A python script that automatically adjusts the temperature in your home upon leaving or arriving based on your settings from the tado app. It also automatically switches off the heating (activating Open Window Mode) in the room where the tado TRV detects an open window. In addition, it offers the possibility to configure the minimum and maximum temperature allowed.
- Python 3
- PyTado: This script relies on PyTado. Install it using:
pip3 install python-tado
This script was made possible because of PyTado's author, Chris Jewell (chrism0dwk@gmail.com), and the person who modified it, Wolfgang Malgadey (wolfgang@malgadey.de).
