nest 模拟器_如何将Nest Thermostat用作运动探测器

nest 模拟器

While your Nest Thermostat is obviously meant for adjusting the temperature in your home, it can pull double duty and also act as a motion detector of sorts. Here’s how to set it up.

Nest Thermostat显然是用于调节房屋温度的，但它可以起到双重作用，还可以用作各种运动检测器。 设置方法如下。

The Nest Thermostat has a built-in motion sensor that it uses for determining whether or not there’s someone home, allowing it to turn down the heat or the air conditioner accordingly if it detects that no one is home. It’s also used for activating the screen whenever someone walks by, displaying the current temperature that it’s set to and letting you quickly take a glance.

Nest Thermostat具有内置的运动传感器，可用于确定是否有人在家，如果它检测到没有人在家，则可以相应地降低暖气或空调的温度。 它也可用于在有人走过时激活屏幕，显示当前设置的温度并让您快速浏览。

However, you can use this motion sensor for more than just that, thanks to a service called IFTTT (which stands for “If This Then That”). IFTTT uses “recipes” to allow users to connect all sorts of products and services together that you normally wouldn’t be able to connect, like having every new Facebook photo that you’re tagged in be automatically uploaded to your Dropbox. We’ll be using IFTTT with your Nest to send you a notification when your Nest Thermostat detects motion.

但是，借助一项称为IFTTT的服务(它代表“ If This Then That”)，您不仅可以使用该运动传感器。 IFTTT使用“配方”允许用户将您通常无法连接的各种产品和服务连接在一起，例如将标记有您的每张新Facebook照片自动上传到您的Dropbox。 当Nest Thermostat侦测到运动时，我们会将IFTTT与Nest配合使用，向您发送通知。

我为什么要这样做？ (Why Would I Want to Do This?)

When you go on vacation or just off to work for the day, your Nest Thermostat can go into Away mode automatically by using the Home/Away Assist feature, and whenever it detects motion, it will automatically switch to Home mode (because it thinks you’re home now). However, you can use this feature as a motion detector and receive a notification whenever this happens, alerting you to a possible intruder inside your house when you’re not home.

当您休假或全天工作时，Nest Thermostat可以使用“居家/居家辅助”功能自动进入“居家”模式，并且每当它检测到运动时，它将自动切换到“居家”模式(因为它认为您现在回家)。 但是，您可以将此功能用作运动检测器，并在发生这种情况时接收通知，从而在您不在家时提醒您房子内可能有入侵者。

Of course, you won’t want to receive a notification every time this happens, especially if you’re already home, so you can easily turn off the IFTTT recipe whenever you want, which we’ll show you how to do toward the end.

当然，您不会希望每次都收到通知，尤其是如果您已经在家的时候，因此您可以随时随地关闭IFTTT食谱，我们将向您展示如何做。

Before we start, there are a couple of settings that will need to be enabled on your Nest Thermostat. First off, the thermostat will need to be in Away mode in order for the IFTTT recipe to work, and you’ll need Home/Away Assist enabled.

在我们开始之前，需要在Nest Thermostat上启用几个设置。 首先，恒温器必须处于“离开”模式才能使IFTTT配方生效，并且您需要启用“进入/离开”辅助功能。

To enable Home/Away Assist, open up the Nest app on your phone and tap on the gear icon in the top-right corner.

要启用家庭/外出协助，请在手机上打开Nest应用，然后点击右上角的齿轮图标。

Select “Home/Away Assist”.

选择“家庭/外出协助”。

Tap on “What decides if you’re home”.

点击“决定您是否在家的决定”。

Select your Nest Thermostat.

选择您的Nest Thermostat。

Tap on the toggle button. It will switch from gray to blue (if it isn’t already).

点击切换按钮。 它将从灰色切换为蓝色(如果尚未转换)。

This feature will automatically put your Nest Thermostat in either Home or Away mode, depending on the motion it senses or doesn’t sense. You can also manually switch between the modes right on the home screen of the Nest app by tapping on the “Home” button.

此功能将根据您感觉到或不感觉到的动作自动将Nest Thermostat置于“家庭”或“离开”模式。 您还可以通过点击“主页”按钮，在Nest应用主屏幕上的模式之间手动切换。

Now that we have that set up, let’s get started making the IFTTT recipe. If you haven’t used IFTTT before, check out our guide to getting started for info on how to create an account and connect apps. Then, come back here to create your Nest recipe.

现在我们已经完成了设置，让我们开始制作IFTTT配方。 如果您以前从未使用过IFTTT，请查看我们的入门指南，以获取有关如何创建帐户和连接应用程序的信息。 然后，回到这里创建您的Nest食谱。

For your convenience, we’ve also created the recipe in its entirety and embedded it here–so if you’re already well versed in IFTTT, just click the “Add” button below. You’ll need to connect the Nest and SMS channels if they aren’t already, as well as enter in your own phone number for the text message alerts to be sent to. You’ll also need to select your home in the drop-down list under “Which Home?”.

为了方便起见，我们还完整创建了该食谱并将其嵌入到此处-因此，如果您已经对IFTTT有所了解，只需单击下面的“添加”按钮。 您需要连接Nest和SMS通道(如果尚未建立)，并输入您自己的电话号码以将短信警报发送到。 您还需要在“哪个房屋？”下的下拉列表中选择您的房屋。

If you want to customize the recipe, though, here’s how we created it. Head to IFTTT’s home page and click “My Recipes” toward the upper-right corner of the screen.

