[OpenTRV-dev] any news?

[Damon Hart-Davis]

Hi,

FOSDEM is at the very end of January.

I have got quite a lot of the glacial-open and maximum-open stuff integrated as needed for (for example) systems such as yours, Bo, where opening too fast costs (per m^3) real money beyond a little temperature overshoot.  It is largely the same code as being used to avoid excessive valve movement and battery use.

We have our first official meeting about our IoT Launchpad project tomorrow, which will make it more real.

I have to pull my finger out and bootload one of our REV7 boards tomorrow (no, STILL not done it, been busy with the valve control algorithm).  Grrr, I am a naughty boy...

Rgds

Damon
