Automation AutomationThis section lets you monitor sensors (temperature, motion, door contacts) and control outputs (relays, lights, locks) connected to the Abilis via WIO, RIO, or RVS modules. You can build visual dashboards, create automated rules (e.g. "if temperature exceeds 30°C, turn on the fan"), and write custom programs for advanced logic.
The Abilis automation module was designed for demanding clients. It uses the Internet and cellular networks but works perfectly even without them — your building automation continues running if the internet goes down. It does not share private information with anyone and interacts directly with the Router and Telephone Switchboard built into the same unit.
