A controller equipped with a user interface having multiple-day programming capabilities, including methods of programming such devices, are disclosed. The user interface may include one or more menus or screens that can be used to program a schedule for one or more selected days during the week. An illustrative method of programming the controller may include the steps of entering a scheduling routine, selecting multiple days for schedule modification, changing the schedule parameters for one or more periods during the selected days, and then exiting the scheduling routine.

1. A computer readable medium having stored thereon in non-transitory state a program code for a mobile computing device for use in remotely programming a programmable schedule of a thermal comfort controller, the program code causing the mobile computing device to execute a method comprising: displaying on a user interface of the mobile computing device one or more screens that allow a user to select two or more days of a programmable schedule and a message that indicates multiple days can be selected by the user;allowing a user to change a set-point of the programmable schedule via the user interface of the mobile computing device, the changed set-point being applied to each of the selected two or more days; andoutputting one or more signals that reflect the selected two or more days and the changed set point. 2. The computer readable medium of claim 1, wherein the program code causes the mobile computing device to allow the user to change a set-point time of the set-point via the user interface of the mobile computing device. 3. The computer readable medium of claim 1, wherein the program code causes the mobile computing device to allow the user to change a set-point temperature of the set-point via the user interface of the mobile computing device. 4. The computer readable medium of claim 1, wherein the program code causes the mobile computing device to allow the user to change a set-point temperature and a set-point time of the set-point via the user interface of the mobile computing device. 5. The computer readable medium of claim 1, wherein the program code causes the mobile computing device to display a temperature control on the user interface of the mobile computing device for changing a set-point temperature of the set-point via the user interface of the mobile computing device. 6. The computer readable medium of claim 5, wherein the program code causes the temperature control to include a touch sensitive up button for increasing the set-point temperature and a touch sensitive down button for decreasing the set-point temperature. 7. The computer readable medium of claim 5, wherein the program code causes the temperature control to be displayed on a same screen that allows the user to select two or more days of the programmable schedule. 8. The computer readable medium of claim 5, wherein the program code causes the mobile computing device to display a time control on the user interface for changing a set-point time of the set-point, wherein both the time control and the temperature control are displayed on a same screen that allows the user to select two or more days of the programmable schedule. 9. The computer readable medium of claim 1, wherein the program code causes the mobile computing device to display a time control on the user interface of the mobile computing device for changing a set-point time of the set-point via the user interface of the mobile computing device. 10. The computer readable medium of claim 9, wherein the program code causes the time control to include a touch sensitive up button for advancing the set-point time and a touch sensitive down button for retarding the set-point time. 11. The computer readable medium of claim 9, wherein the program code causes the time control to be displayed on a same screen that allows the user to select two or more days of the programmable schedule. 12. The computer readable medium of claim 1, wherein the program code causes the mobile computing device to display a screen that allows the user to select two or more days of the programmable schedule, wherein such screen includes a separate physical region on the display for each of Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, with an indicator displayed on or adjacent to each of the separate physical regions of the two or more days that are selected by the user. 13. The computer readable medium of claim 12, wherein the program code causes each of the separate physical regions that correspond to Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday to include a touch sensitive button on the screen, wherein touching the touch sensitive button switches between selecting the corresponding day and deselecting the corresponding day. 14. The computer readable medium of claim 12, wherein the program code causes the indicator to be displayed on or adjacent to each of the separate physical regions of those two or more days selected by the user, and is not displayed for those days that are deselected. 15. The computer readable medium of claim 1, wherein the program code causes the mobile computing device to allow the user to change the set-point using the same screen that allows the user to select two or more days of the programmable schedule. 16. A mobile computing device for use in remotely programming a programmable schedule of a thermal comfort controller, wherein the programmable schedule includes two or more days and at least one set-point for each of the two or more days, the mobile computing device comprising: a user interface including a display;a controller coupled to the user interface, the controller programmed to provide a screen on the display of the user interface of the mobile computing device that allows a user to select two or more days of the programmable schedule and that displays a message indicating that multiple days can be selected by a user;the controller further allowing a user to change a set-point via the user interface of the mobile computing device, the changed set-point being applied to each of the selected two or more days of the programmable schedule; andthe controller outputting from the mobile computing device one or more signals that reflect the selected two or more days and the changed set point. 17.
