Each device has a number of channels which automatically get assigned to a zone when the device is assigned to the zone. These are the different parts of the device which the system can interact with, such as receiving the measured temperature.
It is possible to add some channels to a zone, such as if you want to share the measured temperature of your hot water tank between your boiler heated hot water zone and your electric immersion backup zone. For more information on assigning individual channels, see the 'Adding New Devices' chapter of the User Manual.
Output On/Off: The ability to read and switch the relay of a device, such as a Genius Smart Plug. This should not be added to more than 1 zone.
Doing so will cause the device to no longer be controlled by the Genius Hub accurately, possibly damage the device and void the warranty. |
