Help – Application Basics

Devices are added in “Rooms”. The multi-level setup supports both small and large homes

Basics:

  • Devices in Enlighter belongs to “Rooms”
  • “Rooms” can belong to a “Level”
  • A “Level” can belong to another “Level” allowing for hierarchical setups
  • Example of setup with two different houses:

ApplicationBasics1

  • In the case above, the “Summer cottage” is created as a “Room” as there are only two devices in the cottage
  • Devices and levels can be moved, so you can change the setup if you find a more suitable solution for your situation at a later stage

1. To create a Level or a Room, go to the List or Graphical view and click the Edit button to get into

“Edit mode”

2. In Edit mode, click “Add new item”
3. In the screen that appears, you can:
    • Add the name of the level
    • Choose to create a Level or Room (this will be used to determine if you should be able to add devices or other levels – please see the explanation above)
    • Add an image/picture from your camera or camera roll

Note: You can not change a Level to a Room or vice-versa at a later stage if the Level or Room has “child entities”
