The
/Auto button on the room unit can be used like an
occupancy button.
The room user can use it to switch the HVAC system
"on" or "off".
The room unit is connected to the PPS2 interface on the room controller.
It displays the effective room operating mode in a simplified form, and can also be used
to change it.
State Description
Auto
Effective room operating mode is Comfort
Reduced mode in the room, depending on the Priority 1 and 2
influences as well as the Room operating mode schedule:
The effective room operating mode is Precomfort, Economy or
Protection.
• The change in the effective room operating mode is event-driven, the key factor
being the point at which the button on the room unit is pressed.
• The Effective occupancy or Temporary Comfort mode (both Priority 3) can cause the
effective room operating mode to change again  the last command always applies.
The table below shows the effect of the
/Auto button on the effective room operating
mode of the room controller.
