SKYVIEW 2

We recommend that you place your SKYVIEW 2 in the room you occupy the most. Ideally, you spend a minimum of 4 hours per day in this room. If no space qualifies, do not worry! We recommend that you put SKYVIEW 2 in your bedroom where you can wake up to its sunrise. That will have a big impact on your morning routine and your sleep quality. SKYVIEW should be positioned at a standard distance from your face, in your direct line of sight. Approximately 3 feet or 0.9 meters from your face on a workstation, bedside table, or living room area is a good distance. Ideally, yes, you would have a SKYVIEW for each room that is frequently occupied, especially the rooms you are sleeping or working in.

Before assembling your SKYVIEW 2, please ensure you have downloaded the SKYVIEW App on your mobile device or tablet. You may also check out our video tutorial on how to set up your SKYVIEW 2.

1. SKYVIEW 2 requires minimal assembly, remove the light from the box, the power supply, and power cord.
2. Next, plug in the power supply and power cord together.
3. Then plug the power supply into the base of your SKYVIEW 2.
4. Finally, plug the power cord into the wall.

Your SKYVIEW™ is designed to provide benefits in the rooms where you spend the most of your time. Ideally, yes, you would have a SKYVIEW for each room that is frequently occupied, especially the rooms you are sleeping or working in. To receive the best effect and benefits, SKYVIEW 2 should be positioned at a standard distance from your face as most table lamps. It is recommended that 3 feet or 0.9 meters from your face on a workstation, bedside table, or living room area. This placement will provide the correct amount of light to meet standard recommendations for daytime, evening, and nighttime to best support your physiology, sleep, and wakefulness.

There are plenty of locations to place your SKYVIEW 2. Placing SKYVIEW on your bedside table or nightstand in your bedroom provide additional benefits - the automatic sunrise feature wakes you up during the lightest part of your sleep, boosting your morning awakening response and gently welcoming you into the new day.

You can adjust the light to a “comfortable” brightness level using the dial on base. Twist the dial counterclockwise to dim the lamp, and clockwise to increase the brightness. Check out our support video for a tutorial on brightening and dimming your SKYVIEW 2.

SKYVIEW 2 arrives with the light source you need to take your first step to a better you!

The “light bulb” inside SKYVIEW™ is called the light engine and is included with the purchase of your SKYVIEW 2.

The SKYVIEW 2 light engine features an innovative combination of light-emitting diodes (LEDs), specially engineered to support healthy circadian rhythms from morning until night.

Even more impressive, this combination of LEDs was designed by our SKYVIEW™ experts — You will not find a more effective, radiant, and complete wellness light than SKYVIEW. There is not a “wellness,” “therapy” light, “tunable white,” or “smart” light on the market as effective for wellness, comfortable, and beautiful as SKYVIEW™.

Your SKYVIEW can be operated manually, without being connected to a schedule. Using the SKYVIEW dial you can manually turn the light on/off, dim the light up or down, toggle between day and night modes, and engage pairing mode.

1. To manually turn the light on / off, simply push down on the dial and release it to toggle between on and off.
2. To manually dim the light, turn the clockwise to increase brightness and turn it counterclockwise to reduce the brightness.
3. To switch from daytime to evening mode, simply push down on the dial and hold for four (4) seconds.
4. To engage pairing mode, simply push down and hold the dial for 10 seconds. When SKYVIEW is in pairing mode, you will see a flashing red light until the app on your mobile phone or device is detected.

Photophobia, or a sensitivity to light, can be brought on by sleep deprivation. To help combat this sleep deprivation and light sensitivity, dim your SKYVIEW at approximately 60% brightness and continue to use it for a few weeks. This will help you sleep better, and help make you less sensitive to your SKYVIEW 2. Then you can gradually increase the intensity to get the best benefits.

If that pop-up banner is skipped or goes away, navigate to the Device Configuration by pressing the pencil icon in the upper right corner and selecting 'device update.'
