Persistent Comms Failure report
Posted: Mon Oct 16, 2017 6:01 pm
I have a new evohome installation in a victorian 3 storey semidetached house.
There are 2 radiators on the attic room controlled by HR92's. The Evohome controller is wall mounted on the landing below, with a max distance of <10m. Walls are lath and plaster, floors wood.
I got a comms failure report for the attic zone and performed an RF Check - both HR92's give RF signal of 5 bidirectionally.
I just bought a couple of Y87RF's, one for use in the attic as both radiators where partially obscured by low wooden cabinets, so unlikely to give reliable temperature measurements.
To install the attic Y87RF I unbound the existing HR92's and deleted the attic zone. I then recreated the zone and bound the Y87RF as the sensor, signal level 4, then adding the HR92's again. [In passing I notice the controller summary does not mention the separate sensor in the description of the zone].
After a few hours the comms fault recurred. Does this mean one of the actuators will not operate? And is it likely to be faulty?
