Creating a routine for smart home devices
With routines you can control your smart home devices whose settings you saved in templates and scenes by using an if-this-then-that statement. Routines allow you to realize versatile and individual switching of your smart home devices.
In an if-this-then-that statement you define a specific action that is executed when a specific condition is met on a trigger. In this case a smart home device, for example a smart plug FRITZ!DECT or a smart switch FRITZ!DECT 440 serves as the trigger. The action is automatically executed, i.e. a template or a scenario is activated when a condition on the trigger, for example a switching state or measured temperature, is fulfilled.
The following is an example of a routine: If the humidity measured by the FRITZ!DECT 440 reaches a certain level, the previously configured scene "Humidity" with a FRITZ!DECT 200 smart plug with a connected humidifier is applied.
Note:This guide is valid for FRITZ!OS 7.50 or later. If you are using an older FRITZ!OS version, the configuration may differ or functions may not be available. You can find the FRITZ!OS version on the "Overview" page of the FRITZ!Box user interface.
