I currently have two RC80B thermostats connected to Homeseer via the HAI Thermostat plugin. One Stat is strictly used as either on of off for heat. The other Stat has a scheduled programmed into the plugin. I have basically two schedules, one for the week and one for the weekend. What seems to be happing is that the thermostat seems to not know what day of the week it is. As an example, today (Sunday) the heat setpoint should change at 8:30 AM from 62 to 68 degrees. Instead it changed at 5:15 AM, which is the time it is scheduled for during the week. I checked the instructions, and I did not see an option for setting what day of the week it is currently. I know the plugin set's the time on the stats. Does it also program what day it is?

Judd,
Currently the plug-in does not set the day of the week to the stat, you need to do this manually from the thermostat itself. I did have this working but it was causing an issue where occasionally the stat would not reset the operating hour counters which it normally does at midnight sunday night. I have not yet found a solution to this problem.

Alan,
Thanks for the information, but I don't recall seeing how to set the date in the RC80 instructions. Can you provide any help here?
Thanks again, JuddComment

Judd,
Here you go:
Press and release the Prog Key. The hour will blink, Use the arrow keys to change the hour. Press the Prog key the minutes will blink, use the arrow keys to set the minutes. Press the Prog key again to advance to day of the week. use the arrow keys to set, 1=Monday, 7=Sunday. Press the mode key when complete or wait 8 seconds for the display to return to normal.
This is in the thermostat users guide, page 7.

Thanks Alan,
I kind of overlooked that manual and was more concerned about the Installers manual.
Just to confirm, the plugin does set the time on the stat., correct?
Thanks again...

Judd,
Yes, whenever the time changes on the PC, it updates the thermostat.
