By touching or clicking on any HVAC Unit or Lighting Zone Schedule icon from the
Home Page you will see the following:
1. Each HVAC Unit and Lighting Zone has a separate and distinctive time of day schedule associated with it.
2. In this case you are looking at the Kitchen HVAC Unit schedule. The green areas indicate the Occupied
Schedule and the gray areas indicate an Unoccupied Schedule. In this case the Kitchen unit is set to the
Occupied Mode of operation from 4am to12am Monday through Friday and on Saturdays and Sundays the
Occupied Mode of operations is from 4am to 1am the next day. Otherwise the unit is in the Unoccupied Mode
of operation. In Occupied Mode of operation the HVAC fan runs continuously to maintain room or area
Occupied temperature set points. In the Unoccupied Mode the fan, heating and cooling stages all cycle to
maintain Unoccupied temperature set points. See additional sections of this document for more information
on this.
3. Adjustments are easily made. See next page.

or click on the ON icon from the Home Page Schedule icon associated with the Dining Room HVAC Unit.
