The Autodoor uses a 24h clock. So if you, for example, want to program your door to close at 6pm, you would set the control panel to 18:00.

Do I have to use Mains power for Smart?
You do not have to use mains power if using the smart features of the new Omlet Smart Autodoor control panel. We do however recommend it where possible, as it will improve the functionality of the product. Using mains power will enable the control panel to maintain a constant wifi connection, meaning when you send a command to the door, it will be performed almost immediately. On battery you will have to wait up to 10 minutes for the next time your control panel wakes up and checks in with our servers.
When running on battery with the recommended power settings, we estimate you should expect 2+ months of battery life with normal usage before you need to replace the batteries.
How long is the mains cable?
The mains cable you receive with the door is 5’10”
What is the power of the Coop Light?
The power (brightness) of the Coop Light is 1.5 watts and it is an LED light. This is equivalent to a 15 watt light bulb.
