Virtual Presence + Switch
From Hubitat Apps
Summary[edit | edit source]
Virtual Presence Sensor with Switch Capability as well.
Features[edit | edit source]
- Useful when you want to "turn on" or "turn off" a Presence Sensor. For example, Alexa can turn on/off a virtual switch, but cannot change the status of a virtual presence sensor. This driver allows Alexa, IFTTT, Google, etc... to manipulate a virtual presence sensor (active/inactive) as if it was a switch.
- Can be used as a Presence Sensor or a Switch in any Automation.
- One possible use for this is to use an Alexa as a presence sensor. The Alexa Routine is triggered by a Geofence event. The Routine then simply "turns on" (present) or "turns off" (not present) the virtual presence sensor by treating it like a switch.
