binaryman Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 so.. I can't figure out why this program is not working.. turned the fan on manually. temperature is 71 degrees.. fan not shutting off... Living Room Fan Off --------------------------------- If Status 'Thermostat - Main' <= 74° (Temperature) And Status 'Indoors / Living Room Fan Motor' is not Off Then Set 'Indoors / Living Room Fan Motor' Off Wait 15 minutes Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') ------------ I've also tried it like this: If Status 'Thermostat - Main' <= 74° (Temperature) Then Set 'Indoors / Living Room Fan Motor' Off Wait 15 minutes Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Link to comment
jerlands Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 I don't know if you wouldn't be better placing the temp in a variable then using the variable in the program. Jon... Link to comment
stusviews Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 The fan has two modes, Auto and Fan. In Fan mode, the fan runs continually. That's the only mode that you can turn on or off. If the thermostat is calling for heat, not just in heat mode, then you cannot turn off the fan. Link to comment
binaryman Posted February 19, 2016 Author Share Posted February 19, 2016 no, this isn't the fan part of the thermostat, it's a ceiling fan in the living room... so that shouldn't matter Link to comment
stusviews Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 The program won't run unless the status changes. If the thermostat already was at or below 74º, then there was is no change when you manually turned on the fan. BTW, there's no need for the wait statement unless you mean for the wait to occur before turning the fan off in which case the wait statement should be placed before the off statement (Move line up).

Something has to call the attention of the ISY engine and that would be a temperature change. Then your logic will be evaluated and run the appropriate Then or Else. IOW: If the temperature never changes after you save your program, or ISY boots up, your program will never run. Link to comment

If it does then issue is with the conditions. It also helps to set program status icons to detailed (right click program, Status Icons > Detailed) Red bar indicates program conditions false, green bar program conditions true, solid green running then, solid red running else.
