The security settings on your Honeywell digital thermostat can be used to prevent unauthorized changes to system settings. If you don't want children and other users to adjust previously saved cooling and heating settings, enabling the security lock can prove very useful. Honeywell thermostats also allow you to change the lock settings, and either restrict access to settings completely, or allow partial access to settings. Once enabled, you or any other user must enter a four-digit password in order to make changes.
