Setting Up Countdown Switching for a Socket

You can configure various types of automatic switching for the socket of your Smart Home device from AVM. Countdown switching means that a countdown begins every time a socket is switched manually: After a previously specified period, the socket turns back on or off.

"Manual switching" is switching on or off using the switch on the Smart Home device, with FRITZ!Fon, MyFRITZ!App, or a mouse click in the user interface.

  1. Select "Home Network / Smart Home".
  2. Click the "Automatic Switching" button for your Smart Home device.
  3. Enable the "Automatic switching enabled" checkbox and the "Countdown" option.
  4. Select the "switch back off after" or "switch back on after" option.
  5. Define the period of time after which the socket should be switched back off or on.
  6. Click the "OK" button.

Automatic switching is configured.
