Creating an automation
-
If your home location is in Belgium, Denmark, Sweden, and Finland. Make sure to install PowerTag Energy and pair it with the Wiser Home system to create and perform an automation.
-
If you are located close to the arctic circle(Sweden, Finland, and Norway), our system cannot set automations based on sunset or sunrise times due to the phenomenon of the Midnight Sun, where the sun remains above the horizon for 24 hours. This occurs generally from mid of May to end of July. During this period, we recommend you to use an alternative time-based condition for your automations.
