What are peoples' initial experience with this unit, now that the only great TSTAT (CHV-TxSTAT) has been discontinued???
I have heard some varied and not-so-great reports from the field so far, and have personally had serious issues with the DIN-THSTATs (replaced them all with CHV units, no issues now...)

TIA!

Is very pretty and clients love them, i had an issue with not reporting the right temperature, sometimes too high and too low, update FW and got better but still.?

Yes, that's one the the issues that I had heard about - instability of the local temperature (Also maybe even with RTS units - yes, no??)
That is kind of a big deal...

Has anyone actually installed any of these recently??? (I know, I know...has anyone actually received any of these recently???)

If so, Has the issue with unreliable room temp readings been resolved yet??

TIA!

Figured I would bump this one.

We have (12) units on this project and every single one was getting wild temperature readings from both the internal and remote sensors.? Upgraded to 1.1.43.1 firmware, connected via Thermostat tool and set all thermostats to Remote Sensor 1 Space, all others Ommitted.? Made various other settings such as deadbands, dual auto setpoints and sent configuration to devices.? Fwiw, you need to manually accept the configurations when they are sent to the thermostat as well via on screen notification, fun.

Seems to have corrected the wild swings and error messages for the moment.? Will report back if that changes, but this sequence seems to address the issue.

Side note, for Josh.ai integrators, the HZ-THSTAT obviously does not have a 1pt_Auto_Setpoint_FB signal, so you will need to use a not on the Dual_Setpoint_FB signal.? You will also need to run your Mode_Fb into an SIO with "heat" "cool" "auto" for the output into the Josh.ai Climate module.??

Thanks for the update, XSDS!! good to know. Please keep us posted on any idiosyncrasies that you have...

When you say:
"you need to manually accept the configurations when they are sent to the thermostat as well via on screen notification, fun."
Do you mean that when you use the Config tool and send it to the TStat, that you also have to push something on the actual TStat?? I.e. if you're remote, you need a tech or client on-site to finish the job??? UGGHH! if this is what you mean...

I've done probably 20 by now

Yes.
When you upload with the config it pops up on the display "do you want to? allow the remote change" (like plugging your phone into a pc). TB said you can't get around this.
Took me forever to find the "Code" to enter advanced setup from the device. For months I thought you could only use the Config tool.

Of course it works with C-Home like it was made for it.
Simpl programming doesn't like single setpoints, I just always shown heat & cool setpoints to avoid issues.

My (2) biggest problem lately is...
? ? ?These TStats requires twisted pair to be ran to Crestrons remote sensors, with distance longer than 15'.? We run that now, but not before or during first install.? To be able to use remote sensors on non-twisted you have to use 3rd-party 10K ohm themomisteors (AprilAir works great).
? ? ?These TStats require to be set inside the wall (not designed for surface mount).? In mech rooms we've used surface mounted back boxes, but not in the field.? When replacing failing CHV-TStats (happening more, and more often) the are usually stubbed out of a plywood or 2x4 backing.

In short... I'm still waiting to be impressed.

I have been living with one for a month.
Things I like:
-pulsing lights and overall design
-screen sleep/wake
-thank God there are up/down buttons

Things that need improvement:
-option to display real outdoor temperature; currently it can only pull from cloud (which was already down 1 time)
-option do display degrees F with decimals on screen

Things I do not understand:
- the temperature swing, even on quickest setting (heat anticipation = 1) it is too much. If target is set to 73, it kicks heat on at 72.8 but doesn't stop till it is 73.6 or higher sometimes. By the time the furnace blows off remaining heat, the room often gets to 74+. My previous $30 thermostat had better control of this. I can't imagine what it does on anticipation = 6.
- Wasted screen real estate. Toggle fan on/auto could easily be on the home screen. Just give me custom UI and I will shut up.

While I do not have calibrated high accuracy thermometer, HZ-TSTAT was showing lower than other 4-5 sensors (which were all within 0.5F delta). I had to temperature offset +2F to match previous thermostat.

That is correct.? Yeah, for the remote programmers its a chore to always have their technicians on site for something like a confirmation.? Fortunately, this is probably only goin to crop its head on installation and not happen again so more than likely you would have an on site tech anyways.? But yeah, having to physically confirm a setting configuration was just a dumb thought whomever designed that one.

On another project we had a client request that the screen always be in the "dark mode" aka night mode.? I could not figure out how to make this happen outside of really jacking up stuff like faking time to it.? I don't even think it's possible unless someone can tell me otherwise, which is a really poor design "feature".? Sure going from light to dark mode automatically sounds cool, unless someone wants light or dark mode all the time..........? Having to tell millionaires and billionaires no we cant do that just does not fly in our world.

I just started playing with this TStat and the TSTAT Config Tool in toolbox...

Do others have issues with being able to connect to a stat?
I open the tool, retrieve a TStat's config, make a change, then send back...All good...
A few minutes later, I try to receive or send and the Tool will not even open the connection dialog...? ?Is this a *Feature* ???

TIA!
