Gareth,
I agree with you regarding computer control, and prefer to keep my HA in
dedicated controllers. However I was very interested in Simon's post
recently about the heatmiser thermostats. These have 4 temperature/time
zones for mon-fri and 4 for the weekend. They can also be remotely
controlled via an rs485 link. My plan is to use the stat as a stand
alone boiler controller, then allow PC/comfort to vary the set point as
required. If the HA goes down for any reason, then the stat will simply
revert controlling the heating as per it's settings, and you loose any
additional HA features until the system is up again.
In theory it will work...
Iain
