Abstract

A grahical user interface system for a thermal comfort controller. The user interface system has a central pocessing unit (100) coupled to a memory (300) and a touch sensitive display unit (200). The memory stores a temperature schedule data structure and perhaps a temperature history data stuctures (500). The temperature schedule data structure (400) is made up of at least one set-point. The temperature history data structure is made up of at least one Actual-Temperature-Point (700). The display (200) presents the set-points and/or the Actual-Temperature-Points (700). One representation of the display is a graphical step-function. The user uses a finger or stylus (240) to program the set-points by points and dragging a portion of the step-function.
