Schedules and Modes - Is the wiser concept correct?

[Lactophobe]

The way I would like to have schedules arranged is to have a hierarchy
Schedule which contains
  Rooms or devices which contains a heating plan...
      Days of the week which contains
           Settings by time period

So I could have a schedule called 'AWAY' (same as present "Away" mode)
    That includes all rooms
         each room has a plan, "each day", "all day", 6 degree C (frost protection)

I could have a schedule 'Winter'
   list each room, and for each room have a plan of days, times , heat settings (that is the same as the current way schedules work)

I could have another schedule 'Summer'
   list each room, and for each room have a plan that is different from the winter plan

There would be no requirement for 'Modes' - they could be migrated into schedules.

A schedule could be copied to create a new schedule or replace an old one.

Hi @Lactophobe ,

Thanks for your post.

Per default, the Wiser system creates a schedule per room. But you can group several rooms into a schedule. For example: you can create a bedroom schedule and set all bedrooms to follow it.

If some schedulers are seasonal, you can also create a "bedroom Schedule spring" for example and assign the rooms to it when you need. The system can hold several schedules and you are free to assign the rooms them at the moment it makes sense for you.

Lets start from the bottom and work up

I add a device - A radiator thermostat - I want to give the thermostat a name and to add it to a room. Presently the devices are given a "Location" which gets later referred to as a "Room".

I might have physical room "Living Room" - This contains "Front Radiator", "Rear Radiator" and "Living Room Thermostat".  I cannot name the devices, so when batteries need refreshing - I cannot be sure which device needs the batteries.  

Now scheduling - If I have a schedule "Bedroom Schedule Spring" to activate, I will need to de-activate "Bedroom Schedule Winter" - which cannot be done, all I can do is remove it.  Presently it would be easier to just have "Bedroom Schedule" and to alter the timer programming.

If we cannot have seasonal or named set of schedules, can we have
1. Named Devices (where they are in the room, or what they control)
2. Remove the confusion in the app of 'Location' and 'Room'
3. Be able to flag schedules as "Active" or "Inactive"
