What is the "Holiday" scene and how to configure it in TaHoma?

Leave your home with peace of mind by setting up your absence!

Thanks to this scene, your equipment will be automatically activated during your holidays to simulate your presence! 

Choose the dates of your vacations and link actions to this period.

The steps to follow to configure it : 

1. Start in the "Scenes" menu

2. Click on "Agenda". Then, choice "Plan an absence +".

3. Enter your period of absence. The times corresponding to your departure and return can also be set.  

4. Define the daily comportment of your equipment using the two options available to you:

Option 1: Planned actions

Determine specific actions that will happen at the same time every day.

Required settings:

• At what time? (At dawn, dusk or at sepecific time)
• Which equipement(s) and action(s)? (Open my shutters, turn off the light(s) ...)

Results:

• At dawn+1h, the shutters will open.
• At 6pm, the light will turn on
• At 7pm, the shutter will close and the light will turn off.

Option 2: Presence simulation

Select your equipment and the time interval of your choice. TaHoma will then activate them randomly during your absence!

Required settings:

• Over what time period? (E.g. : between 8 am and 6 pm)
• Which equipment(s)? (Shutters, blinds, lights...)

Results:

• At a random time between 8 am and 1 pm, the shutters will open.
• At a random time between 1 pm and 6 pm, the shutters will close.

Note that you can create your "holiday" scenario by choosing both planned and random actions. Also, it is possible to set up several planned actions and several random simulation periods per day. 

At the end of your configuration, you can see the details of your planned actions and the summary of your presence simulations. You can still make changes. To see the summary of your presence simulation, click on “See my schedule”.

5.  If you wish to expand your schedule, simply click on "+ Add action".
If the schedule is convenient for you, click on "Validate".

6. You can find your "Holiday" scene in the "Scenes" menu.

To modify your absence period and your schedule, click on the "Edit my holiday" button. To delete the scenario, click on the "End the holiday period" button.
