Accessory Manager

In the Accessory Manager you add and configure devices connected to your SmartCore inputs, outputs and DALI bus.

Adding a Device

1. Open the Web Interface of your SmartCore and go to Accessory Manager
2. Click the + icon
3. Select the device type
4. Enter a name for the accessory
5. Assign the relay output, digital input or DALI address where the device is connected
6. Configure any accessory-specific settings (see the sections below)
7. Click Save Configuration once all accessories are added
8. Reboot the SmartCore

Input modes

Most accessories share the same digital-input options. Sensor-style accessories such as the Contact Sensor and Motion Sensor only expose Inverted. The Garage accessory uses Close or Open instead.

Setting	Description
Switch	A regular two-position wall switch. Each flip toggles the accessory.
Momentary	A push-button. Triggers the accessory each time it is pressed, not when it is released.
Inverted	Reverses the input logic. Use when the wiring is flipped, or when your contact is normally closed instead of normally open.
Stateful	Tracks the constant position of the input instead of looking for changes. Use for sensors that hold a state, such as a door contact that stays closed.

INFO

Matter is an evolving standard. Device type support is continuously expanding. For device categories not yet covered by Matter (such as garage doors), the Atios SmartCore continues to support Apple HomeKit.

---

DALI

DALI Light

Exposes a DALI lighting ballast as a Matter or HomeKit dimmable light.

Setup

Field	Description
Output	DALI address of the ballast. Ballasts that do not appear must be addressed in the DALI Configurator first.
Inputs (DALI²)	Optional. Trigger from a DALI-2 wall button.

DALI Relay

Switches a non-dimmable load via a DALI-addressed relay device on the DALI bus.

Setup

Field	Description
Output	DALI address of the relay device. Relays that do not appear must be addressed in the DALI Configurator first.

Lighting & Power

Lightbulb

A light wired to a SmartCore relay output.

Setup

Field	Description
Output	Relay (Output 01 to 12). The Inverted flag treats the relay as Normally Closed.
Turn off after	Optional auto-off delay in milliseconds. 0 disables the timer.

Motor Control

Drives a motorised load (for example a fan or pump) using three relays for Up, Down, and Stop, with matching physical inputs.

Setup

Field	Description
Inputs	One input each for Up, Down, Stop. Pick Switch or Momentary for all three.
Outputs	One relay each for Up, Down, Stop.
Runtime	Total motor travel time in milliseconds. Default 20 000 ms.
Toggle stop relay before up or down	Pulses the Stop relay briefly before reversing direction.
Inching relay	Hold-to-run. The output is active only while the input is held.

Outlet

A wall socket wired to a SmartCore relay output.

Setup

Field	Description
Output	Relay (Output 01 to 12). The Inverted flag treats the relay as Normally Closed.
Turn off after	Optional auto-off delay in milliseconds. 0 disables the timer.

Programmable Switch

A virtual switch input you assign in your smart home app (Apple Home, Google Home, and others) to trigger scenes or control other accessories. The accessory has no outputs.

Setup

Field	Description
Inputs	Wired digital input (Input 01 to 12) or a DALI-2 button. See Input modes.

After saving, open your Home app and assign the switch to an automation or scene.

Switch

Generic on/off switch wired to a SmartCore relay output. Use it for any non-lighting load that needs a simple on/off Matter representation, such as ventilation or heaters.

Setup

Field	Description
Output	Relay (Output 01 to 12). The Inverted flag treats the relay as Normally Closed.
Turn off after	Optional auto-off delay in milliseconds. 0 disables the timer.

Blinds & Shutters

Shutter

Motorised shutters and blinds with directional up and down movement. Inputs and outputs can be onboard relays and inputs, or DALI-2 devices.

Inputs

Mode	Description
NONE	No physical input. Control from the app only.
ONBOARD	Onboard digital inputs for Up and Down. Pick Switch or Momentary.
DALI2 BUTTON	DALI-2 button by Address. Pick Switch or Momentary.

Outputs

Mode	Description
NONE	No physical output.
ONBOARD	Onboard relays for Up and Down (typically Relay 1 and Relay 2).
DALI2 BLINDS	DALI-2 blinds address. Optional invert direction flag.

Options

Field	Description
Runtime Lift	Full open or close travel time in milliseconds. Default 30 000 ms.
Runtime Tilt	Slat tilt time from −90 to +90 degrees in milliseconds. Default 1 100 ms. Set to 0 if your shutter has no slats.

Climate

Valve

A water valve or similar single-relay actuator with a Matter-aware valve category.

Setup

Field	Description
Output	Relay output. The Inverted flag treats the relay as Normally Closed.
Valve Type	Matter sub-category (see table below).

Valve Type

Type	Use case
Generic Valve	Any on/off valve that does not fit the categories below
Irrigation	Garden, sprinkler, drip systems
Shower Head	Shower control
Water Faucet	Tap or faucet control

Sensors

Contact Sensor

Detects the open or closed state of a dry-contact sensor such as a door, window, or magnetic reed.

Setup

The input modal only exposes Inverted. Contact sensors report state, not button events.

Setting	Description
Inverted	Reports closed when the input is HIGH (default: closed when LOW).

Motion Sensor

Detects motion via a PIR or motion sensor.

Setup

The input modal only exposes Inverted. Motion sensors report state, not button events.

Setting	Description
Inverted	Reports no-motion when the input is HIGH (default: motion when HIGH).

Security & Access

Garage Door

Garage-door opener with an impulse output and at least one contact sensor for state feedback. Labelled Garage in the Web Interface.

Setup

Field	Description
Sensors	At least one is required. The input modal asks Close or Open instead of Switch / Momentary, depending on what your reed contact signals when the door is in that position.
Outputs	Pick Single relay control (one impulse output that triggers the opener) or One relay for open, another for close (two separate impulse outputs).
Runtime	Total open or close time in seconds. The SmartCore uses this together with the sensors to compute current state.
Garage has a stop state	Check this if your opener cycles OPENING, STOPPED, CLOSING with each impulse instead of just OPEN and CLOSED.

Sensor input modal

Setting	Description
Close	Pick this if your reed contact reports an active signal when the door is closed.
Open	Pick this if your reed contact reports an active signal when the door is open.
Inverted	Reverses the above reading. Use if the sensor reports the opposite of what you expect.

Lock

Motorised door-lock actuator via a SmartCore relay output, with an optional wired status input.

Setup

Field	Description
Output	Relay output. The Inverted flag treats the relay as Normally Closed.
Inching lock time	Auto-release delay in milliseconds. The relay automatically turns off after this delay, simulating an impulse-style lock release. Leave at 0 for static on/off.
Inputs	Optional. Wire a doorbell button or status feedback. See Input modes.
