Abstract:
A method for monitoring and controlling operation of a HVAC system within a structure comprises providing a thermostat configured to regulate the HVAC system. The method includes situating a plurality of battery-operated temperature monitoring devices within the structure and coupling the thermostat and each of the plurality of battery-operated temperature monitoring devices to a network. The method comprises receiving over the network a user command that includes a selection of at least one of the battery-operated temperature monitoring devices. The method includes computing at the thermostat an offset based on an evaluation of a first temperature reading of the at least one selected battery-operated temperature monitoring device relative to a second temperature reading of the thermostat. The method comprises applying the offset to the thermostat to cause the thermostat to regulate the HVAC system in view of the first temperature reading, and overriding the offset when an override condition is met.

Claim (Index 5):
The temperature monitor and control system of  claim 1 , wherein said processor is further configured to execute said instructions to determine a time-varying offset temperature, said time-varying offset temperature based at least in part on an evaluation of historical temperature readings of said temperature monitoring device relative to historical temperature readings of said thermostat.
