Add setting to "Include in Activity" for TV or any other device

I don’t have a presence sensor in my living room and I don’t think I will ever put one there because of aesthetic reasons. I would like to be able to use my TV being “on” as a way to make a zone “active”. I already do this with my flows but it would be cool to make any device a “presence” device if it is on.

You can create a virtual motion- or presence sensor.
Have it switched on or off by using a tv boolean capability like “Turned on”.
No flows :smiling_face:

In this example:

  • TV device: TV WebOS UJ630V
  • Virtual presence sensor: TV V-Presence Sensor

The Virtual presence sensors’ “Presence switch” (Button 1) is used to activate the “Occupancy alarm”;
The TV’s “Turned On” capability is used with Button 1 to activate the virtual device.

And yes, it activates the zone it’s in :wink:
