What is energy Saver Mode?

Resolution:

Energy Saver Mode:
Press Energy Saver Mode to enable or disable the energy saver mode for the group. When enabled, the energy saver mode allows zones to close below their minimum. This only occurs if a zone is in the cooling mode with a zone temperature lower than the active heating setpoint, or in the heating mode and with a zone temperature greater than the active cooling setpoint. This feature limits counterproductive air entering a zone.
