Thermostat Button Lockout

This feature partially or completely disables the buttons of the thermostat. For example, the MODE and FAN status can be set and then locked, so the buttons will not allow those settings to be changed. Additionally, this can be set to allow changes for a limited time and amount of change. For example, you can limit temperature changes to ±3°, if desired (FIG. 34).
