Thermostat control layouts

I’d love to see what others have done. My thermostat dashboard is pretty boring.

Also, I seem to remember some discussion about energy mode? I don’t see the ability to display or control energy mode (Trane ESM) in HomeWave.

Add a “Thermostat settings” control, like the square ones you have there to set the thermostat mode. Open its properties and at the top you’ll see “Controlling: Mode”. Click the blue arrow (or i sign) and you’ll be able to switch to controlling Energy Mode or Fan (if your thermostat supports it).

Ahh, great, thanks! I thought I’d seen it somewhere…

EDIT: No dice! It’s not there. I just get “fan” and “mode,” nothing related to Energy Mode. I have a Trane thermostat that definitely supports ESM.

I’d still love to see what layouts other users have put together.

Got it, thanks. I notice that the Trane device does not expose the eco mode in the standard uPnP HVAC_UserOperatingMode1 service like other thermostats do. There is a reported value for ModeStateForEnergy in a MCV specific service, but I’m not sure if that’s the right one. Does anyone know how the eco mode on the Trane thermostats are set through uPnP services?
