Alexa Room Temperature - vmic - 02.02.2023
Hi!
I am having an issue regarding room temperature from KNX and announsing from Alexa.
I am asking from Alexa Command to tell me the temperature of a room that is I am getting it from an ABB room display ( The object is a 2bytes , 9.001 temperature in Celcius ). When I ask from Alexa to tell me the room's temperature I am always getting the answer that the temperature is zero degrees. Also the Room Touch from ABB doen't have anything in Parameters to send the status temperature always for example every 2 seconds
Why is that happening?

For read cyclical the temperature, you can write a resident script ( every 50 sec for example) or a schedule script like this:
Temp = grp.getvalue(your group)
grp.checkupdate('virtual group',Temp,your delta)
About Alexa I think you must check Alexa app config

Alexa only is checking object value in LM, as long it is updated then this Alexa will see. It does not ask RTC for latest value. RTC must update LM on its own.

Beacuse I am not familiar with scripting stuff I tried to insert the above script in schedule script but I don't know how to do it. Is it possible to help me with more instructions please? I mean I have to create a new Group address inside ETS for getting the status or not (for the virtual group)? What are the steps to do that?

In object properties you can set poll interval to periodically send read requests to it. Script is not needed.
