Configure a device

The configure procedure tells the system how to use the device.

Press configure on the device either in the manage devices screen or in the scan result page.

Choose a name for the device. The device is usually listed either in the room or with room information.

We recommend using a name that distinguishes similar devices within the room.

Set the room for the device.

Configure each of the device functions

To configure a device function:

Set the name of the function.
This field is only shown if the device has multiple functions that are similar. E.g a for wall socket with two outlets you must name each outlet in order to distinguish them from each other.

Set the “Usage” and “Usage option” settings

The “Usage” setting determines if the function is connected to the system logic:

Light – The function is used as a light source or light controlling device in the room and is controlled in the “lights” tab of the room.

Climate – The function is used to automatically control the temperature in the associated room and is controlled under the “climate” tab of the room.

Security – The function is part of the security system of the room. Security sensors are shown under the “security” tab of a room.

Generic – The function is not tied to any of the system logic but is controlled manually by the user. The function is found in the “generic” tab of the room.
