Scene to turn off heat works, but not really.

Hello

I am quite new to this, and are now trying to set up a small system. I have started in the living room, trying to control heating.

 

Equipment:

Fibaro HCL

2x Fibaro Wall Plug

Heatit Z-Temp2 -

Cleverio Z-Wave magnet contact -

Heating is done by two electric panel ovens, each with a wall plug.

I have set up the system as I like, with a Heating Panel in HCL that runs the weakly program. This works perfectly.

On the Z-Temp2 there are 2 displays showing temperature. The big one shows realtime temp, the small one is showing desired, or set temp.

There are two arrow keys on the Z-Temp2. By using the Plugin "Thermostat & Heating Zone" (Fibar Group S.A.), i can overrun the Heating Panel, currently set for 2 hours length.

All working perfect so far.

 

I have mounted the magnet contact on the balcony door, trying to get heating to turn off when this is opened. 

I have created a scene, tried both "Magic scene" and "Block scene". And both works: When I open the balcony door, heating is turned off. If I shut the door, heating comes back on.

But if I leave the door open, after a while heating turns on again, sometimes after just a few seconds, sometimes after a couple of minutes.

 

My scene points to the 2x wall plugs to turn off when the magnet contact is breached. And my suspicion is that somehow the Z-Temp2 takes over control again. It is now set with a temperature report interval at 2 mins.

 

There is no option for me to point my scene to the Z-Temp2 to turn off heating. This shows up in HCL as one device with 4 slaves:

- 10.0 is the thermostat. Here I can input desired temp, but the is no option to turn heating On/Off.

- 10.0.1 seems like an external relay On/Off. Doesn´t do anything in my system.

- 10.0.2 is the temperature sensor.

- 10.0.3 is the humidity sensor.

 

So, you might see where I am stuck. Any ideas?

Perhaps you can try:

if door is open and a x time later your thermostat ask temperature>>heather will start.

I use something as:

if door is open > 2 minutes result in: temp setting - 2 degrees (will stop heating too)

if door is closed >2 minutes results in temp setting conform the setting of that time of the day

 

Succes,
