@zacca said in Rules for central heating using Chronotherm plugin:

Thank you Zacca! I found a good solution for interconnect the 3 main valves, the heat floor pump and the boiler.
Your plugin worked all winter in my home quite well!
The only error i get in ever night at 00:00 is this:
… error [pimatic]: Error in VariablePredicateHandler: Can not compare strings with >=!

Can yoyu explain me what is wrong?
