Learnt a lesson!

[Paul Gale <groups2@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just a quickie - I learnt a valuable lesson yesterday:

My node 0 and computer room has a high power extract fan and ducting built
into the room (part of a loft conversion) - it happily keeps temperatures
low even during hotter days and draws in cooler outside air.

However, the fan control was programmed into one of the CBus DLT's (LCD
graphic screen switches) just outside node 0 in the loft. Although it was
on the second page and hence more difficult to get to, a recent visitor
still managed to turn it off for me by accident, resulting in temps last
night of just over 40 Deg C in node 0 - rack temps would be higher than
that!

I didn't have active alerting on temps in there, even though I have the kit
and means to do it.

Lesson learnt!

Paul.
