Spooky. Ten minutes ago I put my system into eco mode, and one of the zones did nothing. Have not had time to investigate further yet.
Hi
So I have had my system for coming up to 12 months now and I am still getting used to the quirks of it.
So If I press the Quick Action setting for ECO which says it reduces all temp settings by 3 degrees this does not completely work.
I find that any of my 18 HR92's that are set to a temp of 16 degrees or lower do not do anything!
It that zone was at 17 degrees it goes down by 3
Am I missing a trick in the settings somewhere? I am on the current general public software
It really would be nice to have some adjustment on the amount of reduction i.e. more than 3 degrees which might be a good value in a modern well insulated house but my place is built 1850 so the closest it gets to cavity walls is one section that is lathe and plaster on the inside and out, but then its externally tile hung as well so that does partially defeat wind-chill.

No you're not missing anything, that's just how it's designed to work. Eco mode (in the current public firmware version) drops the set point of zones by 3 degrees, but only if the set point is 17 degrees or higher to start with, otherwise it does nothing.
The latest Beta firmware 19.33 lets you adjust the Eco mode offset in 0.5C steps and is now called Eco/Boost as you can configure it as a cut or a boost. I actually use it as a 0.5C boost when I want the whole house slightly warmer but still following the schedule.It really would be nice to have some adjustment on the amount of reduction i.e. more than 3 degrees which might be a good value in a modern well insulated house but my place is built 1850 so the closest it gets to cavity walls is one section that is lathe and plaster on the inside and out, but then its externally tile hung as well so that does partially defeat wind-chill.
So when they eventually release this new firmware to the public you will be able to do what you ask. I'm curious why you want more than 3C though - most people including me have been wanting to be able to have a smaller offset than the default value.
What I haven't checked is whether applying a cut in 19.33 still has the same 17C cut off point as it did in the old firmware.
Thanks all for replies
