This article applies to CoolPlug devices
CoolPlug, depending on its specific model (HVAC brand) and configuration, can read and present room temperature from different sources. It can also feed a desired room temperature to the indoor unit it is connected to. Control over these features is achieved with the "set tsrc" command, described in detail below.
Synopsis
set tsrc R D|I|F|E
set tsrc A D|I|F|E
Use R to control room temperature source
Use A to control feed temperature source
Room or feed temperature source options
-
D - Default. In this case room temperature will be taken from one of the available temperature sources according to the source priority.
- External temperature sensor connected to CoolPlug - highest priority
- Feed temperature provided with the feed command
- Temperature from the wall thermostat (if available)
- Indoor unit return air sensor
- I - Indoor unit return air temperature sensor
- F - Feed temperature
- E - External temperature sensor connected to CoolPlug
Examples
Present feed temperature as room temperature:
>set tsrc R F |
Use an external sensor as a feed temperature source:
>set tsrc A E |
Checking the current temperature source
In order to check what is currently configured as tSrc for the room temp source and for the feed temp source, we first need to enter the plug. This can be done by:
Option 1: connecting the CooLinkHub to the ToolBox and then using:
hcd plug L5.xxxOption 2: connecting the plug to the ToolBox directly.
Then, using the following command:
setOn key 'tSrc Room, Amb', you can see the values of the current room temp source and feed temp source in this order.
