ECO/BOOST function #119

Closed JanvdW304 closed 3 years ago

JanvdW304 commented 3 years ago

Evohome has some predefined quick functions/ presets, like Day Off, Away, Eco/Boost, which are implemented in the Domoticz Evohome client.

The problem with this function is that it sets the temperature in all rooms to 15 degrees, even in rooms with a lower temperature that don't need to heat up. I would really like to have a 'relative Away' function: a function that lowers the temperature in all zones a few (e.g. 3) degrees.

While I totally agree with your concept, I'm afraid you'd need to raise it with Honeywell - this library is not associated with Honeywell so the contributors cannot directly help. Your alternative would be to code some sort of custom mode which overrides all of the rooms with programmes according to your logic above.
