Rules allow you to transtition from controlling your smart home to automating it. Rules allow Symbio act automatically without any input from you. You can make the lights come on when motion is detected, turn down the thermostat at night, or sound an alarm when a loud noise is detected.

There are a number of Standard Rules that Symbio suggests or you can create you own custom rules using Symbio's internal sensors or even external ZigBee or Z-Wave smart devices.

You can add/edit rules following the procedure below. Up to 100 rules can be registered (including Standard Rules).
