14.2.3 I don't understand how the schedule works
A schedule setpoint is made up of a start time and its target heat and cool temperatures. By default, the schedule
consists of:
Four weekday setpoints (Wake, Leave, Return and Sleep)
Two weekend setpoints (Wake, Sleep)
Each day in a Foundation schedule can use two, four or no setpoints. Pioneer can use up to six setpoints per day. Each
setpoint can contain only one heat and cool temperature setting (the target temperature). For example, to use a
different heat temperature for Wake on the weekend, a different setpoint is required.
14.2.4 Why does the thermostat turn on before the scheduled setpoint time?
This is normal behavior for the default anticipation time, which is 60 minutes. The User Options menu allows you to
change the anticipation time or set it to 0 minutes, which turns off the feature.
14.2.5 Why is the blue LED on?
The blue LED indicates that the thermostat setpoint temperature (for example, the scheduled target temperature) has
been adjusted based on an energy or price conservation event.
Energy Event is displayed for the signal sent when the electric utility needs to reduce energy consumption.
Conservation is displayed for a price conservation event.
14.2.6 Why is the yellow, orange, or red LED on?
As the price of energy increases, the yellow, orange, or red LEDs light up (in that order). The red LED is lit when the
price is very high.
Note that one or a maximum of two lights can be on at the same time (for example, blue and one of the yellow, orange,
or red lights).
14.2.7 How do I temporarily override an energy event?
To create a temporary hold that overrides a voluntary event, adjust the temperature. If it is a mandatory event, you
must contact your utility to request an override.
When you override an event, the blue LED turns off and the Temporary Hold is displayed.
14.2.8 How do I permanently override energy or price events?
For energy events:
For Pioneer thermostats, on the Energy Options screen, set Energy Event to Opt-Out.
For Foundation thermostats, on the Energy Settings menu, for the Event Participation option, choose Ignore All.
(You access the Energy Settings from the Energy home screen.)
Note: Only voluntary events can be overridden.
