Remotely Controlling Venstar Thermostat

Recalling Mode/Setpoint(s)

Once you have added thermostat to a scene as a responder, you can trigger the scene and the
thermostat will return to the Scene On settings. Likewise, sending a scene off command will result in the
thermostat returning to its scene off settings.

Adjust Temperature Up or Down by a Degree

Some devices, such as RemoteLinc, have specific dim/brighten buttons which can
be used to adjust the current thermostat setpoint(s) up or down by a single degree.

To adjust your thermostat's setpoint by a single degree:

1) Recall a mode/setpoint by pressing On from the desired linked controller.

2) Tap the brighten button (to increase) or dim button (to decrease) the

thermostat’s setpoint(s).

Thermostat’s setpoint(s) will increase (or decrease) by one degree.

Note: Thermostat only responds to “incremental” brighten and dim commands.

Press-and-hold brighten and dim commands are ignored to prevent "runaway" temperature setpoints.

Removing Venstar Thermostat as an INSTEON Responder

If you are going to discontinue using the Venstar thermostat, it is very important that you remove it from
all scenes in which it is a member. Otherwise, scene controllers will retry commands repetitively and
creating network delays and broken scene memberships will remain in scene responders.

Note: Removing either an On or an Off scene responder membership will erase both the On and the Off
scene memberships.

1) Press and hold the controller’s scene button until controller beeps.

Controller’s LED will begin blinking.

If the responder is a multi-scene device, tap the scene button you wish to control until its LED is in the desired state (on or off).
