Seasonal Comfort Mode

The seasonal comfort mode uses the predicted temperature of a location or information from the light and temperature sensors to determine the temperature of a room and maintain a desired temperature in it by opening or closing the shutters.

It is a solution that efficiently maintains the desired temperature of a room in all seasons:

Winter: In winters, the shutters stay open during days and close after sunset. This uses the maximum natural heat to maintain the desired room temperature.
Summer: In time summers, the shutters close during the day such that the desired temperature is maintained in a room while allowing a good level of light inside the room.
Mid-seasons: In seasons other than summer or winter:
- If the highest temperature of a day reaches 22° C or above, the seasonal comfort mode operates the shutters the same as in summers.
- If the highest temperature of a day is below 22° C, the seasonal comfort mode operates the shutters the same as in winters.

The Seasonal Comfort Mode adapts its operation based on the devices available in your system, offering three levels of algorithm efficiency. Each level improves the comfort and energy savings by integrating additional data sources:

Basic level - Control based on time & geographical location:

At this level, it uses your home’s geographical location and the time of day to manage shutters automatically based on the estimated sunrise and sunset times. This maintains the optimum light and temperature at home. This level is ideal for users who want a simple, automated solution without additional sensors.
Enhanced Level - Temperature - Driven Optimization:

At this level, it uses the local indoor and outdoor temperature in addition to the time and your home’s geographical location. It manages the shutters dynamically based on the real-time temperature conditions to improve comfort.
Advanced Level - Best-in-class optimization with light sensors:

At this level, it further improves the shutter management by using the real-time light intensity measured by the outdoor motion sensors and the indoor and outdoor temperature.

It offers maximum efficiency by adapting shutter movements based on actual temperature and natural light, rather than relying only on the estimated sunrise/sunset times.

TIP: Choosing the right level for shutter operation:

The Seasonal Comfort Mode adapts to the devices installed in your system. Even if you don’t have all the required sensors, you can still benefit from the feature at a basic level. This flexible approach ensures that you can experience optimized comfort and energy efficiency, regardless of your system setup.

However, for the best results, we recommend using the full set of compatible devices.

NOTE: The seasonal comfort mode performs accurately when the indoor and outdoor temperature sensors (Temeperature/Humidity Sensor) and outdoor motion sensors are installed at home.

IMPORTANT: The IP rating of the sensors used for the seasonal comfort mode are as follows:

Sensors	IP rating
Outdoor Motion Sensor	IP66 - Sensor is protected against dust and water ingress.
Temeperature/Humidity Sensor	IP20 - Sensor is protected against solid objects of size more than 12mm.

Therefore, they should be installed at a suitable location at home.
