Ring To Open Party Mode

The Doorman firmware features a Ring To Open automation, which was previously known as Party Mode.

What does it do?

As the name implies, the entrance door will open automatically when someone rings the doorbell. This feature is especially useful during a party, allowing guests to enter the building simply by ringing the bell.

How do I use it?

You can enable or disable the Ring To Open automation using the switch in Home Assistant or by issuing the Ring To Open Toggle Command.

Configuration Options:

Toggle Command

This setting is useful if you have an unused function button on your intercom phone. The button can be configured to quickly toggle the Ring To Open automation.

Confirmation

If you enable this setting, your apartment doorbell will ring each time you activate the Ring To Open automation via command.

Delay

This setting allows you to configure a delay for the Open Entrance Door Command. If you set the delay to 60 seconds, it will randomly select a delay between 5 and 15 seconds whenever the automation is executed.

Timeout

You can choose to disable the Ring To Open automation after 5 to 60 minutes, after a single ring, or never.
