How this automation works

Automate your lighting or devices by starting a LightwaveRF event when the sun sets. This Applet runs at local sunset based on your chosen location and triggers your selected LightwaveRF event automatically. Ideal for creating ambient lighting or energy-saving routines that adjust with daylight changes.
