2.6 Controller states
Controller state is a function that makes it possible for the room HVAC system to operate with priority on
comfort or energy saving.
The following controller states are available for use and the thermostat always operates in one of them:

NNoottee!! The calculated setpoint is different when the thermostat is in Occupied state compared to
Standby state due to different hystereses. See chapter 2.2.1 for more information.
