I'm just getting around to unpacking and looking over the Elk system I bought several months ago and I am trying to understand how the Thermostat interface works. I don't think I am seeing what I expected but maybe I'm just not reading this right:
Expected-
1- Some way to get to a thermostat menu (F key or whatever)
2- A way to scroll through different thermosts such as left and right arrows
3- The display to show the temp and set point of the currently displayed thermostat
4- A way to change the set point such as up and down arrows
What I think I am reading-
1- There is a way to get to a thermostat menu
2- You can scroll through different thermostats using the up and down arrows
3- The display shows the temp but not the set point?
4- There is no way to adjust the set point?
I need someone to show me where I am misreading this. Certainly there is no point in knowing the temperature in a remote location if you can't do anything about it!
This also would crash my plans to migrate the thermostats from Stargate to the M1. I need the ability to control the thermostats from a lot of low-cost interfaces (currently using several $300 Stargate LCD keypads). I can't put $1000+ touch screens in all of these locations and I was counting on using the Elk Keypads to do this.
