Control, schedules & automation

The Control panel is where the Energy module moves from observing to acting. From here you operate connected devices, automate routine switching, and shed load — always with safety guardrails and a full audit trail.

Actuating devices

The Control panel can operate the connected equipment in a zone.

• Cut or restore electrical supply to a zone.
• Turn relays on or off.
• Set dimmer or HVAC levels.

Safety first

Actuating physical supply is a sensitive action, so several safeguards are mandatory and cannot be skipped.

• Cutting or restoring supply requires the energy:control permission.
• A reason for the action is mandatory.
• An explicit confirmation is required before the command runs.
• Restoring supply to a zone with an active Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) is blocked until the lockout is cleared.

Lighting schedules

Lighting schedules switch zones or devices on and off automatically on a recurring weekly schedule — for example lights off overnight and on again before the first shift.

Automation rules

An automation rule triggers an action when a condition is met, such as a consumption threshold or a time of day. Actions that cut supply or shed load always require confirmation, so automation never operates critical equipment silently.

Audit log

Every command is recorded in an audit log — who issued it, when, the reason given, and the result — giving you a complete and reviewable history of all control actions.
