Plot thermostat hours on per day vs temp

Hi,

I have been trying various ways, and reading a lot, but can't see a way to do this. My thermostat devices have a variable of HeatisOn = True/False. I would like to ply the cumulative minutes and hours that the heating is on each day, and reset each midnight. Ie plot this as a histogram alongside the temp reading and the set point reading.

Cheers

Plot thermostat hours on per day vs temp

try:

1. count : will count how often it is 1(=true) testing once a minute, no reset, will continue to grow / bin (5 minutes/ 1 hour/ 1 day bins)

2. consumption (any type, they are just names), then set reset to 1/day and cost =1. that should do exactly what you want.

hope that helps

there are various other options = reset 1/week month/// and reset at specific point in time e.g. 6/15, 7/30 = you billing period.. but that requires some patience to setup.
and you could also use variable cost e.g. if consumption> 3 cost = 12 cents > 50: 50cents ..
and cost for daytime periods.
