Yesterday
Model: Tapo T100   Tapo T110  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: latest

1) I have set up the following automation (Tapo T110): Every day, between 8 and 23, when I am away from home, if the staircase door is open then send me a notification.

2) I also set up another automation (Tapo T100): every day, 1 hour after sunset, when I am away from home, if    

smart motion sensor detects motion then send me a notification.

However, both automations do not work, they always send notifications.

Where am I wrong?

Did you disable the sensor's own notification feature? You may check it in their Device Settings page.

 

Additionally, your automation settings seem a bit odd. Did you know that when you add multiple conditions under “When,” the automation will run if ANY one of them is met? For example, in your first setup, the automation will trigger — sending a notification — whenever you leave home or when the motion sensor detects movement. This means even if you’re at home, movements detected by the sensor can still activate the automation and send a notification. Is that what you intended?

I would like that when I am not at home and 1 hour after sunset Tapo would send me a notification that the sensor has detected movement
