    How do I override or clear the "leave" and "return" functions on my thermostat
    I just installed a Honeywell TRH7500 programmable thermostat. The installation went smoothly, but I cannot figure our how to override/clear the "leave/return" schedules.

    The thermostat comes with 4 daily program settings: wake, leave, return, sleep. I only want to use wake and sleep but I can't seem to get rid of the leave and return programs. I can change their times, but I want to ignore them altogether. I've looked in the manual but can't find the answer to this problem.

    Thank you for any assistance you can offer.

    Turns out you can't actually override any of the daily program settings... but you can accomplish the same thing by setting the leave and return temps to the same as your awake temp (so all 3 of those program settings function identically in terms of the temperature you set). Mission accomplished, and I knew I could do that, but it takes some time to scroll though all the steps to make this happen. They could improve the unit by allowing you to select which of the 4 programmable settings you wish to use, and then only have to modify the ones you choose.
