Problems solved by technology

However, it is difficult to replace the control algorithm without direct access to the unit's control parameters such as compressor on / off, fan speed, etc., or measurements sensed by the unit such as temperature, etc.
Thus, the user can set the HVAC target temperature at, for example, 30°C to stop the compressor when cooling, and 16°C to start the compressor (and vice versa when heating), but generally this operation does not provide the most Excellent result

Embodiment Construction

[0015] One technical problem addressed by the disclosed subject matter is the need to replace the control algorithms and mechanisms of the HVAC unit. In some cases, the control algorithms and mechanisms for replacing the HVAC unit may allow for more efficient control without the need to replace the entire unit. In some cases, new control algorithms and mechanisms may be used to control HVAC units without causing the HVAC to emit audible sounds or other sensory cues that may disturb persons in the vicinity of the HVAC unit. In some cases, the smart grid system may decide to change the control of the HVAC unit. Additionally or alternatively, the control algorithm may be personalized to the person currently using the HVAC unit.

[0016] Some HVAC units are adapted to emit an audible sound (eg, "beep") in response to receiving a command, such as via an infrared (IR) signal sent through a remote control. An audible sound may indicate to the user that the command has been received...

Abstract

A method and controller for Heating Ventilation or Air-Conditioning (HVAC), the controller having a processing unit and a storage device, the controller comprising: a mapping obtaining module for obtaining a mapping between a pair of a state of an HVAC unit and an action of the HVAC unit and between a measurement; an action determination component for determining an action to be taken by the HVAC unit in accordance with a current state of the HVAC unit; a measurement determination component for obtaining from the mapping a synthesized measurement that when transmitted to the HVAC unit is adapted to cause the HVAC unit to perform the action; and an HVAC communication module for transmitting the synthesized measurement to the HVAC unit.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 867,073, filed August 18, 2013, entitled "A method for seamlessly replacing a control algorithm for HVAC system using only IR commands," and filed May 14, 2014 Priority of U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 992,993 entitled "A completely external and cable free device and system that connects air conditions to the internet and uses sensory data to provide superior comfort and energy savings" The contents of are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. technical field [0003] The present disclosure relates generally to the control of a Heating, Ventilation, or Air Conditioning (HVAC) system, and more particularly to a control system for replacing an existing HVAC system. Background technique [0004] Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems are typically purchased and installed, and then used for many years. So while technology ad...
