Energy Saving with Daikin

The BRC1E61 controllers Energy Saving features

Many know I used to work for Daikin , I really like the way the Japanese think about how to improve constantly
When the BRC1E61 controller came out, they also incorporated some features which quite frankly negate the use of a centralised controller for small scale installations.

Up to that point , a centralised  contoller was needed to reset temperatures or fix temperature limits. Now it is embedded into single one on one systems. 
Here is what is really great about this new controller

It has an energy saving feature which allows the user to do the following...

1 - Temperature Limits.. .. for both heating and cooling the controler can fix the range of selectable temperatures.

​2 - Temperature Auto-Reset.  Here you can select a preferred standard setpoint for heating and cooling,  which will automaticaly reset to the preset temperature after a time period has expired. This way people can adjust setpoints but it will always reset to the preferred standard setting.

Now that is a really great idea... 

This eliminates the need for higher host control for basic requirements with typical settings. 

Note.. If centralised control is fitted later , it will overide the internal settings. But thats the way it should be.
