Allgemeine Fragen zu Smart Home
With the degree of automation you want, you determine which elements you will use. Even if you only start with a switch socket, you can gradually expand the system to a complete solution. myTEM Smart Home is modular and open and therefore suitable for beginners and professionals. With myTEM Smart Home you have a scalable solution for every application. myTEM Smart Home is ideal for new buildings as well as for retrofit solutions and renovations.
The myTEM Smart Home Server (Radio Server and Smart Server) is at the heart of the smart home. It is the central intelligence of the smart home system. It networks and controls all other smart home devices and the myTEM smart home app. The Smart Home Server is available in versions with radio communication (Radio Server) and for installation in the control cabinet (Smart Server). With the various expansion modules and gateways, the myTEM smart home system can be adapted to any size and home automation requirement.
Special radiator valves (radio valves) are available for this purpose, or an IO module that can be used to control the valves of the underfloor heating. This allows the indoor climate to be controlled throughout the house. Temperature profiles can be stored for each room and adapted to individual requirements. Window and door contacts detect when a window is open, for example. The radiator thermostat then regulates the radiator down. This also helps to save energy!
Basically, every heating system is compatible. With the myTEM Radio Valve you can easily integrate the heating radiator and with the myTEM Radio IO module your underfloor heating into your smart home and thus save energy.
The myTEM starter packages cost between CHF 356.00/EUR 345.00 (timer starter set) and CHF 487.00/EUR 473.00 (light starter set). You can find the prices of all myTEM Smart Home products in our online shop.
You decide whether your smartphone should have external access to your smart home. If not, then your myTEM Smart Home will only work in the local network. It doesn't connect to the outside world. Everything still works within your local network, without restrictions. Your privacy is protected in any case and at all times!
Personal data is only used if you release it for a specific purpose and you want to access your Smart Home via the myTEM Smart Home App. Only then will data be sent over the Internet. Therefore, only the Smart Home Server at your home serves as storage space for your private data.
You can make your home more secure with the help of various actuators (door/window contact, motion detector). The motion detector alerts you to movements. The window and door contact triggers an alarm when a window or door is opened. If smoke develops, the myTEM Smart Home App reports immediately and raises an alarm. At the same time you will receive a push notification on your smartphone.
Z-Wave is the international radio standard for communication between devices in the intelligent house. Z-Wave enables secure, stable communication in which each message is reconfirmed by the recipient (two-way communication). All mains-operated devices forward messages if the direct radio link between transmitter and receiver is disrupted (routing). Thanks to Z-Wave, devices from different manufacturers can be used together in a wireless network. Thus, myTEM can be used with any Z-Wave devices from other manufacturers in the common Z-Wave wireless network.
The myTEM Radio Server is a Z-Wave device with secure communication (S2) and uses the radio frequency of 868.4 MHz. If other devices also have the special, secure communication, data is exchanged in this secure mode. If the other devices do not support this mode, normal, unsecured communication is used for reasons of compatibility.

A smoke detector should be installed in every bedroom, children's room and in the hallways that serve as escape routes. Place the smoke detector as centrally as possible in the room, in a horizontal position, on the ceiling.
One smoke detector is only enough for a 60 square meter room and should always be installed in the middle of the ceiling . For larger rooms and special structural features, please note:
L-shaped rooms larger than 60 square meters require two smoke detectors, one on each side.
Large rooms that are interrupted by partition walls, partial walls or large furniture require a smoke detector for each area.
Open connections that extend over several floors require a smoke detector at least on the upper level.

Technik
Place the myTEM server as centrally as possible in your house or In her flat. First add all devices to the server (inclusion process). Place the devices closest to the server first, then further away.
It is recommended to have a Z-Wave device approximately every 10 meters or closer for maximum efficiency. While Z-Wave has a range of 100 meters outdoors, building materials reduce this range. The more line powered devices you have in your Z-Wave network the better as they also act as repeaters for extending the Z-Wave signal. Z-Wave's mesh network allows a Z-Wave signal to "jump" through other Z-Wave products to reach the target device to be controlled. If a wall is interfering with that signal, all you need is a simple Z-Wave repeater or other mains-powered device to bypass the wall and forward the signal to its final destination. Z-Wave supports up to 4 hops, so overall home coverage increases depending on the number of Z-Wave products on the network. The maximum range with 4 hops is approximately 200 meters.
myTEM Smart Home is an open system that allows the integration of Z-Wave components from other manufacturers. The variety of Z-Wave products is now so large that we can only test devices from other manufacturers if necessary.As a rule, it is possible to integrate Z-Wave certified components, but their function can be limited in different ways. We can only help with the devices we have tested.
With the radios, care should be taken to ensure that they are always connected or disconnected via the menu. A factory reset for the radios is not recommended.
The valves have a manual mode. It cannot be used without a server.
First of all, you have to make sure that the LED lamp can actually be dimmed. This is usually written on the packaging of the LED lamp. LED lamps from different manufacturers behave differently when it comes to dimming. The fine tuning can be done with the tool in the function block. The following settings are recommended: trailing edge for LED lamps, leading edge for incandescent lamps.
The Radio Valve radiator thermostat comes with screw connections for standard valves (threaded connection M30x1.5mm, adapter for Danfoss RA/RAV/RAVL). If additional adapters are required, these can be obtained from Eurotronic at https://eurotronic.org/produkte/zubehoer/metalladapter< /a>.
DALI - Digital Addressable Lighting Interface - is the new manufacturer-independent interface standard for dimmable electronic control gear. DALI is primarily designed for the convenient control of light in closed rooms. The focus here is on the uncomplicated operation of the light, with all the components involved, in the simplest possible way.
We support the following device types:
- DALI Device Type 4 (DT4): Dimming of 230 V lamps
- DALI Device Type 6 (DT6): LED modules / 4 channels can be connected virtually to one output for -
RGBW converted
- DALI Device Type 7 (DT7): Relay Module (from DALI 2 standard)
- DALI Device Type 8 (DT8): RGBW color/color temperature control (from DALI 2 standard)
- Creating light groups
The Controller Area Network (CAN) is today's wired standard for the connections between the respective myTEM modules. The messages are exchanged between the components via two twisted data lines. This technology is considered to be very robust and powerful.
LED drivers, power supplies and other electronic loads can have high inrush currents of over 30A. In such cases, use inrush current limiters (ESB), or an appropriately rated coupling relay. Note: when connecting such loads in parallel, the current doubles. Recommendation: ESB101 from Camtec
