Heat-it Controller - instructions - suggestion

[Guest samuelboerhoop]

At home I installed the heatit controller for my floor heating in the bathroom.

 

Heatit unit V1.5 version - HC2 V4.090

 

Included in the HC2

added to my bathroom under rooms as thermostat.

 

several temperatures are being set up in the heating panel > the whole week at 15degrees

 

When i manually changed the temperature on my iphone app > like 26degrees (room temperature = 24degrees > then the thermostat turns on > within a minute or shorter the temperature setpoint returns to 15degrees!!

 

When i use the website interface under heating panel "manual mode" > I can set the temperature and time manually. then it works !!

 

What i am doing wrong?

I think the heating panel routine is overriding your set value. Please try disabling the room schedule in the heating panel and then try manually setting a set point temperature.

ok i did. that works but then i still need a schedule when my floor heating should turn on or off. Does somebody has a scene where he puts a schedule for his or her thermostat in lua code?

Did you tried heating panel?

[Guest FredrikKarlsson]

Yes, he did (see his first post). The problem is that he world like to do a manual override of the temperature setting, that is not then reset by the heating panel.

It would actually not be a bad feature if the heating panel would be stopped from doing the normal schedule for x number of hours if you set a temperature manually.

: I agree i the webinterface under the heating panel and after you selected the room name... you will see manual mode > this one works for x amount of hours, but in the app it doesn't... So i disconnect the heatpanel from the room and trying to make my won scene for the floor heating for the mean while.

Ok, what about LUA scene, so if there is different setpoint in thermometer, than desired setpoint by heating panel, than activate manual or holiday mode. These modes are useable through REST API too.

I have VD for activating such modes, but i have to dig very deep into my HDD (created for customer).

Is HeatIt thermostat fully compatible with HCL?

[jakub.jezek 371]

Yes, it is. I mostly test it with HCL.

Hi Guys,

 

there is a scene and vd to change the temperature for a defined period by overwriting the heating panel.

The use of the heating panel for the heat-it controller in V4.101 and above from the HC2. aren't working anymore. That's why i made two scenes: One for weekdays and another one for the weekend. (bathroom floor heating)

 

make two scenes:

the first one for weekdays

 

--[[
%% properties
%% weather
%% events
%% globals
Time
--]]

local currentDate = os.date("*t");
local cTime = fibaro:getGlobalValue('Time');
--local startSource = fibaro:getSourceTrigger();

-- Switch ON Floorheating Bathroom at 3:30
if ((currentDate.wday == 2 or   -- monday
     currentDate.wday == 3 or   -- tuesday
     currentDate.wday == 4 or   -- wednesday
     currentDate.wday == 5 or   -- thursday
     currentDate.wday == 6) and -- friday
    (cTime == '18:24' ))
then
    fibaro:call(262, "setThermostatSetpoint", "1", "20");
end

-- Switch OFF Floorheating Bathroom at 7:30
if ((currentDate.wday == 2 or   -- monday
     currentDate.wday == 3 or   -- tuesday
     currentDate.wday == 4 or   -- wednesday
     currentDate.wday == 5 or   -- thursday
     currentDate.wday == 6) and -- friday
    (cTime == '07:30' ))
then
    fibaro:call(262, "setThermostatSetpoint", "1", "15");
end

 

The second one for the weekend:

--[[
%% properties
%% weather
%% events
%% globals
Time
--]]

local currentDate = os.date("*t");
local cTime = fibaro:getGlobalValue('Time');
--local startSource = fibaro:getSourceTrigger();

-- Switch ON Floorheating Bathroom at 5:00
if ((currentDate.wday == 1 or    -- sunday
     currentDate.wday == 7) and  -- saturday
    (cTime == '05:00' ))
then
    fibaro:call(262, "setThermostatSetpoint", "1", "20");
end

-- Switch OFF Floorheating Bathroom at 9:30
if ((currentDate.wday == 1 or   -- sunday
     currentDate.wday == 7) and -- saturday
    (cTime == '09:30' ))
then
    fibaro:call(262, "setThermostatSetpoint", "1", "15");
end

Make sure you set parameter 1 on HEAT in the advanced tab of the Heat-it controller.

and under  Polling time interval: set to Device uses global polling

those two scenes are set on automatic

 

The Time is set by another scene, (automatic) make a Variable in Variables Panel and call it "Time"

This will give you a stable Time

--[[
%% properties
%% autostart
%% globals
--]]
 
if (fibaro:countScenes() > 1) then
  fibaro:debug('NO!')
    fibaro:abort()
    end
 
while (true) do
  local cDate = os.date("*t")
  local cTime = string.format("%02d", cDate.hour) .. ":" .. string.format("%02d", cDate.min)
  --fibaro:debug(cTime)
  fibaro:setGlobal('Time', cTime)
  fibaro:sleep(60 * 1000)
  
  end
 

Have fun~
