WiFi Controller Zone and Schedule Backup

[MrB]

After setting up 12 zones with individual daily schedules (which takes a reasonable amount of time to do). I'm concerned about it reseting and wiping the lot.

The Controller is connected to the Honeywell servers via the Internet and in this modern life having backups is more than just "highly recommended".

What are the options?

Not possible at the moment though Honeywell should really implement it. I got hacked off and added schedule backup / restore to my own app.

A good tip is to take a photo of the scheduler screens, either by doing screenshots if you use the mobile app, or by taking photos of the controller screen.

That's what I thought as well Paul, but I also thought 'Nah, too stone age. It's connected to the Internet for ....'

If it was a simple standalone device with no WiFi - ok - no backup, but we are a long way up from there.

But I guess I'll have to use a 2nd Heath Robinson approach, and for data back up - photo screen shots....

I've used the python script referenced in the API thread.

I'm working on a php project to build on the PHP API, and am toying with the idea of a Web app that would do things like data logging and back up restore for any system. Setting up python isn't hard, but it seems a lot of effort and not ideal for an 'everyday' user.
