Help – Using devices

You can access your devices from both the List view and the Graphical view

In list view:

  1. After adding devices to your rooms, they will appear as a list
  2. Each device will show controls based on how they are added in the Telldus Live interface (note: as of 1.0.1, you can tap on a slider to automatically dim to that level – 0% and 100% have enlarged tap areas)
  3. The list will also show you the latest status as reported by Telldus Live! The green light is used for devices with only On/Off abilities.
