[Solved] How to program setback (Ecodan 5.0)
@abernyte that is excellent. Very helpful. Thank you so much.
Retrofitted 11.2kw Mitsubishi Ecodan to new radiators commissioned November 2021.
14 x 500w Monocrystalline solar panels.
2 ESS Smile G3 10.1 batteries.
ESS Smile G3 5kw inverter.
@abernyte Sorry, one more question. When setting for Room, Flow or Curve is it safe to assume that Room is Auto Adapt?

@afarmery did you ever resolve the issues you were battling with? Any updates would be appreciated.
Also, what is the size (kW) of your Ecodan?

- @editor I didn't resolve the issue really. My system is an Ecodan 5kW. I understand that it might be possible using Melcloud (but I'd need to buy an Ecodan WiFi adapter). In the end, I just implement setback manually. I've got the curve calibrated nicely to give room temps of about 19.5. The stats are set to 21, as a temp limiter. When I go to bed I nudge the curve down by 1 or 2 degrees on the FTC6 panel, then nudge it back in the morning. Power consumption is pretty meagre and I can mostly satisfy it with my solar panels and battery.
