Can I connect a solar panel or other power supply to my Omlet Automatic Door Opener?
We do not offer a solar panel for the Omlet Autodoor. We have tested them and we do not recommend them.
You must use the Autodoor as specified in the instruction manual by using either AA batteries or our power adapter.
A set of AA batteries will last a long time (between 4-6 months) if not using the smart mode and 2+ months if using smart mode. We cannot offer any warranty, support or advice if you connect any other forms of power supply to your Autodoor. There is a high risk that you may damage your Autodoor, and the product may not work as intended.
Which coops does the Autodoor fit on?
The Autodoor fits straight on the Eglu Pro Chicken Coop, the Eglu Cube Chicken Coop, and on the majority of wooden chicken coops or barns. If you have an older Eglu Cube (before 2016), you can fit the Autodoor by using an attachment kit. You can also fit it to mesh or chicken wire on a run.
What batteries should I use to power my Omlet Autodoor?
We recommend only using good quality AA batteries with your Omlet Autodoor. We do not recommend rechargable batteries as these provide less power than regular ones, and will result in lower battery life
Please make sure you use 4 batteries that are the same brand, same type and same energy level.
If you are using the Autodoor with WiFi, we recommend using the mains power adaptor provided to get the most out of the Smart features.
How do I download the app?
The Omlet App is available in the Google Play store for Android users, and the App Store for iOS users. Simply open the relevant app store, and search for “Omlet”, or use the following links: iOS App Store – Google Play
Can I share access to my door?
You can invite anyone you like to have access to your Smart Autodoor via the Omlet App, and decide what level of access to give them. For more details, see our article on Sharing your Smart devices with friends and family
How do I change the door settings in the app?
To change the door settings, tap on the settings icon in the top right of the door card on the home screen. From the menu that appears, tap the top item “Door settings”. For more details on the settings available, please see Setting when your Smart Autodoor will open and close
Connecting to Autodoor fails after selecting door colour
If you see an error message in the app after selecting the colour of your Smart Autodoor, this may indicate your control panel was unable to contact our server to complete the provisioning process. Please check that the wireless network you connected the control panel to has a functioning internet connection, and no settings are in place that prevent the control panel from connecting out to our server.
Some parental control or network restriction settings can interfere with the ability of the control panel to contact our systems. If you have any such settings in place, you could try turning them off temporarily to see if this resolves the issue. In many cases such systems will have an allow list which you can add the control panel to to prevent any future problems.
Can I connect a solar panel or other power supply?
No, we do not recommend using a solar panel with your Omlet automatic door opener.
You must use the Autodoor as specified in the instruction manual by using either the supplied power adapter or AA batteries. A set of AA batteries will last for 2+ months. We cannot offer any warranty (expressed or implied), support or advice if you connect any other forms of power supply to your AutoDoor. There is a high risk that you may damage your Autodoor, and the product may not work as intended.
Can I use it with chicks?
The Autodoor is designed to be used by adult chickens, and it’s wise to only use manual mode if you have chicks in the flock.
Why is my device showing asleep?
This is to help prolong battery life. You can still send commands to the Door and it will respond to them when it next wakes up (Every 10 minutes). The Door will continue to open and close according to the settings you have saved.
You can turn off Sleep mode by switching to mains power, which we recommend to get the most out of the Smart Features.
What wifi networks are supported?
The Smart control panel will work with any 2.4 Ghz wireless network that supports WPA2/3-PSK encryption. Unsecured wireless networks are also supported.
Note: The Smart control panel will not work with WPA2/3 Enterprise networks, or with networks using the 5 Ghz frequency bands
