Parameter Type Purpose Enable Simulation Switch Item Switch Item which, when OFF, will trigger the simulator rule to run. OFF was chosen to make it easier to tie the rule to an Item that tracks presence. Simulation Items Group Group Item Group whose members are those Items that should be included in the p…

I use the following script to simulate presence by turning lights on/off while I’m away. The “Away” state is determined, in my case, based on the Alarm_Armed status.
