How does the individual schedule of my connected heating receiver with connected pilot wire work?

Summary:

This article will guide you through creating an individual schedule for your device.

Introduction:

What is an individual schedule?

Logo - Planning individuel.gif

The individual schedule integrated into your device allows you to automate its operation over an entire week, from Monday through Sunday.

You can define precise times for each day, ensuring optimal management without manual intervention. This feature provides flexibility and efficiency throughout the week.

Why create an individual schedule?

The individual schedule automates your device with a weekly routine adapted to your lifestyle, making it easier to manage your schedule.

It lets you automate the device without integrating it into the overall schedule, providing flexibility to change the times without affecting the rest of the system.

You can create several individual schedules and easily switch between them to adapt the device to your changing needs, such as during vacations or when your routine changes.

How to create an individual schedule:

1 - Open the Enki app by clicking its icon "".

2 - In the Home tab, select the relevant device to access its control page.

3 - Click "" in the upper-right corner to access the settings.

4 - Two options:

   Flèche Enki 20px.png Select an existing schedule, such as "Default," to edit it.

   Flèche Enki 20px.png Or click + Add a schedule to create a new one.

A schedule is required for the system. The "Default" schedule cannot be deleted or renamed. You can only modify the time slots and settings for each day.

Steps for creating your individual schedule:

Here is a simple example of an individual schedule to help you understand how to set it up. You can adapt it according to your needs and settings. (You can create much more complex schedules.)

Example of what we want to do:

It is essential to take a moment to write down your automation ideas so that you can precisely define the schedule to follow. Starting at midnight, determine the state of the device and gradually establish a schedule for the day.

Monday through Friday:

Here is our objective: adjust the heating of my device according to my schedule. I wake up at 6:30 AM, leave for work at 7:30 AM, return at noon for lunch, leave again at 1:00 PM, finish my day at 6:00 PM, and go to bed at 10:30 PM, as shown below:

Our objective: adjust the heating of the living room radiator according to my schedule. I heat the house from 9:00 AM to 10:30 PM for comfort throughout the day, and then go to bed at 10:30 PM.

Example of how to apply it:

02.c - Comment fonctionne un planning individuel - Mettre un nom (Fil pilote).gif

01 - [If you are creating a new schedule]: Click Schedule name and enter a name. For the following example, we will call it "My schedule."

It is essential to name your schedule clearly so that you can identify it quickly without opening it.

02 - Click Monday to edit your individual schedule for the first day.

12:00 AM-6:00 AM 6:00 AM-9:00 AM 9:00 AM-2:00 PM 2:00 PM-10:00 PM 10:00 PM-11:59 PM

A default schedule is available to help you. You can keep it or modify its times and temperature settings.

This schedule is automatically generated based on general heating habits in a household.

To customize your schedule, start by deleting all existing time slots:

03 - Click the time slot to delete.

04 - Click "Delete."

Repeat until only one time slot remains.

12:00 AM  
Comfort-2  

To start your schedule, begin by defining the device's heating mode at midnight.

In our example, the initial heating mode is Comfort-2 at 12:00 AM, so you simply need to modify it.

In the app, proceed as follows:

03 - Set the first time slot to Comfort (the default heating mode).

04 - Select the device's state (Comfort).

05 - Set the desired heating mode (here: Comfort-2) by clicking the desired state.

06 - Click "✓" (iOS) or "Confirm" (Android).

07 - Then click "✓" (iOS) or "Save" (Android).

Your schedule therefore starts with Comfort-2 from 12:00 AM to 11:59 PM.

12:00 AM to 6:00 AM 6:00 AM to 7:30 AM  
Comfort-2 Comfort-1  

To continue, define the next desired time slot. In our example, Comfort-1 from 6:00 AM to 7:30 AM. Follow these steps:

08 - Click + Add a time slot.

09 - Set the desired Start time (here, 6:00 AM) and confirm using the "✓" (iOS) or "OK" (Android) button.

10 - Do the same for the End time (here, 7:30 AM) and confirm with "✓" (iOS) or "OK" (Android).

11 - Select the device's state (Comfort).

12 - Set the desired heating mode (here: Comfort-1) by clicking the desired state.

13 - Click "✓" (iOS) or "Confirm" (Android).

14 - Then click "✓" (iOS) or "Save" (Android) to save.

