Suggestion: clarify how to combine heat capacitor with cascade temperature control
Hi there and thank you for this amazing plug-in!
Something I feel is a bit lacking in the docs and something I'm struggling with understanding is how to combine the heat capacitor flow with the cascade temperature controller.
I have it set up and working, but when it comes to adjusting the PID node, I have a hard time understanding how it behaves in parallel with the config in the heat capacitor node.
Since the cascade flow does a +-5 degrees boost/reduction based on, I guess, temperature and price, how does these values get affected by the approximate time for increasing/decreasing 1 degree as well as the minimum savings and such set in the heat capacitor?
Would be really good with a full example of the combinations of the two flows and some additional clarification on how to configure it optimally!
Once again, thanks for your tremendous work!
On my list of "to-do"s 👍
Any update on this one?
