Shed 
The computer setpoint override will continue until SHED from communications occurs 
or the controller is placed into monitor mode through communications. Doing periodic 
SLAVE READS within the shed time will allow the override to continue until 
communication is stopped and shed time elapses. Does not apply to IR communications. 
ATTENTION 
0 Shed (code 79) allows the override to continue indefinitely or until the reset shed timer 
register address 1B90 is written using function code 6 or register address 7F using 
function code 21. Any data value can be written because it is ignored.
