Creating a template for smart home devices

You can save the individual settings of your radiator controls, for example FRITZ!DECT 301, in different templates. Simply select the appropriate template as required and click to enable the desired settings. You can enable the template with the user interface of your FRITZ!Box, a FRITZ!DECT smart switch, with FRITZ!Fon, and with FRITZ!App Smart Home.You can use templates to switch individual radiator controls or groups.

For example, if you work shifts, you can save different heating and switching profiles in corresponding templates for early and late shift and then quickly switch between these templates at any time.
