TRV Smart Head for Heater - External Sensor Control Issues with Zigbee Scenes

I connected in Scenes a gate, a head (modern, 3xAA) and an external temperature sensor. I have set in these Scenes the times of the relevant operation of the head (heating, pause) depending on the ambient temperature indicated by this EXTERNAL sensor. Thus, the scenes are and are active.
By way of explanation I would like to add that the Tuja programme (Smart Life) has in the settings an option called "Heating Sequences" permanently switched on (I presume so, because there is no option to switch it off) where the desired temperature and ambient temperature, which comes from the head sensor at the radiator, are set for the week - hours.

Well, my head as I can see from the behaviour of the % tightening/un-tightening graph works according to the "Heating Sequence" and not according to the active Scenes. The conclusion is that the head cannot be controlled by external temperature sensors, e.g. in my case a sensor lying on a table in the middle of the room.

Has anyone tried connecting the head to an external temperature sensor, and if so, with what results?

What time ranges did you select?

As it is according to you a matter of importance, I can of course inform .
I would add that the hours from the Scenes overlap with the hours from the "Heating Sequence" because, as you know, a day is one.

You've just set up a thread asking for help with setting up scenes in Tuya with a time schedule. To answer your question, for me this information is not relevant.

I didn't start a thread asking for help with scene configurations because I know such configurations like the trowel. Nonetheless, thank you for your interest
I have started a thread about the head working with scenes, has anyone had similar problems that the head does not work in scenes but chooses to act according to the "Heating Sequence".

I have a question, have you already solved the problem with the head and scenes, because I have the same situation and don't really know how to solve it.

Specifically what is the problem, can you describe?
What model of TRV and what communication protocol?

I'm just gaining experience in this topic, I wanted to prepare a scene: if the temperature on the external sensor drops, the head is supposed to switch to heating mode. The scene turns on, but the head does not react, as if it is under the control of the application. I'm probably doing something wrong, but what, I don't know at the moment.

Scene comes on but head does not respond as if under application control.

Firstly you need a zigbee gateway for the set (I assume you have one), secondly if the head does not respond, it IS NOT (not - IS) under application control.
ps: set the head to Manual mode, and only ON<->OFF in scenes(possibly Pause).
Also put Notifications in scenes to make sure the scene is on. Take note that the whole thing may work with a 25-minute delay.

Thank you, I will test it right away

And what came out of the tests?

Thanks again for the tips, the one about the scene delay was particularly valuable, as I had previously defined a scene and was waiting for the effect. As for the head itself, as I mentioned earlier, the application of the head itself has power over most of the parameters. From the scenes I was able to run the target temperature setting function, thus I can adjust the opening and closing of the head - which is really what it was all about. I bought more heads and temperature sensors and will try to configure the system for the whole house, the idea is to check the temperature with the sensor, and if it is too high or too low, I turn on the heating, I don't know if this is the most efficient, because I plan to install 5-6 sensors. The subject is probably more complex, because you can, for example, control the heads (a lot of freedom points, which can be controlled). How did you solve the control of the heating in the whole house at your place?

You're welcome.
As for the functions it is not you, rather I have been telling you from the beginning that you should set only on one - ON<->OFF - and not on any part of the parameters, because any setting of scenes to other actions of the automation which is based on its own (internal) sensor in the head causes the TRV to take complete control of the situation ignoring external data.
