Schedule and Automations

In May 2021, we replaced ACTIVE Control with Schedule & Automations – that is your Scheduled Control and Indoor Climate Automations. With Scheduled Control, you can set your own schedules for your VELUX solar and electric roof windows and accessories to fit your needs. With the Indoor Climate Automations, your products will operate based on your indoor climate sensors if you have VELUX ACTIVE with NETATMO. If you have VELUX App Control, the Indoor Climate Automations feature is disabled as sensors are not a part of this solution.

Note: As a VELUX App Control user, you can always upgrade to VELUX ACTIVE by adding indoor climate sensors to your solution.
We have removed ACTIVE Control from the VELUX ACTIVE with NETATMO app. However, your VELUX solar and electric roof windows and accessories will still work as they did before the update if you have not made any new schedules in your app. Watch our Schedule & Automations videos to better understand the new feature.
You are not able to use Indoor Climate Automations with your VELUX App Control as this feature operates based on indoor climate sensors. With indoor climate sensors, your VELUX solar and electric powered products will adjust automatically given the temperature, humidity and CO2 levels of your home and the settings you have made for these. Your personally set schedules for your products will always overrule the Indoor Climate Automations.

Note: As a VELUX App Control user, you can always upgrade to VELUX ACTIVE with NETATMO by adding indoor climate sensors to your solution; in this way, you will be able to have Indoor Climate Automations.  

You are always in control of your products. Therefore - because of the delay setting - your First priority controls and Scheduled Control will always run as wanted, no matter what the sensor-based Indoor Climate Automations say.
Learn more about how the delay setting operates through the below table.

VELUX APP vs. VELUX ACTIVE
