About plug in, I have installed a Samsung TV and can be used only when TV is turned on. Once turned off, it cannot be turned on by the plug in remote. I can only used twice. Now there's no response.

You can't switch on any modern TV as the law enforces the manufacturers to save energy when on standby. This would 't be possible with a Wifi connection still active.

Do you ever control it from HC2????

When you bought your HRT4 you bought a secondary controller with a proportional control capability or many secondary controllers in my case and a switch. The only value of the switch working with HC2 is

1) you know when the switch is heating or not (nice to have and I look forward to when that works)

2) you can associate it to HRT4 controller.

3) as test switch to ignore the thermostat and check it works. The HRT4-ZW will resume control after a period anyway.

There is no need for HC2 to ever control the switch or be involved in the switching.

If you want to stay on the Beta and still have heating all you need to do is associate your ASR to the HRT4-ZW group 1. The HRT4-ZW will then switch on and off the ASR when it is needed based on a proper proportional difference curve programmed into the HRT4.

The HC2 and other generic controllers do not provide this so the control is better with less overshoot of the heating if you do it this way.

You then use the HS2 to set the set-point of the HRT4 controller to a schedule using the heating panel (though I would not as you loose what I call wife mode) or with simple timer based scenes.

Your config of the HRT4-ZW should look something like the shot below.

robmac, Thank you, but

Termostat I have add successful. Se screen

Please login or register to see this image.

Bu I can add correct ASR Rele. This device added at Master and Slave

And I try add this device to one group with thermostat, But it's not work.

Device added incorrect, not work On,Off button. It's HRT4 ASR

To add the association :

go to your thermostat and add to group 1 select the device that is your ASR. It does not matter that HC2 can not control the ASR. It does not need to. As I said earlier it would be nice if it did at some point show the status but it is not a show stopper.

Save the thermostat device.

Go to the thermostat and flick the jumper switch and select Li. Press the dial. Flick the jumper switch. You will see the associations being set in the HC2 status window.

Refresh your browser and check the association is set.

Adjust the thermostat to a temperature greater than current temperature.

The ASR will not be immediately be switched as the HRT4 takes some time to decide what to do.

Possibly something to do with the short cycle protection but give it a short while and it will switch on your ASR.

When the temperature reaches set-point the HRT4 will turn off your ASR. Note it will only turn on and off the number of times/hours you have set with the jumpers to protect your heating source. You should also find the ASR will switch off before temperature reaches target based on rate that the temperature is increasing so should not overshoot too much.

So HC2 never switches ASR and indeed if you did the HRT4 would override it after a short while.

It would be nice for the ASR to report if it is heating at some point but the controls are somewhat irrelevant other than for testing and you can do that from the buttons on the ASR. All it will ever show is the difference from the HRT4 saying heating is required or not and the heating source actually being on or not.

So you will see that the HRT4 says heat is needed but due to the programme in the HRT4 the boiler is not actually on as

the temperature is rising and the calculation in the programme shows that the temperature will hit set-point without further use of the boiler.

or

that the boiler was recently switched off so there is a delay to switch it on again to protect the boiler and maintain efficiency.

Hope that helps

robmac, can you post screen at your ASR device? Have work button On/Off?

In old stable version I see real icon Horstman.

[stevenvd 51]

is it also possible to use assocciation with multiple setpoint devices and one relay? Or is the Relay to dumb for that?

Yes but it in 3.x it never updated to show state on switching as there is no association and HC2 never understood the ASR when it queried it. The ASR is a tricky little devil. It either behaves as a heating controller or a binary switch depending how it is set-up. And yes that makes a difference to the controller.

In the beta version they do not show the pretty picture and the buttons do not work but if you are using with the HRT4 thermostat to control as I have recommended they do not need to as they have no useful function. It also has the advantage that if your HS2 was ever unavailable, all you would lose is the ability to set the set-point of the thermostat remotely/automatically and monitor the temperature. Your heating continues to work.

Last year when my HS2 had issues my heating carried on working. I just lost the changes in set-point automatically happening.

