Estimation Function

The estimation function work by calculating the water used each day and recording the results into a table. The table contains 13 weeks worth of readings and as new values are added to the bottom of the table the oldest values are removed from the top. Each time a new day value is added, the 13 week Average Daily Use is re- calculated. Having the 13 week rolling average allows the daily average to change as the water usage changes throughout the seasons of the year.

 The table containing the daily usages can be accessed from the Update Firmware screen, by clicking the Edit Raw Prediction Data button.

• The default values, when the unit is set to factory defaults is 10cm/day.

• As a new days use is calculated all the values for that day are shifted up one row and the new value is added to the bottom row for that day. The value from the top row removed.
• If it is known that the daily water use is higher or lower than what has been recorded in the table, any of the daily values can be edited from this screen and the Average Daily values will be re-calculated and used in all the estimation displays.
