OverrideUPRP Action

This action will command the thermostat to “override” mode and send occupied settings to the thermostat for each scheduled event.  The override timer can be set to a fixed duration or it can be set to the calculated event duration.  For durations that are longer than the maximum duration available in the thermostat, additional override commands will be sent to keep the thermostat overridden throughout the duration of the entire event.
