GETTING STARTED
-
A schedule consists of periods, which are segments of time with defined names, temperature setpoints, start and end times, and days when they are active. The settings for each period determine your system's behavior during that specific segment of time. Each day can have a minimum of 1 period and a maximum of 4.
-
When Schedule Settings are first enabled, default periods are defined by the system: Sleep, Home, Away, and Evening.
-
To create a schedule that fits your exact needs, you may need to create new periods, modify the existing periods, or even have multiple schedules that you can load as needed.
-
The steps and videos below will walk you through creating, configuring, and saving a new schedule, loading saved schedules, removing periods, and deleting schedules.
