I need some help regarding a custom zone implementation. My problem is pretty common: Downstairs I have heated floors and upstairs radiators all in 1 circuit. The houses' insulation is good which causes our bathroom upstairs to be kinda chilly these days (mechanical ventilation on lowest setting pulls out the warm air in a few hours but downstairs stays on temperature way longer). Climate is controlled by a rooted Toon 1 using OpenTherm located downstairs.
With some parts laying around I was hoping to fix this by;
- 1. Adding a temperature sensor in the bathroom
2. Adding a KlikAanKlikUit switch to my floor pump. With this turned off it would prevent heating downstairs when only upstairs is chilly. It also reduces the impact on Toons' learning curve.
3. Somehow ask my CV to start heating up the house when Toon is on idle but bathroom is getting too cold.
4. Somehow know when Toon kicks in during a "only-heat-upstairs" cycle. (to turn on the floor pump again)
1. Check
2. Check
3. Sadly my CV doesn't allow for a second on/off thermostat (relay) next to one operating with OpenTherm, this would have been ideal to implement number 3.
4. I guess Toons "boilerInfo" parameter can be used?
To implement number 3 I'm now searching for a way to start the CV through Toon but with fully bypassing all of its functions. If I simply increase the target temperature of Toon, there's no way of implementing no. 4. Also with the floor pump turned off and Toon asking loads of heat without sensing any temperature increase, wouldn't it mess up Toon's learning curve? Are there any background parameters/services on the Toon which I can use to start the heating process?
