Mode is supported in smart rules:

doc_tap_Modecontroller;

Partial support for Mode is also in:

...

doc_tap_Modesun;

...

doc_tap_Mediumactuator;

Medium is e.g. water running in pipes, and you can select between 2 types plus dynamic switching based on reed contact or switch device:

Table below shows behaviour of hysteresis and PID smart rules based on type of Medium and value of Mode switch:

doc_tap_Tableswitch;

	Medium: HOT	Medium: COLD
	doc_tap_MHOT;	doc_tap_MCOLD;
Heating Mode	Output actuator turns ON when desired temperature is higher than actual temperature	Output actuator is held in OFF state regardless of temperature
doc_tap_HeaM;	doc_tap_ONhigher;	doc_tap_OFFstatet;
Cooling Mode	Output actuator is held in OFF state regardless of temperature	Output actuator is turned on when desired temperature is lower than actual temperature
doc_tap_CoolMo;	doc_tap_OFFstatetemper;	doc_tap_ Outputactuatorlow;
Heating & Cooling Mode	Output actuator is turned on when desired temperature is higher than actual temperature	Output actuator is turned on when desired temperature is lower than actual temperature
doc_tap_HCMod;	doc_tap_ Outputahigher;	doc_tap_ Outputaclower;
Off (No heating, no cooling)	Output actuator is held in OFF state regardless of temperature	Output actuator is held in OFF state regardless of temperature
doc_tap_Noheat;	doc_tap_oaoffs;	doc_tap_oaoffstate;

In order for the system to automatically switch the modes, add smart rule Equation for the multi-value switch Mode.

Example:

doc_tap_EquationMode;

...

doc_tap_Dynamicw;

...

There are two possible scenario:

1. Heat pump is in automatic mode and switches between hot and cold automaticaly by itself. TapHome just reads the reed contact with the actual type of medium.

...

doc_tap_IfCooling;

...

doc_tap_Thermostatstep;

2. Heat pump is in manual mode and the TapHome switches between hot and cold using output relays that control auxillary inputs on heat pump.
