Question

I'm on the new app trying to create the arrival logic. It has "if anyone arrived" . the problem is that it runs it even when someone is home already. It should be one of these users arrive then. How are you guys configuring this? Thanks

Answer 1

So it should run only when mode changes to home right? Change IF condition to "when location mode changes to HOME"

@tumefaction well, I'm trying to use it to run Home scene which sets mode to home.

Oh sorry. I was thinking about webcore. In app I'm using if anyone arrives then change location mode to HOME. This is automation not scene. It doesn't matter if it runs every time someone arrives. Only thing that matters is what happens when someone artives. Another automation rule changes SHM to disarmed. If it is already disarmed which means someone is already at home it does not actually do anything.

. and have to add this too. if push notification bothers you. do not add it to that "I'm back" automation. Add it to disarmed automation and then you get notification only when SHM mode changes to disarmed.

@tumefaction I have certain lights on at arrival and don't want that to run if someone is home and it already went past kids bed time for example. I'm familiar with webcore but the app should do this. Thanks for the response

@tumefaction I stopped using SHM a while ago because it's lame. I just updated my Automation to use that since Home mode isnt available. Thanks
