Master Controller (Building Temperature Control) in Facilisight Portal

The Unoccupied Zone Setback determines how much zone temperatures may drift from occupied setpoints during unoccupied periods.

This feature helps reduce energy consumption while maintaining acceptable conditions when spaces are not in use.

Example:

• Unoccupied Zone Setback: 5°F

Validation Report (Outside Building Limits): 

• A validation message appears, highlighting the impacted site(s) and indicating the schedule entries that fall outside the configured building limits.

• Click Re-Edit to return to the Overwrite Existing Zone Schedule page.

• Scroll down to the Temperature Settings section.

• Update the Heating User Limits so that they fall outside the allowed building limits.

• Click Save Schedule.

Validation Report (Outside Heating Limits):

• A validation message appears when the configured schedule contains heating setpoints that fall outside the allowed building heating limits.
• The report identifies the impacted site(s), affected time slots, current schedule values, and the permitted building limits. 
• Review the reported violations, and then click Re-Edit to modify the schedule and bring it within the configured building constraints.

• Click Re-Edit to return to the Overwrite Existing Zone Schedule page.

• Update the Cooling User Limits so that they fall outside the allowed building limits.

• Click Save Schedule.

Validation Report (Outside Cooling Limits):

• A validation message appears when the configured schedule contains cooling setpoints that fall outside the allowed building cooling limits. 
• The report identifies the impacted site(s), affected time slots, current schedule values, and the permitted building limits. 
• Review the reported violations, and then click Re-Edit to modify the schedule and bring it within the configured building constraints.

| Validation Report (Recurring Schedules)

To access Recurring Schedule:

• Select the desired schedule from the Recurring Schedules list.

• Click Edit Schedule.

• Extend the occupied time slot beyond the site's configured Building Occupancy period.

• Click Save Schedule.

• The system validates the schedule against the Building Occupancy settings.

Note: If any occupied period extends beyond the permitted Building Occupancy hours, the schedule cannot be saved, and a validation report is displayed.
 

• Click Re-Edit in the validation pop-up.

• Move the time slot to the previous slot. 

• Update the Heating and Cooling User Limits so that they fall outside the allowed building limits.

• Click Save Schedule.

• The system validates the schedule against the configured building heating and cooling limits.

Note: If the configured heating and cooling value is outside the permitted range, the schedule cannot be saved and a validation report is displayed.

The validation pop-up includes the following information:

• Site Name: Displays the site where the violation occurs. 
• Impacted Slots: Identifies the affected schedule time slots. 
• Current Schedule Value: Displays the heating and cooling value configured in the schedule. 
• Allowed Building Limits: Displays the permitted heating and cooling range configured for the building. 
• Re-Edit: Returns the user to the schedule editor to correct the temperature settings.

To access Recurring Schedule (Not associated with any Zones):

• Select the desired schedule from the Recurring Schedules list.

• Click Edit Schedule.

• Extend the occupied time slot beyond the site's configured Building Occupancy period.

• Click Save Schedule.

• If a recurring schedule is not associated with any zones (that is, no zones have been added through Add Zones to This Schedule), the system does not perform Building Occupancy validation for that schedule. As a result, users can modify the occupied time slots beyond the configured Building Occupancy limits, and the schedule can still be saved successfully. Refer to below image. 

To access Recurring Schedule (Associated with new Zones addition):

• Click Add Zones to This Schedule.

• Select the required Scope.

• Select the zone(s) to which you want to apply the recurring schedule.

• Click Apply. The system validates the recurring schedule against the configured Building Occupancy settings.

• If any occupied time slot falls outside the permitted Building Occupancy window, a validation pop-up is displayed.

• If a recurring schedule is not associated with any zones, the system allows the schedule to be saved even when its occupancy period exceeds the configured Building Occupancy limits. However, once the schedule is applied to one or more zones, the system validates the schedule against the Building Occupancy settings of the selected site.

The validation pop-up includes the following information:

• Site Name: Displays the site where the violation occurs.
• Building Occupancy Validation: Indicates that the shared recurring schedule is outside the configured Building Occupancy limits.
• Schedule Outside By: Lists the affected days and time periods that exceed the allowed occupancy window.
• An OK button to acknowledge the validation message.
