Heat demand / flame icons and % in EvoTouch controller

Post by TonkaNL »

Hi all,

Recently I noticed a flame symbol / % in the systems overview menu on the EvoTouch display.

The percentage stays at zero, even if the boiler is on and there is a heat demand in the room.

Anyone any idea what this is? Possible future function showing heat demand?

After a couple of minutes, the percentage shows the actual heat demand!

interesting! I've never seen this on my controller.
Does Honewell push updates to existing setups? Do you know how functionality suddenly appears?

update: after contacting resideo and giving the mac of my controller, they have now pushed the update as well. Now I can finally see what is happening in my system :-)
