摘要： An actuator in a HVAC system includes a mechanical transducer, a processing circuit, a wireless transceiver, and a power circuit. The processing circuit includes a processor and memory and is configured to operate the mechanical transducer according to a control program stored in the memory. The wireless transceiver is configured to facilitate bidirectional wireless data communications between the processing circuit and an external device. The power circuit is configured to draw power from a wireless signal received via the wireless transceiver and power the processing circuit and the wireless transceiver using the drawn power. The processing circuit is configured to use the power drawn from the wireless signal to wirelessly transmit data stored in the memory of the actuator to the external device via the wireless transceiver, wirelessly receive data from the external device via the wireless transceiver, and store the data received from the external device in the memory.

摘要： An HVAC controller is configured to automatically change between a HEAT mode and a COOL mode in accordance with a sensed temperature in the building structure, a HEAT temperature set point and a COOL temperature set point. The user is allowed to adjust the HEAT temperature set point and the COOL temperature set point, with the HVAC controller automatically adjusting one of the set points in response to the user making a change to the other of the other of the set points that violates a minimum deadband. If the user readjusts the user-adjusted set point in a way that no longer violates the minimum deadband, the HVAC controller will adjust the other set point back towards its previous setting.

摘要： An apparatus and method to selectively create a heat transfer effect and sensation of cooling within bedding on a mattress. A programmable application is accessible on a wireless network and is programmed to provide appropriate settings to attain changes over time of a space within bedding that pertain to at least one of heating the space and realizing a cooling sensation within the space. A wireless receiver is configured to receive commands in a wireless manner that are indicative of the appropriate settings provided by the programmable application to effect changes over time of the space within the bedding attributed to heat transfer with respect to the at least one of heating the space and realizing a cooling sensation within the space. The heat transfer occurs as a result of fluid flow either within a mattress or within space in bedding over the mattress.

摘要： A thermostat includes a user interface, a memory, and a processor. The memory is configured to store a profile listing including a plurality of preset profiles. Each of the plurality of preset profiles is associated with a respective temperature regulation unit. The processor is configured to perform a profile selection process when the thermostat is powered on for a first time. To perform the profile selection process, the processor is configured to display a profile selection graphical user interface in response to powering on for the first time where the profile selection graphical user interface facilitates selecting a respective profile from the plurality of preset profiles based on a temperature regulation unit connected to the thermostat, receive a selection of the respective profile based on an input provided to the user interface, and configure the thermostat according to the respective profile to facilitate controlling the temperature regulation unit connected thereto.

摘要： An air conditioner is provided with a refrigerant circuit that has a first refrigerant path to which a compressor, a first utilization-side heat exchanger, a first expansion valve, and a heat source-side heat exchanger are connected in order. A control unit controls the compressor and the first expansion valve. When the control unit receives a request for high-temperature air that temporarily increases the temperature of the hot air blown out through the first utilization-side heat exchanger, the control unit changes the control of the first expansion valve so that the temperature of a refrigerant that flows through the first utilization-side heat exchanger increases.

摘要： First and second IAQ sensors are located within a building and are configured to measure first and second IAQ parameters, respectively, the first and second IAQ parameter being the same one of: relative humidity; amount of particulate; amount of volatile organic compounds; and amount of carbon dioxide. A mitigation device is separate from an HVAC system and includes a control module configured to turn the mitigation device on and off based on the first IAQ parameter, the second IAQ parameter, and whether the HVAC system is on or off. A mitigation module is configured to selectively turn the HVAC system on and off based on the second IAQ parameter, the first IAQ parameter, and whether the HVAC system is on or off.
