Reactor 2.5 chosen action is ignored

#1

I have a device to control my hot water. I can manually code like this
luup.call_action(“urn:upnp-org:serviceId:HVAC_UserOperatingMode1”, “SetModeTarget”, {NewModeTarget = “HeatOn”},device)

Under activities I select ‘SetMode Target’ in the drop down and select ‘HeatOn’
save it go to status and then look under activities to see what has been saved… it’s gone to “Set thermostat mode” which of course doesn’t work. The plugin isn’t saving the option ‘SetMode Target’. I have updated the device info under tools. Is this a bug?

That combination of service and action means “Set thermostat mode”, so nothing is changing other than the description. You can see this if you hit the “Running Man” icon–it will run the action on that line, telling you what it sent and what came back. Try that and see what it says–that’s a good first step.

Thanks… I’m not sure what happening… but I switched off/on the device and I think its working now… hold fire until I do some more checks — investigating syslog entries now…
