1.5 Events and commands
To the guest, the thermostat appears and operates as a standard digital thermostat;
however, this device also receives entry and exit information from the door lock or
switch as well as motion detected information from the motion sensor. This information
is used to determine the occupancy status of the room and implement energy savings
strategy based on this information.
In order for the locks to send door events to the thermostats, EMI events must be
enabled. This is achieved by presenting an Enable EMI events card at each lock.
The card is one of the ZigBee configuration cards that can be issued in VISIONLINE;
see Installation manual Orion EMS for details. The following events are sent to the
thermostat from the motion sensor:
motion detected
battery status
If the lock is online, the following events are sent to the thermostat from the lock:
door open – staff card
door open – guest card; includes check-out date/time, suite rooms and
first time use
door open from inside
door closed
deadbolt thrown/released
The thermostat stores the 75 latest events in a log. Note: In addition to the relevant
events from the lock to the thermostat, additional events are sent from the lock to
the hotel system.
There are also commands sent from the thermostat to the lock (if online) and the
motion sensor:
to the lock: the optional auto-DND, which functions as privacy; no staff cards
will be able to open the door (only guest cards and emergency cards will open)
to the motion sensor: to turn off the motion sensor when the room is occupied
and the door is closed, and to turn on the motion sensor again when the door
is opened
Note: The commands from the thermostat to lock and motion sensor are not logged
as events.
