Micro flow opening threshold and formula based profiles

Post by electromechanics »

I have created a number of formula in the MicroFlow formula tool.
Example

Code: Select all

gt(ta,22,10) & lt(to,22,5) | gt(co2,800,200)

However, in the Microflow interface window there is an option to set the opening threshold temperature.
What effect does this have on my code, and how to i disable it's effect? e.g. set it to -100?

I think you are talking about "Macroflow" and not "Microflow", they are different things. Also, questions on Microflow/Macroflow can be posted into their own sections on the forum, you are currently in the wrong place. Anyway....

Just leave it on the default of 0 and it should remain inactive. I suspect that if you change the figure to something else it may trigger an override.

On another point, the profile you have looks a little unusual but without knowing what you are trying to achieve it is difficult to comment further. It is effectively limiting the windows to only being open when the outside temperature is less than 24.5C. I guess you are trying to model some sort of mixed mode cooling?
