Has anyone been able to set a Valor Fireplace to full high flame or full low flame using a Bond Bridge?
I have a Valor fireplace, and Bond Bridge successfully learns the dual-press ON (pilot) and the single press OFF from the remote, as well as INCREASE and DECREASE flame in increments.
What i cant seem to get to work is to set the flame all the way to high/low. On my Valor Max remote (RTD-G6RH) this is acheived by double clicking the decrease or increase flame buttons. However the signals the Bond Bridge learns from doing that doesnt work on the fireplace. (there is an older forum post that mentions this, and a potential solution of adding reps via the API was mentioned: Valor G4 Gas Insert - #3 by residualimages ).
I successfully changed the reps using curl PATCH command (as the OP mentions in the above linked thread - he says he got the PATCH to work, NOT that he successfully got his Bond to set the flame height) thanks to one of the Bond engineers that made this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWOH2WqzNOU
However, the repeated increase and decrease flame signals did not set the flame height - possibly the repeats might be sending too slowly or too quickly, or the valor remote is doing something more complex like sending one signal on the first press and then another on the second press. Either way adding reps did not work for me. The fireplace beeps like it has received a signal, but i think its just getting the first increment down/up signal, and ignoring the second repeat. On the Valor Max remote this can be replicated by pressing the increment button too soon after doing it once, but not so fast as to count as a ‘double click’ - the fireplace ignores the second press so you have to wait for a brief moment between increments.
Has anyone been able to get the Bond Bridge to set max/min flame heights on Valor Fireplaces?
