To do something when a Door Opens

Create a Scene
Go to Events to create an Event
a. Select your sensor
b. For the Dropdown “what type of event is the trigger” , select “ A sensor is tripped”
c. Select Tripped Dropdown to “Yes”
d. Optional you can select your user name to get email if you check notify.
e. Next Go to Commands Tab
Go to commands to create a command
a. Select the device and choose what command (On/Off)

Follow the previous steps, except in step 2.C select Tripped Down to “No”

BTW Folks – This is NOT user friendly the first time (its bit confusing), then once you figure out, you get the hang of it
