Ecobee EMS - Program Editor Customization

53 Using The ecobee EMS Thermostat
Using the Editor
The Editor is a more advanced feature that allows you to
edit specic times, temperatures and furnace fan settings
for each day of the week, add additional Occupied or
Unoccupied periods throughout the day or week as well
as create customized periods.
You can select the desired program period to adjust start
times or disable the period entirely.
Select a current Heat or Cool set temperature to adjust the
temperature or fan settings for that period. Any program
period changes will automatically apply to all the days
that period runs and are shown at the top of the screen.
If the system is enabled for Auto change-over mode,
the heat and cool set temperature will automatically be
adjusted to ensure a minimum dierence is maintained.
Auto change-over mode and the minimum temperature
dierence are congurable in the installer setting.
Note: In Auto change-over mode the fan setting will revert
to whatever is configured in the Details.
Add a new Item
Select this option to add a new Occupied, Unoccupied or
custom period to the selected day(s).
Scheduling a Calendar Event
The Thermostat’s Calendar Event feature helps conserve
energy while the building is unoccupied for long
periods of time and also ensures that the building is
comfortable when it is occupied.
You can enter any number of uniquely named Calendar
Events. Other features to choose from include:
ecobee Optimize
Turn this option ON and the EMS will automatically
set the heat temperature, cool temperature, system
mode and furnace fan settings to maximize energy
conservation while the building or area is Unoccupied.
Turn this option OFF to manually congure Heat
Temperature, Cool Temperature and Fan settings while
the building or area is Unoccupied.
Is Occupied
Select Yes, if during the calendar event the building or
area will be occupied. This ensures the economizer or
other Occupancy relays are properly activated.
Heat Temperature
Programs the set temperature when the system is in
Heat mode (i.e., when the furnace is on). Set a lower
temperature to conserve energy.
Cool Temperature
Programs the set temperature when the system is in
Cool mode (i.e., when the air conditioner is on). Set a
higher temperature to conserve energy.
Fan
Toggles the fan setting between ON and Auto.
ON The fan runs all the time regardless of programming
or if there is a call for heat or cool. The fan will also run
if the System Mode is OFF.
Auto This option turns the furnace fan on but only
when the system is heating, cooling or ventilating the
building, or to satisfy the minimum fan run time as
programmed.
