Heating Scheduler Customisable Events
The Heating Scheduler has up to 10 customisable events that can be triggered by any of the schedules or by using the manual override buttons.

- Direct temperature controls like “Set Heating to 22 C”, “Set Heating to 23 C” …
- Device specific controls like “Quick Heat” or “Heating Setback”
The events you choose to setup will mostly depend on the device you are controlling and its actions available in Actions and Events.
