The scheduling feature allows you to automate routine functions such as changing the operating mode of a room from occupied to unoccupied for heating or cooling needs and helping perform energy optimization strategies. Each schedule consists of a list of weekly scheduled events as well as a list of exception events. Each event consists of a value to write to a list of Scheduled Items at a particular time. The event by default ends at midnight unless ended earlier. The scheduling feature’s user interface provides a graphical view for configuring the schedule and displaying when events are scheduled to occur.
