Direct links are direct connections between two devices, which allows to control these devices depending on and with each other. An example: If the radiator thermostat and the wall thermostat are linked with each other, the linked radiator thermostat can be controlled directly by turning the wall thermostat. If the thermostat and the window contact are linked, the heating is reduced to a fixed standard temperature when the window is opened.

Direct links are created in the device manager in one of the two devices to be linked. Open the device manager and go to one of the devices you want to link. Click on Direct Links .

You will now see all devices that are available for direct connection to the selected device. Click Connect to create the direct link to this device.

To undo a direct link, go to the corresponding device in the device manager and click on Direct Links . The linked device is then shown with a blue background. With Disconnect you can disconnect the created direct link.
