First, make sure your automations are enabled from the information icon when you click into your device and find the button "automations" (toggle on)!
From the home screen, click the icon with the sun and the A, + Create Automation
+ Create New Automation
Below are the condition choices:
- Schedule: allows you to trigger an action based on the current date/time reaching a particular set of date/time values (all relative to a specified time zone).
- Sunset/Sunrise: triggers an action when the time before/after sunrise/sunset occurs according to a set of weekdays, at a specific geographic location.
- Device state: triggers an action based on the value of a Datastream.
- Scene: is a manual trigger of an Automation directly from the 'Automations' page: (tip: click wait, then do something" --> set the "Timer and can be used as a timer function).
After you have the when condition defined, the next step is to configure one or more "Do this" actions.
