Control of a heating zone with more than one actuator
When a single heating zone includes more than one actuator on the manifold, you can still control all of them using a single virtual Thermostat object.
Simultaneous control of multiple output objects can be configured as follows:
- Create a virtual
Thermostatobject setting the temperature sensor located in the given heating zone as the temperature source. Assign one actuator from the selected heating zone as the output.
- After creating the
Thermostat, open itsEventstab. - Assign the
SwitchOnmethod of the remaining actuators in the group to theOnOutOnevent.
- Assign the
SwitchOffmethod of the remaining actuators in the group to theOnOutOffevent.
- Upload the configuration to the CLU.
- If the heating zone contains more than five actuators, create a script and assign it to the
OnOutOnevent instead of adding individual method calls.
