This is a multi-function area as it displays the current Open and Close settings and additionally, if you press either of the icons, you can change the settings.
Opening or Closing the Door
You may manually open or close the door by pressing the button. For security, you will be asked to press the button twice to confirm the action. You may also cancel the action by pressing the "cancel" button when it appears after the first press.
