# evohome Binding

This binding integrates the Honeywell evohome system. It uses your Honeywell Total Connect Comfort account to access your locations and heating zones.

# Supported Things

The binding supports the following things:

  • evohome Account
  • evotouch control display
  • Heating zones

# evohome Account

This thing functions as the bridge between all the other things. It contains your credentials and connects to the Honeywell web API.

# evotouch

This thing represents the central display controller. It is used to view and change the current system mode.

# Heating zone

The heating zone thing represents the evohome heating zone. It displays the current temperature, the temperature set point and the status of the set point. It also allows you to permanently override the current temperature set point as well as canceling any active overrides.

# Discovery

After setting up the evohome account, the evotouch and heating zones available to your account will be discovered after a manual scan.
