Claim Text:
1. An HVAC control system, comprising: a first system controller associated with a first HVAC system and configured to control the first HVAC system, wherein the first system controller is located in a first zone conditioned by the first HVAC system; and a second system controller associated with a second HVAC system and configured to control the second HVAC system, wherein the second system controller is located in a second zone conditioned by the second HVAC system; wherein the first system controller is selectively operable to control the second HVAC system; wherein the first system controller comprises a user interface configured to simultaneously display (1) a first zone indicator, a first condition, and a first operating parameter of the first zone associated with the first HVAC system and (2) a second zone indicator, a second condition, and a second operating parameter of the second zone associated with the second HVAC system; wherein the user interface is configured to selectively receive an input to adjust at least one of the (1) at least one of the first condition and the first operating parameter of the first zone associated with the first HVAC system and (2) at least one of the second condition and the second operating parameter of the second zone associated with the second HVAC system to cause (1) the first system controller to operate the first HVAC system in accordance with at least one of the adjusted first condition and the adjusted first operating parameter when the simultaneously displayed at least one of the first condition and the first operating parameter of the first zone associated with the first HVAC system is adjusted, wherein at least one of the adjusted first condition and the adjusted first operating parameter comprises a different value with respect to the second condition and the second operating parameter, respectively, and (2) the second system controller to display on a user interface of the second controller at least one of the adjusted second condition and the adjusted second operating parameter and operate the second HVAC system in accordance with at least one of the adjusted second condition and the adjusted second operating parameter when the simultaneously displayed at least one of the second condition and the second operating parameter of the second zone associated with the second HVAC system is adjusted, wherein at least one of the adjusted second condition and the adjusted second operating parameter comprises a different value with respect to the first condition and the first operating parameter, respectively.
