wrj0 Posted August 23, 2011 Posted August 23, 2011 Excellent! Thanks, Michel. Looking forward to (yet another!) new release.
auger66 Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 Hmmm. I just found this thread after I replaced my 2.0 dongle with a 2.3 dongle on a Venstar 1900. The 2.3 is not reporting humidity changes. I have to query it. Plus the humidity it reports is about 10% more than with the 2.0. I just put it in so I'll have to watch this for a day or two to verify. Any updates on getting automatic humidity reports like with the 2.0 dongle? 3.1.13
andyf0 Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 My 2.3 dongle reports humidity just fine without querying. In fact querying sometimes gets back a value of 2 x Cool setpoint which is bad. If you think the humidity is 10% too high then you can calibrate it from the thermostat.
Michel Kohanim Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 Hello auger66, Does your thermostat report anything else such as changes in mode (when you do it on the thermostat itself)? With kind regards, Michel
auger66 Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 Yes, it reports everything else automatically whether I change the set point or mode on the thermostat or with the ISY. And the thermostat reports inside temp changes automatically. I may have jumped the gun on the high humidity reporting. Breathing on it too much, maybe. I still need to watch it for a day or so. I did replace the dongle following the excellent procedure posted here. http://forum.universal-devices.com/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=6811&p=52014&hilit=dongle#p52014 If you think removing the thermostat from the ISY and setting it up again from scratch would help, I can try that. I just dont' want to do it unnecessarily.
Michel Kohanim Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 Hello auger66, Removing and adding the thermostat back to ISY is not going to help. There's an option in the Admin Console which "is supposed" to let you control humidity reporting for the thermostat. This said, we never got it to work properly. With kind regards, Michel
auger66 Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 D'oh! That got it. I wasn't familiar with that option; even though, humidity was being reported with the old dongle. I guess the good news is you got the "report humidity" option working. Thanks, as always.
Michel Kohanim Posted December 13, 2011 Posted December 13, 2011 Hello auger66, THANKS SO VERY MUCH for reporting back. We were never able to get it to work with our 2.2 dongle. So, perhaps 2.3 has a fix. With kind regards, Michel
