Fermenter hysteresis

Open MikonosII opened this issue 7 years ago • 6 comments

The fermenter hysteresis requires values in the heater component even if no heater actor exists in the fermenter hardware setup. With out some values in for the heater on / off the auto won't work.

It works fine for me. Do you have values in all 4 offset fields? What does your log say?

Auto mode works but you will see errors for the function heater_off(), I assume because no heater actor is present app.txt

Yeah, it will show errors in the log, but shouldn't break anything. It's probably not a bad idea to verify that there is a heater configured before turning it on/off, but since that doesn't actually break anything it's pretty low priority in the fixes.

I had the same problem. Without any values entered into the heating offset fields, the Auto function would not turn on the cooling

Yeah, even if you are not using heating, you still have to fill in all offset fields.

This can be more easily detected when using PR #221
