Temperature/humidity display
. This indicates the current temperature (and humidity if an
indoor humidity sensor is connected).
•
The units (C or F) are defined by the user using the graphic interface (through the local
server, or the web, or handheld interface).
•
If an indoor humidity sensor is connected, the display will alternate between the
temperature and the humidity.
10 –
ALT
field. This indicates that the temperature sensor used to drive the thermostat is the
alternate sensor, either located in the Mediator or in an external temperature sensor.
•
If lit, the temperature in the temperature field (9) will reflect the temperature at the
alternate sensor. Otherwise, the temperature reflects the sensor located at the thermostat.
•
The selection of the temperature sensor to use is by default at the Thermostat. A setting in
the web page or mediator is where the user can change to the ALT sensor.

Signal Strength
. Status field for connection with the mediator
•
Shows the signal strength of the connection with the Mediator, from 0 to 3 bars.
•
If the thermostat loses communications with the Mediator, no bar is shown and the antenna
will flash. In this case, all control is local to the thermostat.
12 –
BATTERY
field. There are three fill levels, corresponding to the strength of the batteries.
When it starts flashing, please replace the batteries soon.

HIGH COST (High $)
. Indicates a spike in electricity cost
•
If the electric utility company indicates that current electricity prices are about to spike or
already high, then this field will flash until the prices come back down below the high cost
level.
•
This field is only used if there is some way to receive the information on utility pricing, and
the utility has a variable price program.
•
The user can define the high price limit using MyEnergyDomain.com in the thermostat setup
section. For example, it could be defined as anything above $.30/kwh, or 2x the base rate.
