How do I configure my devices to be synchronized?

Version: 0.8 or later

Automatic synchronization of devices means that Switch King sends signals to your devices with specific intervals to ensure that your devices are in their expected state. If the coverage is low in your appartment or house, automatic synchronization might be a way to handle the problem.

Switch King supports two types of automatic synchronization:

  • Synchronization at startup of server
  • Synchronization at given intervals

If a device is eligable for synchronization or not is specified in the settings screen for the device.

Synchronization at startup

Synchronization at startup of the server means that the server sends signals to all eligable devices to ensure that the devices are in their expected state. This can be a good way of solving problems when there's, for example, a power outage.

Synchronization at given intervals

Synchronization at given intervals means that the server sends signals to the devices at a specific interval.
