## Remote Control Considerations

{% hint style="info" %}
Network Latency

* Commands may take seconds to reach device
* Status update may be delayed
* Refresh page if status doesn't update
  {% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
Device Availability

* Device must be online
* Commands fail if device offline
* Check connectivity before issuing commands
  {% endhint %}

{% hint style="danger" %}
Safety

* Ensure safe conditions before starting
* Verify area is clear
* Follow local safety procedures
  {% endhint %}

## Automation Integration

Instead of manual control, AirDome can be automated:

### PM-Based Automation

* AirWatch monitors air quality
* Rule triggers AirDome start when PM10 high
* Rule triggers AirDome stop when PM10 low

### Time-Based Scheduling

* Define operating hours
* Automatic start/stop at scheduled times
* Day-of-week configuration

See:

* [Automation Rules](file:///automation/rules.md)
* [Schedulers](file:///automation/schedulers.md)

## Function Categories

### Device Control

Primary control functions:

* Start/Stop operations
* Power management

### Data Functions

May include:

* Request data update
* Force status refresh

## Error Handling

### Command Failed

If function execution fails:

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Error displayed

An error message is displayed.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Check device

Check device is online.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Check network

Check network connectivity.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Retry

Try again.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

### Device Not Responding

If device doesn't respond:

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Verify online

Verify device is online.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Check last seen

Check last seen timestamp.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Physical inspection

Device may need physical inspection.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

## Permissions

Function execution requires:

* Member or Admin role
* Active license on device
* Device online status

Viewers cannot execute device functions.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.kemperconnect.de/asset-types/airdome/functions.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
