SmartThings Automation Examples for EP1

These examples use the standard SmartThings routine builder.

To create a routine, open the SmartThings app and go to Automations > + > Create routine.

Use If for the EP1 trigger or condition, and Then for the action such as lights, scenes, notifications, or ventilation.

This can be useful where you want a quick reaction as someone enters the room.

If:

• EP1 Presence changes to Motion detected

Condition:

• EP1 Illuminance is below your chosen lux value

Then:

• Turn on the lights

Air quality notification with CO2

This requires the optional CO2 module and CO2-enabled firmware.

If:

• EP1 CO2 rises above your chosen ppm value

Then:

• Send a notification

• Turn on ventilation, if available
