using the AC again. I prefer to make that switch manually but would like to automate the

rest as much as possible. All programs check to see if the thermostat is in COOL or HEAT

mode, so if I'd like I can switch the thermostat to OFF or one of the PROGRAM modes to

avoid the automation I've setup on the ISY.

The next program checks to see if the office lights are off and if the thermostat is in COOL

mode. If they are, and it's outside of normal work hours, the program will increase the

setpoint of the thermostat to save energy. I don't base vacancy only on status of lights,

because there are times during the day that we might run out for a quick bite to eat or

simply not need the lights on. But if the lights are ON, even after hours, I don't adjust the

setpoint because we're clearly in the office working.

I also include a 2-minute wait before adjusting the thermostat in case I'm working late and

simply turned off the lights briefly for some reason.
