Base station learning phase

What happens when the base station is switched on? #

After the base station is switched on, the algorithm spends the first 30 minutes analysing the thermostats’ outputs. Once a cycle is identified, this heating zone is included in the balancing process. If no cycle is detected, this heating zone is not part of the load balancing process and the unmodified thermostat signal is transmitted to the valve actuator. The thermostat outputs continue to be analysed and, when a cycle is detected, the heating zone is included in the balancing process.
