I have a smart panel heater in my en suite which I can control via the tuya app. I would like to create a scene which would automatically switch the heater on at 7am provided the room temperature was below 12c. I would want it to automatically turn off at, say, 8am.
I have tried to create such a scene but it isn't working. One problem I have is that, for some reason, one of the parameters in the scene menu is in Chinese characters - see screenshot.
Can anyone take me through the steps needed to create this scene?
TIA Luke

You need 2 separate automations. One for on and one for off.

If: 7am
Precondition: below 12c
Then: power on

If: 8am
Then: power off

Thanks very much PCO - that makes sense! Do you happen to know what the chinese characters on my screenshot mean/signify?

I just bought a thermometer and had some Chinese characters on the screen, turned out it was a default name for the device. I went into "edit" for that device, deleted them and gave it a new name. Possibly your device is the same...
