rafarataneneces Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 My fellow programmers!!Soon I will post a program that will allow you to use your AC only 10-15 minutes per hour. I will also upload screenshots. The objective is 1) Save money on AC 2) See if you can help me make my program better I have been running the program for around 2 weeks now and it's amazing!It is very complex though, so any thoughts how to post a program that contains 40+ subprograms? Can I zip it somehow? The program essentially turns on the AC when humidity is high or when temperature is high and turns it off when the house is cool (see screenshot) Store Temperature =================================================================================== Store Temperature -

elvisimprsntr Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 I apply the KISS principal. 10 PM cool house down to make it comfortable to sleep 6 AM cool house down before you leave for work Raise temp when not at home As a result my AC never turns on during day. Link to comment
larryllix Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 If my A/C could only run 15 minutes per hour I bought too big of a unit or I don't need one at all. You could do a text save of the programs and zip it it leave it raw for examination. Having thought about many HVAC algorithms, myself I would very interested in seeing what you have done. Heck, I even have cold well water running through my concrete floors. Link to comment
stusviews Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 I'd certainly be interested in an algorithm that can outsmart a thermostat to maintain ambient temperature--most especially if it depends on the thermostat Link to comment
Teken Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Not sure what this program is going to do if the most basics are not present or done. Assuming over all comfort is the ultimate goal there is no software method that will supersede the need to have the following present in the home. 1. Appropriate colored exterior shingles, walls, doors. 2. Proper shading from tree's, awning, terrain. 3. Proper amount of insulation in the roof, walls, floors. 4. Sufficient mass / density in the super structure. 5. Passive cooling / heating design elements. 6. Correct R rated windows, doors, GDO. Those who are serious about energy conservation and environmental control should review *Passive Haus* techniques and PCM technology. PCM technology hasn't caught on quite yet but those who use such materials will notice greater comfort and consistent temperatures through out their home. Link to comment
apostolakisl Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 I'm not sure what this series of programs is doing besides setting a variable to the current temp. Link to comment
larryllix Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 All the temperature, humidity and set point synchronisation programs can be replaced with one for each parameter (3 programs) with v5.0.4 or using the Network module. Temperature grab/synchro programs from 88 degrees and up all have logical errors in them and cannot function properly Initiating programs are all disabled and could not have ever triggered, as listed. No program would ever run. Turning the A/C warmer, while not home would never work for me, as I would just live in a hot and humid house. Our humidity peaked at 92% on Tuesday and allowing the house levels to rise takes days to recover back to a comfort level. My A/C runs about 90% of the time to keep the house regulated, by design. Less on time duration ratio does not remove the humidity and molding may result. This may make more sense in the western provinces or states where humidity isn't a factor, and temperatures can be reduced 10 degrees F in an hour or two. Here that would be 36-48 hours minimum.

Teken Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 After looking over the programs I don't see how this would help in the over all comfort of the home?!?! No software program is going to supersede thermodynamics, heat soaking, and the need to remove the heat. The closet a person will get to off setting heat / cold is employing the proper amount of mass, density, and PCM. I've applied many of the concepts of *Passive Haus* and working on integrating PCM technology into my home. After eight years living in my home doing the above I can affirm to you all the technical concepts absolutely work. As noted above one of the other missing factors (elements) that should have been listed as number (7) is leakage / air exchange per hour. All of these elements are critical if the holy grail of energy and economic savings are the goal as each of them are integral to the system. Link to comment

How can I use network module for this? What about 5.0.4 is that beta? If I upgrade and don't like it can I go back to 4? Link to comment
larryllix Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 How can I use network module for this? What about 5.0.4 is that beta? If I upgrade and don't like it can I go back to 4? I had written a series of programs to do just what you are doing using select temperatures, finer in the areas of interest and coarser outside those ranges. Here is my preferred source and program to sample the humidity from Venstar stat ->NodeLink -> ISY variable. Sync.inHumid.Venstat - [ID 00A3][Parent 0101] If $VenStat.updating is $cTRUE And 'Gathering Room / GathRm VenStat' Humidity <= 65% And 'Gathering Room / GathRm VenStat' Humidity >= 15% Then Disable Program 'Sync.inHumid.Insteon' Wait 10 seconds $sHouse.humidity Init To 'Gathering Room / GathRm VenStat' Humidity % $sHouse.humidity = 'Gathering Room / GathRm VenStat' Humidity % Else Wait 10 seconds Enable Program 'Sync.inHumid.Insteon' If the Venstar comm fails I fall back to a direct Insteon thermostat. Notice the "disables" of this program in the previous one? Sync.inHumid.Insteon - [ID 010B][Parent 0101][Not Enabled] If 'Utility Room / Util Therm' Humidity <= 65% And 'Utility Room / Util Therm' Humidity >= 15% Then $sHouse.humidity Init To 'Utility Room / Util Therm' Humidity % $sHouse.humidity = 'Utility Room / Util Therm' Humidity % Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') For the Network module method you use a Network Resource containing a URL with device value substitution that writes the parameter directly to an ISY variable using it's REST interface, documented in the ISY wiki. So IOW, ISY talks to itself. Yes you can go back to ISY v4, but once you have written programs using the newer features you will not be able to support them in v4. V5.0.4 has a few parameters missing from device status pages yet, needs some gui tweaks to clean it up (boxes off small monitors screens), but has never failed me in months of use. All program stuff works flawlessly from what I have seen. No, v5.0.4 is not even beta, but rather alpha. UDIs alpha code is still more polished than many small company's finished products, from my experiences. Link to comment
