Lights
No lights are turned on without a human-initiated action, only off The main dimmer switch in the office and bedroom can be turned on/off by tapping the screen (glass display) instead of pressing +/- (takes a moment to gradually brighten/dim lights until on/off) The secondary lights in the office (smaller ceiling fixture) and bedroom (standing lamp) are sync’d with the main dimmer switches via automation when turning on/off. They can be a bit finicky if toggled on/off rapidly, so if they didn’t do what you wanted, just cycle the main switch once more There is a taped light switch near the kitchen entrance — this sends power to the smaller living room ceiling fixture, don’t use it as an on/off! The office lights are automated around “daytime vibes” (brighter, whiter) and “evening vibes” (yellow). The “daylight white” upward-facing LED (office, shelftop) is connected via smart plug. It will turn off automatically around sunset The secondary ceiling fixture will be white during the daytime, and yellow after sunset There are a variety of battery powered nightlights: 3 on the bedroom stairs, 1 in the bathroom, 1 in the hallway, and 1 atop the bed platform. The last one is meant to be used like a lantern if you are trying to do stuff in the dark, and (meant to be toggled between OFF and ON) The rest are set to AUTO (dark + motion sensing), primarily to light your way up/down the bed and to the bathroom One of the step lights is hooked up to a USB-C charging cable. If any other nightlight shows a blinking red LED indicator (low battery), you can swap it’s position with this one If you find these lights bother you (especially when Tobi has zoomies at night) you can toggle them to the off position (we personally prefer occasional lights to stumbling in the dark!) There is no smart hookup for the kitchen lights — use the switch above Tobi cabinet that isn’t taped (kitchen ceiling), and the switch on the cabinet near the kitchen sink (under-cabinet) There is no smart hookup for the LED strip in the office near the kitchen — use the switch next to the dimmer There is no smart hookup for the entryway lights — use the switch/dimmer next to the front door There is no smart hookup for bathroom lights — use the switches/dimmer inside the bathroom Other devices
Partially open at 0830, fully open by 1030 (earlier on weekdays). Partially closed just before sunset, fully closed just after sunset Use the tall white remote to manually raise or lower all the way, center button to stop it where it is connected via smart plug which needs to be manually turned on (see below) automatically turns off at 1AM Smart plugs
Things connected with a smart plug (upward-facing LED, water boiler, bedroom standing lamp) can be turned on/off by pressing the power switch directly on them.
