Elk Automation Depending on Who is Home

[jmed999]

Can I adjust a thermostat or turn on certain lights or other commands based on which user is in the house? Ie. If my cleaning lady (User #5) comes in and enters her code (Elk M1G) to disarm change the thermostat. Then when she leaves and arms the alarm change the thermostat back to an energy saving mode?

Thanks!

Rules.

All within the "and" conditional clause.

So if User #3 comes in and uses their code to disarm how do I get it to send me an e-mail? I looked in rules but I still don't know how to do this?

Please help

Not to sound mean, but have you looked at the manuals for the hardware?

It's a two-part setup; part 1 is in the XEP, and part 2 is the rule to activate it. EMail from the M1 is a weak-point and will take some work to get working.

Yeah, get your email configured then a simple rule can trigger it. I get a text everytime my cleaning lady comes/leaves.
