Abstract
A heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) includes a processor and a plurality of sensors. The plurality of sensors can collect a first set of data indicative of environmental conditions of a structure in which the HVAC control device is located. The HVAC control device can control operational settings of an HVAC system that can supply conditioned air to the structure and operate the HVAC system in a default mode. The HVAC control device can also receive a second set of data collected by one or more sensors of a secondary input device and receive a signal from the secondary input device. Additionally, the HVAC control device can implement an override mode of the control device based on the signal. Implementation of the override mode effectuates a change in the operational settings of the HVAC system.
