The 3 User Buttons provide the ability to:

1) Select a scene for the tN4 system

The User Buttons allow users to select the scene of the tN4 system. Each of the 3 
User Buttons is programmed by the installer to select a particular scene on the tN4 
system. The temperature of each tN4 thermostat in the system is pre-programmed 
by the installer for each of the scenes. This allows users to change the temperature 
of all the thermostats using a single button.

tN4 thermostats and tN4 setpoint controls must have Scenes turned to “On” in order 
to respond to scene changes on the User Switch.

When a User Button is pressed, the green LED under that button turns on and 
remains on until a new scene is selected, or the time for the selected temporary 
scene expires.

When the current selected scene on the tN4 network is the same as the scene that 
the User Button is programmed for, the button turns green.

When a selected scene is “On” and that User button is pressed again, the scene is 
changed based on the following table:

Application Examples:

Allows residential users to change the scene to 2 (Away) while going on vacation, 
or select an occupied scene while entertaining guests.

Allows commercial users a simple way to allow staff to override the night setback 
/ setup schedule on the tN4 system.
