Clarification communcation model OTGW and OTmonitor
Posted: Thu Nov 09, 2023 5:36 pm
Context
It appears that my specific thermostat and boiler minimize the boiler water temperature. In my specific case the set room temperature is reached in a too long time period. The boiler has plenty of power, it just is throttled down by not adjustable algoritms in boiler and thermostat.
Maybe I can circumvent this behaviour by manipulating either the room set point (if room set point is more than 3 degrees above actual room temp than the thormostat does send a high enough control set point) or by manipulating the control set point itself.
I can do all this by hand with OTmonitor but in the end I need a programming interface on the OTGW.
Question
How does the sending of message values, errors and thermostat power status by OTGW on (I presume) random moments work together with receiving commands from OTmonitor ?
Is the communication between OTmonitor and OTGW a stop and wait protocol ? Who is the client and who is the server ?
