Abstract

Apparatus and method useful in temperature control system for a predetermined area that employs a user friendly electronic thermostat that can be programmed intuitively and which is impossible to incorrectly program. Further, the electronic thermostat needs no periodic maintenance checks because it employs a super capacitor to supply electrical energy to memory if power is temporarily lost. A large display means is responsive to the operator's programming as the programming is being performed, in addition to other times.
