How to build an automation in qtrl.me. Pick a trigger, add conditions, choose what should happen, and test run before saving.

How to create a schedule that turns devices on, off, or dims them at set times, at sunset and sunrise, on chosen weekdays.

qtrl.me can switch devices by the spot price: cheapest hours, price caps, price levels and a thermostat that lowers the setpoint when prices are high.

How to build a thermostat in qtrl.me that turns heaters or cooling on/off by a temperature sensor, with night setback, frost protection and price control.

How to use the flow editor in qtrl.me. Connect events, states, logic and actions on a canvas, test run without sending anything, and save.

Build a dashboard in qtrl.me with sensors, switches, dimmers, blinds and the electricity price, in panels with colors and icons that change with the value.

From account to first automation. How to add your RF-Hub, find your devices, and take the next step with schedules, Shelly, virtual devices and dashboards.

How to link your Shelly account to qtrl.me and choose which devices to share, so relays and sensors can be used in automations and on the dashboard.

How to create a virtual device in qtrl.me and send values to it from Home Assistant, Homey, a script or a webhook, to use them in automations and on the dashboard.

How to give a value on a virtual device a formula, for example the average temperature of two sensors or the power in kW, so qtrl.me recalculates it automatically when the inputs change.

How to check if your RF-Hub has a new version, how to update it from qtrl.me, and how to let the hub update itself.
