Issue
We cannot get a SE8000 / SE7000 Room Controller’s occupancy command to follow the MPM’s schedule. The controller’s display always displays unoccupied even when the schedule is set to occupied.
Environment
SmartStruxure Lite Multi-Purpose Manager
SE8xxx/SE7xxx Room controller
SE8000/SE7000 Series
SER8300, SE8300, SE8350, SE8600, SE8650
SE7200, SE7300, SE7600, SE76x7
Viconics branding VT8000/VT7000 Series
Cause
When the MPM's scheduler is in "unoccupied" mode (outside business hours), the default value is 0. However that does not match any of the values of the "Occupancy cmd" parameter in the Room Controller
Resolution
The "Default Value" in the MPM's Scheduler object SCH1 must be changed to "3" to match the unoccupied value in the Room Controller.
The Occupancy command point for each Room controller must also be ticked in the points list in the Scheduler object
For SE8000 PIR ready models, set the "Occupancy src" (Occupancy Source) parameter to "Motion"
The SE8000 /SE7000 Room Controller will now follow the MPM’s schedule.
