# Brightness Modes
Enhance your control over brightness transitions during sunrise and sunset with the `brightness_mode` option.
## Available Modes
Adaptive Lighting supports three brightness modes:
| Mode | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `default` | Standard behavior based on sun position |
| `linear` | Linear ramp between min/max brightness |
| `tanh` | Smooth S-curve using hyperbolic tangent |

<summary>Enhance your control over brightness transitions during sunrise and sunset with <code>brightness_mode</code> (click here to learn more 🧠).</summary>
With Adaptive Lighting, you can set a `brightness_mode` to specify how the brightness changes during sunrise and sunset. The `brightness_mode` can be set to `"default"` ([as illustrated in other graphs above](#high_brightness-brightness)), `"linear"`, or `"tanh"`. If you choose to deviate from the `"default"` mode, you can adjust `brightness_mode_time_dark` and `brightness_mode_time_light` to further customize the lighting transitions.
When `brightness_mode` is set to `"linear"`:
- During **_sunset_**, the brightness begins to gradually decrease from `max_brightness` starting at `time=sunset_time - brightness_mode_time_light`, until it reaches `min_brightness` at `time=sunset_time + brightness_mode_time_dark`.
- During **_sunrise_**, the brightness begins to gradually increase from `min_brightness` starting at `time=sunrise_time - brightness_mode_time_dark`, until it reaches `max_brightness` at `time=sunrise_time + brightness_mode_time_light`.
When `brightness_mode` is set to `"tanh"`, it uses the smooth transition of a [hyperbolic tangent function](https://mathworld.wolfram.com/HyperbolicTangent.html):
- During **_sunset_**, the brightness starts to decrease from 95% of `max_brightness` starting at `time=sunset_time - brightness_mode_time_light`, until it reaches 5% of `min_brightness` at `time=sunset_time + brightness_mode_time_dark`.
- During **_sunrise_**, the brightness starts to increase from 5% of `min_brightness` starting at `time=sunrise_time - brightness_mode_time_dark`, until it reaches 95% of `max_brightness` at `time=sunrise_time + brightness_mode_time_light`.
</details>
Notice the values of `brightness_mode_time_light` and `brightness_mode_time_dark` in the text box.

## Configuration Parameters
When using `linear` or `tanh` modes, you can fine-tune the transition with these parameters:
| Parameter | Default | Description |
|-----------|---------|-------------|
| `brightness_mode_time_dark` | 900 (15 min) | Duration to ramp brightness before/after sunrise/sunset |
| `brightness_mode_time_light` | 3600 (1 hour) | Duration to ramp brightness after/before sunrise/sunset |
## Example Configurations
### Quick Transition (Linear)
```yaml
adaptive_lighting:
- name: "Quick transitions"
lights:
- light.living_room
brightness_mode: linear
brightness_mode_time_dark: 600 # 10 minutes
brightness_mode_time_light: 1800 # 30 minutes
```
### Smooth Transition (Tanh)
```yaml
adaptive_lighting:
- name: "Smooth transitions"
lights:
- light.bedroom
brightness_mode: tanh
brightness_mode_time_dark: 1200 # 20 minutes
brightness_mode_time_light: 3600 # 1 hour
```

## Interactive Simulator
The best way to understand brightness modes is to experiment with the interactive simulator:
<div style="text-align: center; margin: 2rem 0;">
<a href="../simulator/" class="simulator-link">
Try the Simulator
</a>
</div>
Adjust the `brightness_mode`, `brightness_mode_time_dark`, and `brightness_mode_time_light` parameters to see how they affect the brightness curve in real-time.
