At-Home creates the appearance that the space is occupied, by automatically scheduling lamps and fixtures to randomly turn on, dim, and turn off throughout the day. Emergency Mode serves as a visual notification that, when enabled, will randomly flash the lights to deter trespassers or signal there is an emergency.
