Overview and navigation of the eedomus portal main website
Your eedomus web space is available at https://secure.eedomus.com. Save this link in your favorites!
It is also accessible via: http://www.eedomus.com, then click on Connection.
The website is composed of two main parts: 1) widgets and action buttons, and 2) system configuration.
In addition, there are other support links, such as Help and User Connection.
Widgets and action buttons
The home page of the portal comprises widgets and action buttons, these are the primary navigation tools on the site. There are widgets organised by room, as well as by use.
IMPORTANT -- To navigate, do not use the browser's back button instead, use this breadcrumb at the top left of the screen.
Clicking the action button Home returns you to the list of panels.
Note: in general, each device can be found in two ways, once by its use (e.g. panel "lighting, presence"), and again by the room where it is installed.
Presentation of a widget
Each device is present in a mini-window (widget), which shows the last known value of the device. Devices are grouped by page (panel).
If the device allows "actions", just click on the icon (or cursor) to display the list of desired actions.
In the upper right corner of the widget are links that allow you to:
- See the details of data as a list or curve (magnifying glass icon)
- Configure the device or its display (gear icon)
If an exclamation point is that the device has connectivity problems (this is usually very temporary wireless devices).

System Configuration
This part concerns the system configuration and is primarily used for setting up the system, adding devices, or for programming. It is not needed to be used on a daily basis. It is accessible on the site secure.eedomus.com and not by the mobile applications (except for a few simple actions such as adding a Z-wave device).
Devices
This level includes your box eedomus, physical devices (temperature sensors, making automatic cameras, ...), and various information (weather).
You can add or remove a device by clicking on the button at the top of the page.
In the main table, you see at a glance all of your devices. Green indicates good communication between devices. The color red is bad. The gray is neutral. In these cases, you may need to replace the device's batteries.
Clicking on a device will give you direct access to its specific configuration page.
Clicking on the box eedomus will give you access to the system settings.
