Automatically turn your lights on at sunset
How this automation works
Make your Philips Hue lights blink when an AduroSmart contact sensor detects that a door or window has opened. This runs each time your selected contact sensor is triggered and quickly flashes the lights for visibility. Perfect for getting a visual alert when someone enters a room or opens a main door.
