Both Home Info and Account options must be completed before this feature
can be enabled.
The Smart Away feature depends on:
• Lennox S40 Thermostat App continuously running on the homeowner's
mobile device (smart phone or tablet) and being logged in to their account.
• Requires Wi-Fi and location settings to be enabled on the homeowner's
mobile device. Android devices must also have the location mode set to
"high accuracy." Consult the mobile device user guide for instructions.
Smart Away can also be enabled from the mobile device once the Lennox
S40 Thermostat App has been installed and launched. Go to the Menu >
Settings > Away and turn ON Smart Away. To allow the mobile device to
use this feature, turn ON participate. The Away Fence option will appear and
by default, the setting is two miles (3 km). The range for this setting is 2 to 6
miles (3.00 to 9.50 km).
Inner and Outer Away Fences
The inner Away Fence is set by the user anywhere between 2 to 6 miles
(3.00 to 9.50 km) on the mobile app. This setting can be different for each
participating mobile device. When any of the participating mobile devices are
located inside of its inner Away Fence, the system will not be in Smart Away.
The system will use the temperature set points defined by the schedule or
what was manually set. Once the inner Away Fence is set, the outer fence for
each participating mobile device will be automatically calculated by the Smart
Away algorithm.
Transition Set Points
When the closest participating mobile device is between the inner and outer
Away Fences, the thermostat will show the Smart Away indicator. The
system will use transition set points to heat or cool the home. The transition
temperature set points are automatically calculated by the Smart Away
algorithm using a combination of the home and away set points.
Away Set Points
Once all participating mobile devices have moved outside the transition
range, the thermostat will continue to show the Smart Away indicator and the
homeowner's Away set points will be used to control the system.
Example:
The away set points are 65ºF (18.5ºC) for heating and 85ºF (29.5ºC) for
cooling.
» If the Away Fence is set to two miles for all participating mobile devices
and the closest participating mobile device is within the 0-2 miles (0 to

Smart Away

3.22 km) range of the home, the system is considered home. The system
will use the set points from the schedule or what was manually set.
» If the closest participating mobile device moves into the 2.1 to 8 miles
(3.40 to 13.04 km) range, the system is considered in transition. The
system will start to either increase or reduce the heating or cooling set
point.
Once all participating mobile devices have moved beyond the 8.1 mile (9.50
km) range from the house, the system sets the set points to the Away set
points (65ºF for heating and 85ºF for cooling).
Multiple Mobile Devices
It is possible to have more than one mobile device participating in Smart
Away for this system. The Away Fence can be set to the same value or
different values for each mobile device. The thermostat will not show the
Smart Away indicator until all devices have moved past their inner Away
Fence, and the system will not reach the homeowner Away set points until all
devices have moved past their outer fence.
NOTE: Smart Away will be canceled when the system is enrolled in energy
savings with a utility provider and an energy saving event is active.
