Lights on Motion Plus
Summary[edit | edit source]
Designed for use with bulbs/dimmers/switches in a room that you want to turn (or keep) on with motion, (optionally) dim before turning off, and whose on/off and brightness levels you want to remember the next time motion resumes so those settings can be restored (rather than necessarily turning on all lights you've selected).
Features[edit | edit source]
- Allows you to choose one or more bulbs (generally a whole room)
- Allows you to choose motion sensors to turn on lights and (optionally) other sensors to keep lights on (but not turn them on)
- Turns off selected lights when specified motion sensor(s) inactive for specified time after (optionally) dimming them as a "warning"
- Remembers the on/off states and level of each bulb and only turns on those that were previously on when motion resumes (if not prevented by restrictions configured in the app: mode, lux, time of day, etc.)
dimming the lights for 30 seconds (or whatever you choose) before turning them off, restoring them to their previous state if motion resumes during this time
- Ability to restrict app based on time, lux, mode, or switch state and option to choose to always turn lights off even if outside these conditions
- Ability to prevent lights from turning on if "soft" kill switch enabled
- Ability to prevent lights from turning on or off if "hard" kill switch enabled
