    摘要: The present disclosure relates to thermostatically controlling a HVAC system according to a temperature program that is at least partially responsive to observed or predicted changes in the type or degree of occupant activity. For example, a thermostat may process collected occupant activity data in conjunction a temperature program to identify a particular temperature setpoint that is associated with a statistically detectable change between a first and a second type or degree of occupant activity. During a time window that includes the identified temperature setpoint, if the thermostat detects the change between the first and the second type or degree of occupant activity in the occupant activity data, the thermostat may responsively implement the temperature associated with the identified temperature setpoint, regardless of whether the current time is prior to, the same as, or subsequent to the time associated with the identified temperature setpoint.

    摘要: The current application is directed to intelligent controllers that initially aggressively learn, and then continue, in a steady-state mode, to monitor, learn, and modify one or more control schedules that specify a desired operational behavior of a device, machine, system, or organization controlled by the intelligent controller. An intelligent controller generally acquires one or more initial control schedules through schedule-creation and schedule-modification interfaces or by accessing a default control schedule stored locally or remotely in a memory or mass-storage device. The intelligent controller then proceeds to learn, over time, a desired operational behavior for the device, machine, system, or organization controlled by the intelligent controller based on immediate-control inputs, schedule-modification inputs, and previous and current control schedules, encoding the desired operational behavior in one or more control schedules and/or sub-schedules.

    摘要: Systems and methods are described for controlling fan-only cooling. A first phase of a first cooling cycle may be initiated in an enclosure using an air conditioning system having a compressor and a fan that passes air over an evaporator coil. The first phase may include activation of the compressor and activation of the fan. A relative humidity may be measured within the enclosure during the first phase of the first cooling cycle. Subsequent to the first phase and in response to the relative humidity being determined to be below a threshold relative humidity, a second phase of the first cooling cycle may be initiated during which the fan is activated but the compressor is not activated.
