OTR1 reviver

[absent42]

Just wanted to report that HA-Hive-Local-Thermostat seems to be working fine with the new OTR1 receiver. Is there anything you'd like me to particularly test with it?

Hi, I wasn't aware of the OTR1 but it's good it seems to work the same way, I'm using an SLR2 myself and need the water relay.
Out of interest are you using this via relay or open therm?

I'll add a note to the readme to choose SLR1 if it's an OTR1 for now but in future I may change the config options to make it more obvious, even though it'll be the same code behind the scenes.

Thanks for the coffee btw 😄

Hi, just via relay, my boiler doesn't support open therm. There's a switch on the back of the receiver to select standard or open therm so I guess everyone gets sent one of these now regardless of boiler type.

Thanks for the great integration!

Thanks for the explanation, if it's just a switch I doubt it'll change the zigbee details for open therm so hopefully it'll work either way.

I've just released version 1.3.5, this gives the option to explicitly setup as OTR1 to avoid confusion.
It executes the same code as the SLR1 but you may want to change your integration options to set it as OTR1 just in case we get any differences creep in (no history loss/entity name changes so safe).

Thanks. Got it updated, however my entire HA LXC hung and to be reboot from Proxmox when I changed the device model. Tried to change the device model several times but had to add it as a new device then delete the old device in order for it to work.

Oh, thanks for the report and sorry for the hassle, I will test that out, sounds pretty reproducible.
