🚀 Release 8.3 new features - Improvement for central boiler
- #1015 - Addition of a configurable delay for activating the central boiler. This allows to delay the boiler activation and let the eventual valves to be fully open before.
- #806 - Addition of a trigger for the central boiler when the total activated power exceeds a threshold. To make this feature work you must:
- Configure the power threshold that will trigger the boiler. This is a new entity available in the
central configurationdevice. - Configure the power values of the VTherms. This can be found on the first configuration page of each VTherm.
- Check the
Used by central boilerbox.
- Configure the power threshold that will trigger the boiler. This is a new entity available in the
Each time a VTherm is activated, its configured power is added to the total and, if the threshold is exceeded, the central boiler will be activated after the delay configured in item 1.
The previous counter for the number of activated devices and its threshold still exist. To disable one of the thresholds (the power threshold or the activated-devices count threshold), set it to zero. As soon as either of the two non-zero thresholds is exceeded, the boiler is activated. Therefore a logical "or" is applied between the two thresholds.
