Ok, so for a long time, fan ‘circulate’ was only selectable with mode ‘off’.
Now it is a selectable fan setting for emer/auto/heat/cool, but it still doesn’t work… so what is the point? It is still broken/non-functional (unless mode selection is ‘off’)
Spoke to a contact at ADC that stated they are indeed adding this functionality. (Circulate while mode is on) Checking with engineers there whether the feature is actually ready or if any sort of firmware update is still needed prior.
Testing occurs, but isolated testing does not 100% translate to zero issues when applied in a wide fashion. I’m expecting a follow up today on this so we should have some insight. Hopefully an ETA when the circulate function will work for all modes.
The circulate feature being available in Heat/Cool wasn’t intended to be an option you can select yet, but it is being actively worked on. It should be a functional option fairly soon but I am told it will require an OTA to the Tstat which in turn will require the latest 2GIG Firmware (1.14.01)
Circulate is working for me as normal (works in “Off” only) Just set up this ADC T2000 today.
It works when remotely and manually switching to “Off”
Also works based on hard internal clock times it appears. Duty Cycle 10 minutes, Circulate 50% runs the fan 5 minutes, off 5 minutes and does so at the 0 and 5 on the clock. After kicking it to heat mode for 7 minutes as a test, it was turned off, and now resumes circulate on the 0 and 5 minute marks (2:00, 2:05, 2:10, 2:15)
couple weeks ago, about the time you said ADC told you that tsat’s already set up for economy recovery would be locked in that recovery after they removed the settings for it.
Ill test again…nope. still not working when mode is off.
EDIT
I did “resend settings”, and it appears to be working when OFF.
Jason, I am not sure I understand your test. Is it now circulating while in heat mode (when not heating)? After kicking it to heat mode for 7 minutes as a test, it was turned off, and now resumes circulate on the 0 and 5 minute marks
Do you mean that it resumed circulating in heat mode? Or you turned heat mode back off and it resumed?
If the new functionality is not there yet, keep us informed when they add it. Obviously there are at least a few of us that want it.
ADC put it in recent dealer announcements that Cool/Heat mode circulate is available on units with the newest firmware. Only units shipping out now basically.
Unfortunately, that does mean that existing units still need an OTA which is not ready yet, but I am told one will be available fairly soon.
