Type Quick App
This Quick App calculates solar data like the solar azimuth angle to use with other scenes to control roller shutters for example.
Prerequisite
Set the HC3 location at Settings -> 5. General -> Location tab
or https://hc3-ip/app/settings/general/location
Setup
No setup needed! The Quick App automatically extracts the latitude and
longitude geographic coordinates from the location configured in your HC3.
How to use?
You can automate your smart blinds based on the sun’s movement with this Quick App. Using the sun’s azimuth, you can automatically adjust your blinds position based on the sun’s position.
You can use the SunEarthTools.com website to check the positions of the sun at various times of the day throughout the year and create scenes to control your blinds based on the sun position relative to your windows.
How to implement this advanced blinds automation is described in detail here: https://docs.joepverhaeg.nl/azimuth/
