Direct Control: Using Temperature Sensors without thermostat schedules
Select one or more Temperature Sensors to directly control your HVAC system when there is no thermostat schedule set.
When clicking [Remote Temperature Sensor], a window appears. From here, one or more Temperature Sensors can be selected. The HVAC system monitors the average temperature reported by the selected sensors and keeps the average steady at the target temperature.
Example: The nighttime target temperature is 70 degrees, and all bedroom Temperature Sensors are selected. The average temperature across the bedrooms is maintained at 70 degrees.

Adding Temperature Sensors to thermostat schedules
Make thermostat schedules even more precise by assigning one or more Temperature Sensors to the Temperature Presets. For example, match the bedroom Temperature Sensor to the Sleep Preset, or the family room Temperature Sensor to the Home Preset. That way, the system is able to cool the right rooms in the house to the target temperature at the times they are in use.
To get started, click [Details] on the Thermostat card and then click Schedules. Schedules can then be edited from this page.
