Rules, also referred to as Automations, provide instructions to your devices on when to turn on and off (lights and plugs), or when to record videos and send notifications (cameras). A trigger is the action which occurs to kick off the rule. All rules are structured as follows; “When a trigger occurs, then take this action”. Examples would be:
- “When the time reaches 5:00pm turn on the light.”
- “When motion is detected, record a video and send a notification.”
