To obtain an estimate of the ambient temperature, the device measures the flow temperature every 5 minutes and performs a moving average across the last 30 minutes. It then performs the following computation:

...

It is recommended to use an external temperature sensor to measure the room temperature, and to send the room temperature to the MLR003 device in FPORT 0x01.

In the following situations, the device will estimate the room temperature:

• The device has never received an external sensor temperature

• The last communicated external sensor temperatur was “0”

• It has been a long time since the device last received communication of an external sensor temperature (see FPORT 0x09 for adjustment of this expiry time)

• The device has become disconnected from the Gateway

See FPORT 0x08 for the Temperature Estimation Algorithm, and for adjustment of the algorithm.

To achieve the instructed room temperature, the device applies the PI algorithm.If a Room Temperature was provided through a Port 0x01 Downlink within the last 5 minutes, the device uses this; otherwise, it uses the estimated room temperaturePID algorithm.

The device considers moving the motor every 5 minutes.
