Away Mode

Recommended Posts

I use a ketpad button as the key indicator for home/away. I can certainly control it rematelt, but I have not automated the status...all manual. If I were to automate it, i might do so via mobilinc ad location. I might actually prefer it based on schedule, but i do not see a practical solution to make that happeb. I have decided it is simply too easy to press the button when i leave for vacation.

So, do you all have your programs checking the 'away' status variable in their IF statements to determine if they should run? 

 

Either that or you can put programs into folders that are activated/deactivated based on that variable.

 

I also use the status of my elk.  Some things are based on whether I am home, others on whether my wife is home, and others yet are based on if anyone is home.

I prefer depending entirely on the state of a Keypad button that I can turn on upon leaving or using an app or the portal.

 

Away
Folder Conditions for 'Away'

If
        Status  'Keypad Button' is 100%
    And Status  'Keypad Button' is not Off
 
Then
   Allow the programs in this folder to run.
