A day in the life of an Abbra
customer....
Scenario 1 The Morning Rush
Each working day, it was always the
same process to be ready for work: Bill
turned on the lamp next to his bed,
opened the bedroom drapes, switched on
the bathroom lights and turned on the
heat lamp so it would be comfortable
after he took his morning shower, then
went to the kitchen for breakfast. One
day, Bill discovered a wonderful way to
get rid of these redundant tasks, easily
and reliably: the Abbra Home control
system
Thanks to Abbra, Bill could set all
these actions just as he needed:
• at 6.55 am, the alarm rings,
• 5 minutes later, the bathroom heat
lamp is switched on, as well as the
lights in his bedroom, in the kitchen, in
the bathroom, and the drapes open.
• 10 minutes after leaving for work, the
heat lamp and all the lights are turned
off automatically.
Now Bill's "waking up" is more peaceful.
Thanks to Abbra, he even gets to lay in
bed 10 minutes longer.
Taking advantage of off-peak hours
electricity is quite difficult in our busy
lives, because the lowest rate always
applies during unpractical periods of time
at night, when the whole family is
sleeping.
Avoiding energy waste is also a hard
discipline; all the members of the family
must remember to turn off certain electric
appliances and lights before leaving a
room for a long period!
Thanks to Abbra, a lot of domestic tasks
are automatically realized when the
energy cost is at its lowest. No need to
remember, as Abbra will remember for
you!
To realize this application, you
need:
•
PAM01 Appliance module (Qty:
several units) - Plug all the electrical
appliances you wish to control by
setting, in an appliance module.
Give each PAM01 the same House
Code ( i.e. A) and a specific Unit
Code ( 1 - 16)
•
PLM03 Lamp module (Qty: several
units) - Plug all the table lamps you
wish to control by setting in a lamp
module. Give each PLM03 the same
House Code (i.e. A) and a specific
Unit Code (1 - 16)
•
NOTE: All lights that are turning on
and off in unison can have the same
Unit Code.
•
Go to
www.myabbra.com
and select
the Automation link.
•
Assign each of the Automate fields
the appropriate House Code and
Unit Code to match the House Code
and Unit Code you have selected on
the PAM01and PLM03.
•
Assign each Trigger field the trigger
that will cause the light to turn on or
off. This can be activation by
passing in front of a motion detector,
opening a door, by a schedule or by
an event such as arming the
system.
Trigger Options
ARM AWAY (upon AWAY arming).
ARM HOME (upon HOME arming).
DISARM (upon disarming).

Step 5 – Completing the
Control Panel Installation
Easy Tabletop Placement: To

base of the unit in each corner of the
control panel.
