Issues with heating
The temperature settings of my
thermostat are missing
Adam retrieves the measured temperature
from your room thermostat and sends the
desired temperature to the thermostat
using the so called “override” functionality
of the OpenTherm protocol. It is up to the
thermostat to “do something” with this
temperature setting. Based on the
measured temperature and set
temperature the regulation determines
whether the boiler should start heating up
the house.
Thermostats that use OpenTherm do not
always do this in the same way. It is
possible that your thermostat does not
support above mentioned functionalities
or that you first have to switch it on. Some
commonly used thermostats that have
been extensively tested and at that are
supported are:
» Plugwise Anna (24V)
» Honeywell Round Modulation
» Honeywell Chronotherm Touch
» Remeha iSense (after contact with support)
You can also install zone thermostat Lisa
instead of your existing central room
thermostat.
Is your thermostat not in this overview or
is it not working as mentioned, please do
not hestitate to contact Plugwise.
The boiler protocol is not detected
correctly
• Check if Adam is connected to the
correct connections of the boiler.
• Remove power from the boiler and
Adam.
• Power up the boiler and wait until the
boiler has booted up.
• Power up Adam an wait until it has
started up, the light is on.
• Check now if the correct boiler
protocol is detected: go via the menu
to
Settings > Heating system > Boiler
.
Not the correct boiler protocol? Click
update boiler protocol.
I have installed zone heating but my
house is no longer warming up
For zone heating to work properly, the
Plugwise regulation should be switched
on. You can check this in the local web
interface of Adam:
Settings > Heating
system > Heating
. When you switch on the
Plugwise regulation, the regulation of the
thermostat is being ignored.
Make sure that the heating source to
which you have connected Adam is the
only heating source in your heating system
and that Adam has full access to control
this heating source.
