Does anyone make a thermostat that can be set by code only? We want to set the stats with a password, so no one but the owner can change the temperature.
Please Help and Thanks, Lou C

One brand is Lux. In another forum I see many comments from people that have accidently activated the lockout.
The problme with a simple lockout is that anyone can look up the internet.

A-holes. Hey every group has to have one. And I have been elected to be the one. I should make that my tagline.
I had this same request, for rentals so tentants can play with the heat but not mess with the programing.. they can make it warmer (up to a preset) but after 2 hours it goes back to the program.