但是，如果您要自定义配方，则这是我们创建配方的方式。 转到IFTTT的主页，然后在屏幕的右上角单击“我的食谱”。

Next, click on “Create a Recipe”.

接下来，点击“创建食谱”。

Click on “this” highlighted in blue.

单击以蓝色突出显示的“此”。

Type “Nest Thermostat” in the search box or find it in the grid of products and services below that. Click on it when you find it.

在搜索框中输入“巢式恒温器”，或在其下方的产品和服务网格中找到它。 找到它后单击它。

If you haven’t connected your Nest Thermostat to IFTTT yet, click “Connect” and log in with your account. Follow the prompts until you’re finished connecting your accounts.

如果尚未将Nest Thermostat连接到IFTTT，请单击“连接”并使用您的帐户登录。 按照提示进行操作，直到完成帐户连接。

Next, you’ll choose a trigger–in our case, whenever the Nest senses motion. Select “Nest set to Home”.

接下来，无论何时Nest感测到运动，您都将选择一个触发器。 选择“将嵌套设置为主页”。

On the next page, select your home from the drop-down list. There will likely be only one option, unless you have multiple homes that each have a Nest Thermostat. After that, click “Create Trigger”.

在下一页上，从下拉列表中选择您的家。 除非您有多个房屋，每个房屋都有一个Nest Thermostat，否则可能只有一个选择。 之后，单击“创建触发器”。

Next, click on “that” highlighted in blue to set up the action that happens whenever the trigger fires.

接下来，单击以蓝色突出显示的“ that”以设置触发触发器时发生的操作。

The channel you select here depends on the type of notification you want to receive. For example, you can choose the “Email” channel if you want to receive an email whenever the Nest detects motion, or select the “IF Notifications” channel if you want to receive a push notification on your iPhone. You can even receive a text message with the “SMS” channel. For our example, we’ll be using the SMS channel and receiving a text message as our notification.

您在此处选择的频道取决于您要接收的通知类型。 例如，如果您希望在Nest检测到运动时接收电子邮件，则可以选择“电子邮件”通道，如果要在iPhone上接收推送通知，则可以选择“ IF通知”通道。 您甚至可以通过“ SMS”频道接收短信。 对于我们的示例，我们将使用SMS频道并接收一条短信作为通知。

After you select the SMS channel, click on “Connect”. The SMS channel will send a PIN to your phone, which you’ll type into IFTTT to connect the two. Follow the prompts until this is finished.

选择短信通道后，单击“连接”。 SMS通道将向您的手机发送一个PIN，您将在IFTTT中输入该PIN以将两者连接。 按照提示进行操作，直到完成。

Now, you’ll choose the action, so click on “Send me an SMS”.

现在，您将选择操作，因此请单击“向我发送短信”。

Next, you’ll enter in the message that appears when you receive the notification. You can put in something basic like, “Motion detected from your Nest Thermostat!”. Click on “Create Action” when you’re done.

接下来，您将输入收到通知时显示的消息。 您可以输入一些基本信息，例如“从Nest Thermostat中检测到运动！”。 完成后，点击“创建操作”。

On the next page, give your recipe a title at the bottom. This can be whatever you want. Then click on “Create Recipe”.

在下一页的底部，为您的食谱命名。 这可以是您想要的任何东西。 然后点击“创建配方”。

Your recipe is now live! Whenever your Nest Thermostat detects motion and automatically switches itself to “Home”, you’ll receive a notification about it, making it a great way to find out about a possible burglar in your house when you’re away. Again, your Nest Thermostat will need to be set to Away mode in order for this to work, but that will happen automatically if you have Home/Away Assist enabled.

您的食谱现已上线！ 每当您的Nest Thermostat侦测到动作并自动将其切换到“家庭”时，您都会收到通知，这是您离开家时查找房屋中可能发生盗窃的好方法。 同样，您的Nest Thermostat需要设置为“离开”模式才能正常工作，但是如果启用了“进入/离开”辅助功能，这将自动发生。

Whenever your Nest Thermostat detects motion and automatically switches itself to “Home”, you’ll receive a text about about it, making it a great way to find out about a possible burglar in your house when you’re away.

每当您的Nest Thermostat侦测到运动并自动将其切换到“家庭”时，您都会收到有关该文本的信息，这是一种在您离开家时查找房子中可能存在的盗贼的好方法。

If you’re home and don’t want to receive these notifications, you’ll need to turn off the IFTTT recipe, which can be done by clicking on “My Recipes” at the top of the page and then clicking the power button next to the recipe to turn it off.

如果您在家中不想接收这些通知，则需要关闭IFTTT食谱，方法是单击页面顶部的“我的食谱”，然后单击下一步的电源按钮。将其关闭的食谱。

This won’t delete it, and you can click the power button again to turn it back on whenever you want.

这不会删除它，您可以再次单击电源按钮将其重新打开。

Again, your Nest Thermostat will need to be set to Away mode in order for this to work, but that will happen automatically if you have Home/Away Assist enabled.

同样，您的Nest Thermostat需要设置为“离开”模式才能正常工作，但是如果启用了“进入/离开”辅助功能，这将自动发生。

Of course, this isn’t the prettiest setup, and the Nest Thermostat isn’t quite meant to be a motion detector used in this way (the Nest Cam is probably a better solution for this), but it’s a way to use the product you already have and get even more use out of it.

当然，这不是最漂亮的设置，并且Nest Thermostat并不是要以这种方式使用运动检测器( Nest Cam可能是对此更好的解决方案)，但这是使用产品的一种方式您已经拥有并获得更多利用。
