code protects against server bashing)
   scan_interval: 20
