Instructions

  1. Find the following nodes in the palette on the left side of the Node-RED:

  • Light Scheduler

  • vertex action

  • vertex cluster

2. Drag the nodes and drop them onto the workspace.

3. Go to the Light Scheduler node, in the section Globals, select the icon with a pen.

4. Set the name, longitude and latitude of your investment/building.

5. In the calendar, click on Monday’s 8 AM. Then you can expand the bar by dragging it down. In this way, you set time schedule, for example from 8 AM to 1 PM. In the Output section, mark fields as shown below.
