Re: Activehome Pro: timers security checkbox in advanced layout
If you want lights on for 30 minutes, don't use the security checkbox.
The security feature is useful for avoiding repetitive start/stop times.
If you insist on using this feature for short ON durations and don't want
the light on all night, add a second security OFF time for one hour after
the first ON time.
