Introduction

Presenting Room Services,

home automation designed to simplify your life.

How it works

Different operating modes according to your presence

The room manager is aware of your presence in the room. That's how it is able to manage heating, lighting and other appliances appropriately, as necessary, when you are there, and when you're away. According to your presence, the room manager runs different operating modes, in which you can configure applications and appliances in different manner:

In room mode: You can set the lights and heating at comfortable level the way you like it when you're present in the room.  Sleep mode: Setting to be applied when you're asleep in this room. At-home mode: Set the ambiance when you're elsewhere around the house. Night mode, when everybody has gone to bed, you can save energy by setting for lower temperature, and if you wish, you can also leave a night light on. Away mode, settings to save energy during your absent. Vacation mode, for longer absence, the room manager may help you save energy further, it is best however, to keep temperature just above freezing level.

Applications

Morning Call

Imagine waking up in the morning with a soft warm lights that gradually rise up just like the sunrise....

As the Sunrise Simulator wakes you up softly, the alarm melody is just there to remind you that it is time to get off bed.

A while earlier, the preheat function has already turned on the bathroom heater so that the bathroom and the towel will be warm when you actually get up. And all through the morning time, the bedroom will be brightly lit, to keep the ambient up. The MorningCall is one of room-service application designed to help you start the day.

There are other applications that can run simultaneously within the room manager:

• Autoheating: A thermostat program to manage heaters based on your presence, to save energy when you're not there, to keep you warm when you're around.
• Autolighting: Lights on when you're there, when it's necessary, and off when you're away.

You can download new applications into the room manager. More applications are available and more are on the way.

Meet Daisy and Wally

Daisy is ingénovie's first room-manager. She's responsible for managing heating, lighting and other appliances in the room.  Not bigger than a compact disk, she sits simply on a desk, coffee table, or you can have it mounted on the wall if you prefer, with the wallmount version Wally.

The room manager controls heating and lighting by sending commands to the smaller modules LiSwitch and PoSwitch. Learn more about other features and also Liswitch and Poswitch that helps Daisy to manage the room...

Installation

Installation is easy,

Room managers and other small modules simply plug into a wall outlet. Only the PoSwitch needs to be installed in place of a cable exit behind the radiator.

Whole house coverage. The room manager and the smaller modules talks to each other using powerline networking. Therefore all electrical appliances can be controlled individually.

Safety fallback! With room service system, your existing electrical wiring is still operational. Moreover, each room-manager is an independent unit, as it's not a centralized system, so failure in one room does not lead to another. 

Starts small wherever you'd like, and grow as you deem necessary 

You decide where to start installing the room-services, and you can grow the system as you deem necessary. Most will start from the living room, so that the room-manager can lights up the room and warm the house as you return from work. Other rooms can then benefit from the heating regulation and the energy saving just by installing PoSwitch behind each radiator.

Imagine...

Waking up in the morning,
with a soft warm light that rises up slowly like a sunrise.

A while before the alarm rings,
the towel warmer turns on,
reheating the towel, and the bathroom,
to help you start the day.
