Algorithm selection
Quick decision guide
- AI Time Based: Best first choice for most homes.
- Normal: Stable and simple fallback.
- Aggressive: Faster warm-up, potentially more overshoot.
- MPC Predictive: Best efficiency and overshoot prevention.
- PID Controller: Advanced control with auto-tuning.
- TPI Controller: Simple proportional-time behavior.
Decision matrix
| Need | Best mode |
|---|---|
| Easiest start | AI Time Based |
| Fastest warm-up | Aggressive |
| Lowest overshoot | MPC Predictive |
| Strong disturbance handling | PID Controller |
| Very simple control model | TPI Controller |
Advanced note
MPC and PID benefit strongly from direct valve control capable devices.
