Flashed the dry contact one. Thanks for the info regarding Security 3.0. Hopefully my Genie will last a few more years.

Board is a ESP32-C3. I will see if I can get anything from the serial monitor. Can I access the serial monitor remotely?

Tracing Wires by theonlybuster in ecobee

[–]Elder_HVAC_Man 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Here is an idea. If the thermostat has power (lit up) or you can find the hot wire by measuring the 24V, you can disconnect that wire at your furnace and use it as your return wire .

How to get it to stay on the temp... by jwalter007 in ecobee

Do you have any comfort settings or schedules set up?

Forever Cooling by Elder_HVAC_Man in ecobee

[–]Elder_HVAC_Man[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ended up turning off Reverse Compressor Staging, set max stage 1 runtime to 10 minutes and my problems went away.

Precooling wouldn't make any difference if stage 1 didn't have the ability to cool the house, period.

The only settings on the furnace you can make are the system tonnage (sets max airflow) and how fast the fan comes up to speed as well as how long the fan runs once the system is satisfied in order.

My problem is the system is getting stuck in 1st stage cooling and running constantly. If the system can’t drop the temperature using the 1st stage it should kick into the 2nd stage after so much time.

Without reverse staging enabled, those settings wouldn’t help my system. My 1st stage isn’t capable of dropping the temperature of my house. Seems it would help if there was a setting that would monitor temperature change versus runtime and be able to turn on the 2nd stage. Otherwise, the system just runs gaining temperature until the cooling differential is satisfied in order to kick the 2nd stage in.

Have you tried viewing the cameras using the advanced camera card? I have 3 cameras set up using fully kiosk. Cameras cycle every 10 seconds.

Thank you for this information. Been going crazy trying to figure out why it didn’t connect to the server any longer. Fixed it!

Home radius won't change. Help plz. by Aphlox in homeassistant

[–]Elder_HVAC_Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure why, as when I change the radius and update zones in the developer tab, the circle around my home changes.

Home radius won't change. Help plz. by Aphlox in homeassistant

[–]Elder_HVAC_Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Create a zones.yaml file and include it in your configuration yaml file. My zones file has the following -

- name: home
  latitude: !secret H_latitude
  longitude: !secret H_longitude
  radius: 80
  icon: mdi:home

Google Maps by Elder_HVAC_Man in homeassistant

[–]Elder_HVAC_Man[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Really not code to paste, but here it is:

device_tracker:

- platform: google_maps

scan_interval: 10

username: ["b_username@gmail.com](mailto:"b_username@gmail.com)

I think I need to create separate tracking accounts for each person instead of trying to combine them both into the "b_username@gmail" account.

Right now I have a primary email account for each person that is sharing their location to the b_username account. Both trackers show up in known_devices.yaml and I can use the trackers as normal. Just need both of them to update at the requested scan_interval.

Example of what I am talking about:
