I am trying to completely lock out physical or digital (ie dashboards) control of the thermostat during certain times. In other words, I want Thermostat Scheduler to be the only place anything can be changed. Is this even possible? I have a Honeywell T6 Pro Z-Wave if that matters. Thanks for any input.
I'm not sure about certain times (I'm sure a rule could be built) but what you could do is simply make it's own dashboard with just that on it and use a pin to secure the dashboard.
I use a WebCore piston to look at events and control the outcome.
My use case was my son had a visitor over once who complainted she was "cold".
We were away and she just cranked the house to 25 C.
I now monitor these events and set the temp back to what I want no matter how many times someone tries to change the temp - within reason
I have the same Thermostat and I believe the "local" (aka physical) controls could only enabled / disabled by the thermostat "installer setup options" menu.
Resurrecting an old thread, but I finally stumbled upon on obvious answer to this. The thermostat has a setting for "minimum cool temperature" and "maximum heat temperature" right there in the settings. Set those to what you like and the thermostat abusers will no longer be able to do their work. Sure, they could set it the other way all they like. But in my house that's very unlikely to happen.
