Touchscreen Settings

On the touchscreen, navigate to Main Menu > Settings to access basic system settings, including the output protocol, timezone, and available software releases.

Settings on the touchscreen

Tap a setting (or select it with the rotary knob) to change it in a popup. The top option with the X leaves the selection unchanged; the current selection is marked with a checkmark. Long-hold also cancels.

Web UI Settings

The Web UI exposes all settings, organized in the sidebar under Lighting Setup, Control & Integrations, and Device:

Device Location

The Location (latitude, longitude) setting under Device > System tells the device where it is installed. It is used to calculate the local sunrise and sunset times for schedules. The calculation runs entirely on the device — no internet connection is needed.

Enter the coordinates as latitude and longitude separated by a comma, for example:

30.2672, -97.7431

Two easy ways to find your coordinates:

  • Use the Find your coordinates link below the setting (latlong.net): search for your address and copy the values.
  • In Google Maps, right-click your location on the map and click the coordinates at the top of the menu to copy them.

Coordinates only need to be approximate — being off by a few miles changes sunrise/sunset by well under a minute. Make sure the Timezone setting is also correct, since sun times are shown and evaluated in the device’s local time.

NTP Time Synchronization

You can configure a custom NTP server for time synchronization, or sync the device time from your browser (useful when no NTP server is available on the network).
