Here's a strange one!
Yesterday I installed two new HR92's (thanks Richard ) thus adding a 4th and 5th zone to the system in the Hall and Kitchen. I programmed in some initial schedules and everything seemed fine.
This morning I woke to find the Bathroom set to 30 degrees - WTF ?
The bathroom schedule over night is 5 degrees, and is set to come on to 22 degrees at 7am - and with optimum start set to 2 hours this means it does come on at exactly 5am as 22 degrees is about the limit of what the bathroom radiator can achieve. (Thus requires maximum pre-start time to get there) This bathroom schedule has not changed in weeks.
When I got up at about 6:30 the bathroom was set to 30 degrees, and had the "timed override" stopwatch icon on the screen. Eh ? There is only one other person in the house and she was in bed and did not touch anything.
At first I thought maybe I should be changing my Honeywell server password in case it had been guessed/hacked but then I realised that if a change had been made via the Honeywell API the icon would be the phone icon not the stopwatch icon. A stopwatch icon means an HR92 override or an override made at the main controller.
I pulled up my munin graphs and can clearly see the set point changed from 5 degrees to 22 degrees at 5am, and then changed to 30 degrees at 5:40 - while we were asleep in bed upstairs! (The bathroom is downstairs)
So either:
1) We have Ghosts
2) One of us sleep walks
3) Someone is sitting outside my gate with an HCI80 and a laptop having fun
4) Honeywell software bugs...
I'm going with 4...
Has anyone else had any spurious manual overrides show up like this ? I have had set points and manual overrides fail to be sent to remote devices from time to time but have never had this happen before.
