The Automation:
- Trigger:
- You can choose any binary sensors or schedules to trigger the automation. Really anything with an ON / OFF state can be used.
- A trigger sensor, such as a Motion Sensor, will activate lights, switches, scenes, or scripts when the automation is triggered.
- A time delay begins the turning OFF process after all triggers are clear. See grouping sensors for more information.
- If triggers are activated again before the time delay ends, the automation resets for continuous lighting.
- Scene and Script Integration:
- Scenes or scripts offer additional customization for your spaces.
- Light Control Options:
- Utilize âLight Controlâ to adjust brightness, colour temperature, colour and transition times.
- Dynamic Lighting Options:
- Opt for âDynamic Lightingâ to continuously adjust brightness based on lux values or adapt colour temperature and brightness according to the sunâs changing elevation.
- Manual Override:
- Use âBypass Optionsâ for manual bypassing of trigger sensors, providing manual control and additional customization.
- Sun Elevation Options:
- Implement âSun Elevationâ to restrict automation to darker conditions aligned with the sunâs position.
- Ambient Light Sensing Options:
- Set up an Ambient Light Sensor for activation in low-light conditions, customizable with specified LUX values.
- Time-Based Options:
- Specify precise start and end times along with weekday selections to define when the automation should run.
- Device Tracker Options:
- Utilize âDevice Trackerâ to activate automation when home or within specified zones, preventing unnecessary activations. This feature is particularly useful to prevent unnecessary lighting activations when pets trigger sensors while no one is home.
- Night Lights Mode:
- Enable âNight Lightsâ for softer illumination during night time activities, automatically enabled based on conditions.
- HA Restart Safeguards:
- Benefit from built-in safeguards for Home Assistant restarts.
- Blueprint Add-On Integration:
- Sensor Light Add-On - Enhances media control automation. Click Here to learn more.
- Bathroom Humidity Exhaust Fan - Keeps the lights ON when showering. Click Here to learn more.
