Scheduling
About Schedule
TC300 enables you to plan operations based on the time of day and holidays.
This scheduling structure allows you to control day-to-day operations with the
standard schedule. The holiday schedule controls days or times when a facility is
typically unoccupied. The event schedule controls periods outside normal occupied
times. The holiday schedule overrides the standard schedule and the event schedule
overrides the holiday and standard schedules within a schedule set.
Schedules use the setpoint configuration of Occupied, Unoccupied, or Standby
modes.
Occupied mode treats the building space as occupied and configured with comfort
setpoints.
Unoccupied mode treats the building space as not occupied and configured with
energy savings setpoints.
Standby mode setpoints are configured in a way that the setpoints can quickly
change to the Occupied mode when switched. Standby mode setpoint saves energy
higher than occupied mode and lesser than the Unoccupied mode.
Temporary mode allows the user to change the temperature setpoints of the
Occupied mode after the user switches to the temporary mode from the Occupied
mode. This is not possible in Unoccupied mode and Standby mode.
When a schedule uses the Occupied mode but the Occupancy sensor reads
unoccupied, then the thermostat switches automatically to the Standby mode. In
other scenarios, the thermostat follows the schedule status and the occupancy
sensor's value has no impact on it.
How schedules works
When you set up schedules, it is important to understand the relationship of the
schedules in the schedule set and how to use each one.
• Standard schedule: Use the weekly schedule to program occupied and standby
periods for each of the week.
• Holiday schedule: Use holiday schedules to set holidays that "float" or occur on a
specific date each year. Up to 10 holidays can be created.
