I don't know how to start

Take a look at the Panel Configuration reference and the Panel Overview for details.

How to upload a TFT file

The hub installs the TFT the firmware needs automatically when the device connects. To install it by hand:

  • In the editor: Device Manager → Install TFT
  • In Home Assistant: Install on the device's HAUI Display update entity
  • Using a service: nspanel_haui.update_tft (add url to install a custom TFT file)

See the Services Reference for full details.

Update is not possible

See TFT Upload Failures.

Error on sleep

See Sleep Errors. The log entry is harmless.

The display should change its brightness over the day

Add an automation in Home Assistant that sets the panel's number.<device>_brightness_full and number.<device>_brightness_dimmed entities, for example dimmed to 55 % from sunrise and to 20 % from sunset.

The display should turn off completely only at night

Set a display-off schedule under Device Settings → Display dimming & off: enable Sleep schedule and pick the window (e.g. 22:00–07:00, overnight ranges supported). During the day the display only dims and the idle page stays visible; at night it turns off completely after the display-off timeout and wakes on touch. The hub drives switch.<device>_use_auto_display_off by the clock, so automations that toggle that switch (which previously fought the hub's own sync after reconnects and restarts) are no longer needed.
