Why are some scenes not eligible to be selected in automation rules?

Automation rules that are triggered with locking or arming actions are not eligible to trigger scenes that contain the following actions:

  • Unlocking a lock
  • Disarming the panel
  • Opening a garage door
  • Opening a gate

When performing actions that increase the security of the system, scenes that include actions which counteract this will automatically be excluded as options. 

Example: When selecting a scene to be triggered by arming the system, any scene which includes unlocking a lock, opening a garage door or gate, or disarming the panel will not be available as options for the rule.
