6.3 Mode Control

Modes give you control over groups of items and/or thermostat occupancy settings. When a
mode is turned ON, each of the items/thermostat occupancy settings will automatically
operate according to the schedule(s) assigned to them. For example, your installer may have
programmed one of the modes as a {Vacation mode} that you can turn on to activate
premises lights and thermostats while you are away.
Your installer should provide you with a list of the items/occupancy settings that have been
assigned to each mode (if any modes are used). Your system has a maximum of 8 modes
available.
NOTE: it is important to differentiate a "Mode" from a "Thermostat Mode" as defined in
Section 6.6—Temperature Control.
To operate items/thermostats according to modes, you must access the Mode Control menu.
To do this, first access the Home Automation menu, then press [2]. The system will prompt
you with the following:
