The Autodoor can be fitted to:
It cannot be fitted to the Eglu Go, Eglu Go Up or Eglu Classic chicken coop.
It can be fitted all wooden chicken coops.
To prevent the door from opening unintentionally in response to torches, headlights, security lights and so on, the light level detected must remain above the level set for opening for 15 minutes before the door will open.
In the mornings you may notice in the Omlet App that the current light level reading is reported at a level higher than the level set to open the door, but the door is still closed. This is completely normal. Wait for 15 minutes, and you should see that the door has opened within that time.
No, the motor in the door is designed to open the door horizontally.
If your Omlet Autodoor is connected to wifi then it will check for updates automatically once per day. If you would like to update it manually then click on the device settings icon, click on Firmware and then click “Firmware Update”.
If your Omlet Autodoor is not connected to wifi, then you will need to connect it for it to be able to receive updates. See our guide here
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.
The Autodoor Frame dimensions are: 49cm x 42cm x 5.5cm
The Control Panel dimensions are: 13cm x 12cm x 4.5cm
The Cable Length is 200cm.
Tap on the notification bell at the top of the home screen. From here select notifications. You can then choose your general notification settings as well as individual settings for each type of notification.
If you’re running the control panel on batteries rather than mains power, it will sleep to save power. Whilst it’s asleep, it is not connected to your wireless network, so there is no way to send a command to it to instruct it to wake up.
If your control panel wakes up whilst you’re using the app, the app will communicate with the control panel and ask it to stay awake while you’re active within the app, this will allow the control panel to be more responsive to your commands.
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.
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
We recommend powering your Smart Autodoor via the included mains power adaptor for the best experience. You can power the Smart Autodoor with batteries if you wish, we estimate you will get 2+ months of battery life with a set of good quality AA batteries. If you connect your Autodoor to a solar panel or any other type of power source, we will not be able to offer any warranty (expressed or implied), support or advice.
