Start or stop your scenes based on sunrise, sunset, or a fixed time

Posted on:

Doorcy now gives you even more control over your scenes by automatically stopping them based on sunrise, sunset, or a set time. This is useful for closing a gate, turning on outdoor lighting, or creating a certain atmosphere, for example.

With the new feature, as an administrator, you can decide when scenes start or stop, and whether you want this to happen every day, every week, or every month. You can also set multiple triggers for the same scene, allowing you to create different scenarios. For example, you can set up a scene that turns on the lights as soon as the sun goes down, or a scene that turns on your heating at 7:00 a.m. You can set the scene to your desired times via the admin environment. Users of your Doorcy can then view the settings of your scenes under the relevant scene in the Doorcy app.

Overruling the times

Is there a day when your scenes don't need to be activated or deactivated at the preset times? In that case, you can easily override these settings via the Doorcy app. When you're having a party or working late, you can adjust Doorcy to your current needs in just a few seconds.

Additional function

The new feature complements the existing options for starting scenes. Previously, this could already be done via a button in the app, by scanning a QR code, or based on preset time slots.

Let Doorcy do the work

Doorcy's new feature offers you many advantages as an administrator. You can have your scenes start or stop automatically based on sunrise, sunset, or a set time, so you no longer have to worry about manually operating your devices. What's more, it's a perfect way to save energy, increase the security of your property, or simply improve the atmosphere. Consider the following situations, for example:

  • You own a vacation park and want your guests to feel welcome and safe on your property. You can set up a scene that turns on the outdoor lighting throughout the property as soon as the sun goes down and a scene that automatically closes the gate after 11:00 p.m.

  • You have an office and want your premises to be well secured at night. You can set up a scene that closes the shutters and gate at 6:00 p.m. and activates the alarm.

  • You have a shop on a busy street and you want your customers to be attracted to your shop window. However, you don't want unnecessary energy to be consumed at night when the street is quiet. You can set up a scene that turns on the lighting from 10:00 to 22:00 so that passers-by see an attractive shop window.

Setting up the new feature is very easy. All you have to do is go to the relevant scene in the admin environment of your Doorcy and select the desired trigger. You can also combine multiple triggers for the same scene. Doorcy does the rest for you.