12:00 AM to 6:00 AM 6:00 AM to 7:30 AM 7:30 AM to 11:59 PM
Comfort-2 Comfort-1 Comfort-2

As you can see, adding our new time slot (6:00 AM–7:30 AM at Comfort-1) to the 12:00 AM–11:59 PM Comfort-2 slot split the latter. The Comfort-2 setting resumes just after 7:30 AM, when the first slot ends.

If the Until the end of the day box had been checked for the End time while creating the second slot, the first slot would not have been split and the second slot would have covered the rest of the day.

How do I start the individual schedule on my device?

17.c - Comment fonctionne un planning individuel - Appliquer le planning (Fil pilote).gif

To start your device according to the schedule you created and make it autonomous, follow these steps:

01 - Click your device's tile on the "Home" screen.

02 - Click "Change" in the "Control type" tile.

03 - Check that your device is in individual control mode and not home control mode.

04 - Select the Device schedule tile.

05 - Click "Edit" and select your schedule, named "My schedule" in this example.

06 - Click "✓" (iOS) or "Save" (Android).

07 - Finally, click "✓" (iOS) or "Confirm" (Android).

How does the device behave?

If your radiator does not have the built-in schedule feature:

There is no specific visual response. The radiator simply adjusts the temperature according to the individual schedule, which is executed on the platform. Commands are sent to the device to apply the settings. If the internet connection is interrupted while the command is being transmitted, the radiator will not change its setting.

If your radiator has the built-in schedule feature:

The schedule is displayed on your screen with the setting and end time. It runs locally on the radiator, which continues to follow the schedule even without an internet connection.

Things to know about individual schedules:

  • How many setting changes can I make per day?
    Flèche Enki 20px.png You can make up to 20 time changes per day in the schedule.
09 - Comment fonctionne un planning individuel - Message d'erreur - Nombre de plage supérieur à 20.png

When editing your schedule, you can exceed 20 time slots, but when saving, an error message appears:

  • "At least one day in your schedule exceeds the limit of 20 time slots."

You must therefore reduce the number to a maximum of 20 time slots per day to save.

  • How do I delete an individual schedule?
    Flèche Enki 20px.png You can delete an individual schedule while editing it.

01 - Select the device on the "Home" screen.

02 - Open its settings using the gear icon "" in the upper-right corner.

03 - In the "Schedules" section, select the schedule to delete.

04 - Scroll down and click "Delete," then confirm again by clicking "Delete."

The schedule will be deleted, and you will return to the device's settings.

10 - Comment fonctionne un planning individuel - Supprimer un planning.gif

It is not possible to delete an active schedule on your device. The following error message will appear:

  • "You cannot delete this schedule because it is currently running."

To delete the schedule, change the device's schedule or switch it to manual mode.

11 - Comment fonctionne un planning individuel - Message d'erreur - Supprimer un planning.gif
  • Why does the first time slot remain at 12:00 AM–11:59 PM when I set a time and confirm it?
    Flèche Enki 20px.png If only one time slot is defined, it automatically covers the entire day (12:00 AM to 11:59 PM). To obtain the desired time slot, you must set only the desired device state at the start of the schedule (12:00 AM) in the first proposed time slot (12:00 AM–11:59 PM), then add a second time slot with the device state and times you want to apply (by clicking "+ Add a time slot").
  • Can I name several schedules with the same name?
    Flèche Enki 20px.png No, each schedule must have a unique name.

  • Can my device be controlled through the "Heating" menu?
    Flèche Enki 20px.png No, this is not a heating device, so it cannot be controlled from this menu.
  • Why can't I delete the "Default" schedule?
    Flèche Enki 20px.png A schedule is required for the system. The "Default" schedule cannot be deleted or renamed. You can only modify the time slots and settings for each day.
  • How do I know whether my device is following a schedule?
    Flèche Enki 20px.png If your device has a built-in schedule, it is displayed on the screen. Otherwise, the displayed target temperature should correspond to the schedule.
  • How can I check whether my device received the setting?
    Flèche Enki 20px.png When the schedule is activated, the target temperature should update. For a built-in schedule, it is also displayed on the screen.

For any questions about your individual schedules, contact our technical support. Please specify:

  • The brand and model of your phones or tablets.

  • The devices and their names in the app to which you want to apply an individual schedule.

  • A clear description of your request.

The more details you provide, the better we will be able to help you.
