Device: HmIP-FAL24-C10 - Homematic IP Floor Heating Actuator – 10 channels, 24 V

Company: eQ-3, Maiburger Str. 29, 26789 Leer, Germany

Version 2.4.006 - 2023-08-04

** Bugfix

• In stand-alone mode, the heat pump was not switched off 15 minutes before the last valves were closed.
• Change from summer to winter time was not working.
• Activation of pump function via select button in FW 2.2.6 not possible
• After a communication error with the wall thermostat has been resolved, the channel LED may display an incorrect status for up to 15 minutes.

** New Feature

• Added new parameter DEVICE_OPERATION_MODE to enable calculation of improved on times and post processing planner (for operation with heat pumps).
• Added new parameter HEATING_PWM_CYLCE_TIME.

Version 2.2.006 - 2022-05-30

** Bugfix

• DEC Identify: Time for display illumination was wrong. The lighting duration of the backlight and the system button by sending the DEC "Identify" does not correspond to the specification.
• The channel 10 cannot be controlled above 17°C in pairing mode. After pairing, the device transmits the information to the wall thermostat whether External Clock is active or inactive. In this case, it is erroneously transmitted actively, so that the setting of the target temperature on the wall thermostat is limited.
• Dew point sensor alarm from the MIOB was not forwarded to the MIOB switching output (dehumidification control). If dew point alarm was reported by the MIOB, this information was only forwarded to the wall thermostats but not back to the MIOB to the switching output (dehumidifier control).
• WTH-2 "%" symbol is not removed when the humidity and dew alarm are cancelled.
• In the case of NormallyOpen, the LED states are not displayed correctly when the channels are switched on manually on the device. ** Improvement
• The time information telegram does not contain a note about the summer / winter time change. So it was possible that a time request to the access point in the period where the changeover from summer to winter time takes place could lead to a double changeover.
• Perform valve protection function on all channels The valve protection function was previously only executed for channels that were also linked to a wall thermostat. This has changed, the function is now also executed for channels that do not have a link partner. However, the channels with a link partner are decisive for the execution. ** New Feature
• Extension of the humidity limit by a pre-limit. Humidity Monitoring has been extended by a threshold. With the help of this threshold, a first alarm can be triggered even before the current threshold. The first alarm activates a dehumidifier in connection with a MIOB, when the second threshold is triggered, cooling is also stopped, and the corresponding valve is closed.

Version 2.0.004 - 2019-04-01

** Bugfix

• Correktion of an error when changing from winter to summer time. On the day of the time change, the time is increased by one hour every full hour after 2 o'clock.
• Correction of the valve protection function. The "On_TIME" parameter, i.e. the values for the "Valve protection function duration" were loaded incorrectly, which meant that the function was not executed at all.
• Correction of parameter change of lead up time and lead follow time. Parameter change of lead up time and lead follow time for boiler and for pumpe control are only adopted after device restart.
• Correction in status info frame by valve type normally open. Status info bit for valve is inverted if the valve type is changed to normally open.
• It was possible to link two partners to channel "Output MIOB Boiler" but only one should be possible.
• Wrong RSSI-Level in status info package RSSI level in cyclic status info must always be 0x80.

** Improvement

• Adjustment to switch off the local pump. Depending on the system, the pump is switched off after each PWM cycle. However, this only makes sense if the switch-off is carried out for a longer period of time. This is now guaranteed, if a short switch-off time is determined, the switch-off is not carried out.

** New Feature

• Channel extension for change-over function. Through the channel extension, it should be possible to switch between heating and cooling via the MIOB without the pump or boiler channel being connected.

Version 1.8.006 - 2018-03-16

** Bugfix

• Expansion for inclusion condition. If parameter changes have been made to the device before the inclusion, the device can only be included if a factory reset has been performed on the device before.
• Expansion for inclusion condition. Activation of the pump function on heating zone 1 directly at the FAL is blocked after inclusion.
• Function modification during two-point control. During the two-point control (startup sequence), the device do observe the parameter values "COOLING_DISABLE" and "HEATING_DISABLE".
• Correction in Paging-Module HMOS-Library. Catched erros which could occure after an OTAU update to a newer paging module.
• Correction for determining the heating or cooling mode after a power failure In order to execute the right set heating or cooling mode after a power failure, the time request in inclusion mode is not limited to the request at the access point, if this is not available, a time request is send to a link partner requests and therefore indirect also the correct operating mode.
• Correction when switching between load balancing and load collection during operation. If load balancing and collection were changed during operation, the load collection was not carried out correctly.
• Correction for switching off the local pump relay. If the local pump function is deactivated, the pump relay is deactivated.
• Correction for determining the heating or cooling mode after a power failure in connection with a MIOB. After a power failure, the DEC of the MIOB must be evaluated separately so that the linked wall thermostats are not inadvertently switched from cooling to heating.

** New Feature

• Parameter extension for installer solution. With the help of the new parameter "DISABLE_MSG_TO_AC" all transmissions to the central address are suppressed. Also to the status receiver address if this is the same as the central address.

** Modification

• Extension for pairing with a FALMOT

Version 1.6.002 - 2017-01-31

** Bugfix

• Improvement of data communication. During data communication with a partner, it is possible to receive data from a second partner.

** Modification

• Pumps and boiler channel are separated for inclusion mode into two channel in order to separate the pumps and boiler control. This solution allows the separate adjustment of pumps and boiler delay times.

** Improvement

• In the case of a configuration change of the valve type, the channel output control is updated immediately.

Version 1.4.002 - 2016-10-20

** Bugfix

• First long system button press for Factory Reset was 500 ms too short.
• Global pump protection function (in conjunction with the MIOB) is working now.
• Diagnostic channel test function can always be deactivated as desired.
• The "Humidity Limiter" flag in the Status-Message is set, if humidity limit is reached.
• In "Inclusion Mode" date and time are still requested, even if it is not needed. The reason is the "Date Time Unknown" flag in the Status-Message, this could irritate the customer.

Version 1.2.001 - 2016-08-23

** Bugfix

• The parameter "ONDELAY_TIME" and "OFFDELAY_TIME" of the pump are set properly.
• If humidity limit has been exceeded and the function is disabled, this is communicated to the Wall Thermostat.
• Heating Clock Funktion is operate as specified.

Version 1.2.000 - 2016-08-10

First Release.
