The thermostat is programmed with Smart Energy features that are offered by
your energy provider. Depending on the plan offered by the energy provider, you
may be enrolled in one or both of the following:

Demand Response program
S

Demand Response Event
You may be enrolled in a Demand Response program offered by your energy
provider. Depending on peak energy demands, your energy provider may choose
to send a message to your thermostat to initiate a Demand Response Event.
The energy provider will select a start time, a duration, and either set back your
thermostat setting by a few degrees or choose to cycle the air-conditioning or
heating on and off at a safe pre-determined rate.
The effect of the event is to reduce the peak demand, resulting in more reliable
power delivery for everyone. Most people do not even notice the event is
happening.
Once the Event is completed, the thermostat is restored to the pre-event settings.