You never needed to use the ASR from HS2 as the HRT4-ZW thermostat controls the ASR not the HS2

Even if you were to switch using the buttons on the front of the device or from HS2 the HRT4 thermostat will override as soon as the heat rises in the room with the thermostat and turn it off. If the temperature is lower than the thermostat setting on HRT4 the ASR will be on anyway (or it should not be as the HRT4 thermostat has calculated that it should not be)

So the fact that the ASR interface is like it is and buttons do not work is not a problem other than if you want to monitor when the HRT4 turns the ASR on or off. Yes in a future version it would be nice to see if the boiler is actually on or not from HC2 but if all you are after is heating it is not needed. The only reason to add it to HS2 is so you can set the association to HRT4.

In this version the HRT4 works better than ever before . The only thing it does not do now is indicate on HRT4 heating/off and on the ASR boiler heating/off.

is it also possible to use assocciation with multiple setpoint devices and one relay? Or is the Relay to dumb for that?

You could but be careful of your heating device --boiler etc > it would allow short cycling. i.e. turn on and off too often and could damage the heating device or waste fuel.

from the other end...

The HRT4 can be associated with multiple devices but for group1 it sends heat or of and for group 2 it sends binnary on/off

If you are using an ASR associate with group1 if you want to use with a binary switch like a fibaro module use group 2. You can put 4 items in each. So a single HRT4 could control 4 binary switches and 4 ASR.

From the manual also atached:

Group 1 - Nodes controlled by Thermostat Mode SET command.

Group 2 - Nodes controlled by Binary Switch SET command.

Group 3 - Nodes to receive unsolicited Battery Level Reports or Low Battery Warnings.

Group 4 - Nodes to receive Thermostat Set Point Reports.

Group 5 - Nodes to receive unsolicited Multilevel Sensor Reports.

Each group contains a maximum of 4 nodes.

For HS2

Associate HS2 to the following HRT4 groups

Group3 to get battery status

Group4 so that when you change the dial HS2 know that the dial has set a new-setpoint.

Group5 to receive the temperature.

Do not associate HS2 in groups 1 or 2

In Group1 associate your ASR/ASRs if you want to enable more than one heating source.

and Group2 with some binary switches.

I did consider a workaround for the lack of status from ASR and that was to associate a spare S2 from a 3kw Fibaro switch to group2 and then the Fibaro unit would show when the HRT4 had switched the boiler on.

You could also just do away with the ASR and use any binary switches but it is a little expensive to not use a perfectly effective control just because they do not display nicely.

RobMac

I have 13 x HRT4-ZW thermostats

Underfloor manifold 1 = 2x thermostats

Underfloor manifold 2 = 5x thermostats

Underfloor manifold 3 = 6x thermostats

the output of all three Manifold wiring centres gives a combined Heat demand output

which is fed into a fibaro relay switch (so i can see when the heat demand is on and override)

This enables my Ground source heat pump

my problem is that with so many devices the collective signal destroys some of the thermostat logic

(I think i have associated all the receivers to group 2)

I presume i could write a scene so when heat is demanded it will stay on for at least half an hour and when it goes off it stays off for at least half an hour ?

I have done a similar thing but am lucky to have an optimizer that takes the demand signal and prevents the rapid cycling . I similar to you used a fibaro module to indicate when the boiler and system pumps are enabled by the optimiser,

You could prevent short cycling to some extent with a scene.

Make the scene single instance (if (fibaro:countScenes() > 1) then fibaro:abort() end; ) and each time it runs keep it open by putting it to sleep for n minutes. ( -- as only one instance allowed sleep will prevent ) Then if a new state happens during the sleep period it is ignored. Not ideal if you think it through but better than oscillating your heat pump on and of.

This one prevents my domestic hot water heating circulation pump being switched on and off as temperature of my cylinder fluctutes.

Thanks

Should I change my associating from group 2 to group 1 ?

[robmac 173]

Thanks

Should I change my associating from group 2 to group 1 ?

I think the ASR will work on either but I use group1.

If it is working why change?

HC2 V. 3.590

I have a problem: When I click on save Backup it does not save it, clock start spinning but only for one-two sec. also when i try to get in recovery mode after "diodes will turn ON sequentially, starting from the left hand side" center stop doing nothing. All diodes is glow. I wate for 10 or even more min. And уму after that its unposible to get in recovery mode(i try to set up manualy static ip via pressing + for long time, but it gives me nothing). And nothing is happen. And one more problem: sometimes it`s unposible to seave or change scenes.

What it can be and how can i fixed it?

[U5tabil 2]

Adding a "time" variable does not work. if i change variable for a "normal" time and "sunset" it works fine. tried with different time and "exact time etc" but it none work.
