Best app for random light control

Other Devices & Integrations Lighting & Load Control

I was using an app called EventGhost but its no longer part of the Vera app installation list. Anyone knows a better app to use for when no one is home and you want to make it look like someone is actually there by switching the lights of several rooms in a random pattern?

I’m on Application Version: 1.7.760

I think you mean “Vacation Ghost” (see http://forum.micasaverde.com/index.php?topic=12952.0)

Event Ghost is a different app for PC automation.

Bump since I am also looking for a Vacation Ghost alternative.

I’m unaware of any apps/plugins to replace Vacation Ghost. There are a couple of threads about using Lua/LUUP to get a similar effect.

Presence simulation is quite basic and should be easy to understand.

Vacation ghosts alternative is quite a bit more complex, but it also does more.

I tried to get these codes going but I have zero dev knowledge, no clue how to create a virtual switch, no clue where to save the code, no clue how to connect the code to the switch :expressionless:
