Switch Interface
A switch interface is a type of firmware that runs on MESHLE-enabled devices with one or multiple switching channels.
All MESHLE-enabled devices operate within a Bluetooth Mesh network, ensuring compatibility across different manufacturers. Whether for lighting, heating, or sensor-based automation, MESHLE products are designed to work together efficiently. The Switch profile provides advanced switching capabilities, enhancing automation, energy efficiency, and convenience.
Switch Interface Features:
- Multiple Channels: Supports one or multiple switching channels for independent control.
- On/Off Switching: Reliable power control for connected devices.
- Auto-Off with Warning and Extend: Automatic shutdown with pre-warning and extension option.
- Delayed On/Off: Configurable time delay for switching operations.
- Invert Functionality for Custom Logic
- Doorbell Function: Assignable input for triggering doorbell chimes or linked actions.
- Scenes: Integrates into custom scenes for synchronized automation.
- Gateway for Peripheral Devices: Connects with kinetic switches, sensors, and TRVs.
- Timers: Schedule switching based on specific times or astro events (sunrise/sunset).
- Rules: Automate actions based on network conditions for dynamic control.
Switch Interface Feature Breakdown:
Multiple Channels for Flexible Control
The MESHLE SWITCH supports one or multiple switching channels, allowing independent control of different circuits. Whether managing individual lights or entire zones, each channel can be configured separately to suit different applications.
Reliable On/Off Switching
Designed for simple and effective operation, the switch offers manual or automated control of connected devices. Users can turn appliances, lighting, or other electrical loads on and off through direct commands or preset automation.
Auto-Off with Warning and Extend
For safety and energy efficiency, the switch can automatically turn off after a defined period. A pre-warning signal (such as a flicker or sound) notifies users before shutdown. The extend feature allows users to manually prolong the operation if needed, providing flexibility in dynamic environments.
Invert Functionality for Custom Logic
The Invert feature provides flexibility by reversing the ON/OFF logic. When enabled, the ON state will not trigger switching, while the OFF state will activate it. This is particularly useful for fail-safe mechanisms, relay-based control, or specialized applications where the default switching behavior needs to be adjusted.
Delayed On/Off for Smooth Transitions
Users can configure a delayed activation or deactivation, making it possible to soft-start lighting or gradually shut down connected systems. This prevents abrupt changes and improves user experience in smart lighting and automation setups.
Doorbell Function
The device can be set as a doorbell input, triggering predefined actions upon press. This enables integration with smart chimes, lighting alerts, or connected notification systems, making it ideal for residential and commercial applications.
Scenes for Personalized Automation
MESHLE SWITCH can be assigned to custom scenes, allowing multiple actions to be triggered simultaneously. With one command, users can turn off lights, lower blinds, and adjust heating—perfect for home automation, offices, and smart buildings.
Gateway for Kinetic Switches, Sensors, and TRVs
Acting as a hub for peripheral devices, the switch can communicate with kinetic switches, battery-powered sensors, and thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs). This extends control beyond wired connections, making wireless automation more accessible and efficient.
Timers: Scheduled Switching with Astro Events
The switch allows precise scheduling by setting timers for specific days and times. Additionally, users can trigger actions based on sunrise or sunset with an adjustable offset. This feature is especially useful for outdoor lighting, security systems, and climate control.
Rules: Intelligent Automation Based on Network Conditions
With the Rules engine, users can define conditions that trigger specific actions within the Bluetooth Mesh network. For example, if a motion sensor detects movement, it can turn on the lights. Rules enable smart device interactions, reducing manual intervention and enhancing automation.
Reliable Integration with the MESHLE Bluetooth Mesh Network
MESHLE products with a Switch Interface function within a Bluetooth Mesh ecosystem, allowing devices to communicate without requiring Wi-Fi or an external hub. The SWITCH profile ensures full compatibility across all MESHLE-enabled devices, making it the ideal solution for smart lighting, automation, and energy management.
With its comprehensive feature set, the MESHLE SWITCH is an essential component of any Bluetooth Mesh smart home or commercial automation system.
