Hi.
I'm new to HC2 and the only thing connected to the system is 14 Multireg thermostats (same product as HeatIt)
The temperature will be set something like this:
Home Temp
Away Temp
Termostat 1
22°C
7°C
Termostat 2
21°C
7°C
Termostat 3
22°C
7°C
Termostat 4
20°C
7°C
Termostat 5
21°C
7°C
Termostat 6
18°C
7°C
Termostat 7
18°C
7°C
Termostat 8
15°C
7°C
Termostat 9
17°C
7°C
Termostat 10
15°C
7°C
Termostat 11
16°C
7°C
Termostat 12
15°C
7°C
Termostat 13
15°C
7°C
Termostat 14
20°C
7°C
I tried using the Heating Panel, but since I have a lot of different "Home" temperatures, I would have to create at least 7 different Zones in the Heating Panel.
When I then enable the "Holiday mode" I can select 7 degrees as away temp and then thick all the zones. And to turn it off I have to disable each of the 7 zones. I want to find a more effective solution.
What I like about the Heating Panel, is that if I by accident change the temperature to say 12:
After a few seconds it jumps back to the temperature set in the Heat Panel (here Holliday mode is set to 7degrees):
In my eyes it looks like the Heat Panel always "wins" over what temperature is set?
Since I want an easy Home/Away button I have tried to create a virtual device with 2 buttons and I wonder if this is correct:
Home-code
Away-code:
I'm going to change the code, so the Icon also changes between the 2 statuses, not only the label name.
It looks like this now:
When I look at My house the virtual device looks like this:
And I have to click the "open?" symbol to click the Home/Away buttons. Is it possible to get those buttons at the "Main" screen?
Is it a better way to set Home/Away temperatures then what I'm trying right now?
