hello all i am new of using EMS i need to control hybrid system for heating and domestic hot water the hybrid system is air source heat pump and gas condensing boiler the system has three operation modes depending on the outdoor ambient temperature. 1-Heat Pump Only Mode: >3 degrees C 2- Hybrid Mode (AWSHP and GCB): 3 to - 2 degrees C 3- Boiler Only Mode: <-2 degrees C when the heat pump only working the supply temperature is 60C and when the hybrid system or gas boiler only the supply temperature is 70C i tried using below code, the ems code not working properly by checking edd file the signal and the commands for the actuators are out but the control of the heat pump and gas boiler not working as needed sometimes the heat pump work when the temperature is below -2 and sometimes the gas boiler working above 3 degrees and the setpoint doesn't change what could be the problem

hello all i am new of using EMS i need to control hybrid system for heating and domestic hot water the hybrid system is air source heat pump and gas condensing boiler the system has three operation modes depending on the outdoor ambient temperature. 1-Heat temperature.

1. Heat Pump Only Mode: >3 degrees C 2- C
2. Hybrid Mode (AWSHP and GCB): 3 to - 2 degrees C 3- C
3. Boiler Only Mode: <-2 degrees C C

when the heat pump only working the supply temperature is 60C and when the hybrid system or gas boiler only the supply temperature is 70C i tried using below code, the ems code not working properly by checking edd file the signal and the commands for the actuators are out but the control of the heat pump and gas boiler not working as needed sometimes the heat pump work when the temperature is below -2 and sometimes the gas boiler working above 3 degrees and the setpoint doesn't change what could be the problem
