You can turn off individual rules, for example when the Resident goes on vacation, or a particular alert is no longer needed. That will prevent you from receiving unnecessary alerts, e.g. if there are rules to alert you when there is no motion, or nobody in bed. You can enable the rules again when the Resident returns. (You may also activate the Away Mode setting to temporarily stop all alerts when the Resident is away.

Most rules have a checkbox next to them. When the box is checked, the rule is enabled and working. When it is unchecked, then the rule is disabled. Each rule is enabled or disabled separately, so that you could keep active a rule that is useful even when nobody is home (for example an alert when the indoor temperature of the home gets too low) while disabling rules related to motion or activity.

To Re-Start a Rule: Simply reverse the process, by adding a check to the box for most rules, or change the slider switch back to On for medication dispenser rules.
