Steps

Someone arrives / leaves

The home, a person or a place becomes occupied or empty

When step — What starts the flow. Step type when-presence.

How it works

Starts the flow when the household, one person, or a saved place becomes occupied (arrives) or empty (leaves). The household is the default; pick a person or a place to narrow it.

Example

Someone arrives / leaves (Everyone leaves) → Control devices (all lights off)

Lights go off when the last person leaves.
