All,

have any of you used the Lat/Long of your BLGW as a trigger for a command?

I understand, from my dealer, that you can use the whereabouts of your BLGW to

trigger scenes,  I.E.  5km from my house and coming closer, turn on a scene.

 

I can't figure out how to do this. . .anyone know?

The Lat/Log is to compute the sunset/sunrise times. The BLGW doesn't really move. does it?

It was said the BLGW will soon get a support for ifttt.com

ifttt.com allows you to create many automated rules, based on trigger, one of this trigger is location. You need to download and install an app on your phone for it to work.

Philips Hue currently has this capability, which it calls "geofencing." However, there is not yet a way to use Hue as a trigger.
