Why doesn’t my control panel “wake up” when I open the app?
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.
