paulbates Posted January 11 Posted January 11 I've installed 2 yolink 8003 temp/humidity sensors on a hub 2. I've had the sensors sitting in their locations prior to install to understand their behavior. After looking at the FAQs, I found the refresh rules. My application is to control 2 vent fans when humidity peaks. Normally the documented behavior will be fine, but once its peaked I'll probably call for an update every 5 minutes or so it doesn't change. There's 2 commands that can be sent with ISY programs, "Update Status" and "Query". Pressing either in iox has not yielded results but that likely because there's been no change. Curious how the 2 commands are meant to work, how they are different. Any related experience from others?
Panda88 Posted January 11 Posted January 11 The yolink sensors send updates when changes happen so updates (timing) depends on the situation. I doubt you need to do something extra in your case. I do not know the update rules for humidity but you could ask service@yosmart.com There is currently no difference between update and query - besides query can be rub at a higher level causing all devices to be queried 1
paulbates Posted January 11 Author Posted January 11 Understood, thank you, that helps. The updates to humidity are referred to in the FAQs "At least 0.9°F (0.5°C) change over a period longer than 1 minute. At least 3.6°F (2°C) change within 1 minute. At least 5% change over a period longer than 1 minute. Device alert level reached or restored to normal range. The data will be refreshed automatically once an hour." I'm pretty sure they're referring to humidity with "%"
