Question
knuth 28
This comment could also have been placed in the "Third party devices" forum, as it relates to alarms from a HeatIt Z-TRM2 thermostat for floor heating. But the supplier insists that the problem is with the Fibaro HC2, making this the right forum.
I have 13 of these thermostats. Occasionally and randomly, I receive a message by e-mail from the HC2:
"<Device id> Important! <Device ID> detected high temperature. It may mean potential fire".
There is no actual high temperature. What happens, the supplier tells me, is that a single bit (from where?) makes the HC2 think the temperature is 255 C, if only for a split second. This fake measurement is even reported from slave units that have no sensor attached (e.g. a room sensor input not used). Has anyone experienced similar behavior from other devices? False alarms are really annoying!
What I plan to do is
a) to disable all slave units that are not used, like the room sensors where I use only a floor sensor. I know how to do that - does anyone see a reason not do disable in this case? These units are already hidden.
b) to look for ways to disable the entire "high temperature" alarm feature for these units (I have smoke sensors to do that job). How do I disable the alarm feature?
c) wait for confirmation from HeatIt/ThermoFloor that their reports to Fibaro have led to a solution, at either end
