Trigger Questions
Posted: Mon Aug 22, 2016 4:40 pm
It seems that the Nest Home Master Device has a state which indicates home/away status and I monitor that for changes in state if I want to trigger events based on change of status. It also appears that I can use an action to set home/away status.
I observe that my house occasionally seems to go into "away" mode sometimes when it shouldn't. My thermostats are not positioned in ideal locations to see motion, however my Nest Protect detectors generally are. Am I correct in thinking that any Nest Protect detecting motion should keep the Master Device's state set at home?
Also, I'm curious - is there any way to trigger withinIndigo when a particular device (thermostat or Protect) detects motion? Is there any action to makethe Protect ring to light up or change color?
