Dear forum readers,
I’m using the latest release of HA on a RPI4 and I’m trying to automate something basic.
My use case:
Based on my GPS coordinates from my smartphone (this works, coordinates are changing; 0 = home)
- Leave home → Lights out
- Enter home → Light on
I followed a lot of YouTube instructions, but nothing really seems to work fine for me.
This also because the interface/options from HA is changing or the use case is more complex than mentioned above.
My problem:
When I change parameters in Automations the parameters from/to changes from Away to Not_Home or visa. I don’t get it….
When I enter home the lights turn on, but when I leave nothing happens…
Can anybody help me please?
Thank you in advance.
Hans
