{% include dashboard/edit_dashboard.md %}
All options for this card can be configured via the user interface.
Buttons will appear on the card for the entities in the area including fan, light and switch. A motion sensor icon will appear in the top left if a motion sensor is in the area and motion is detected by the motion sensor.
If a camera is added to the area you can show the camera feed instead of the area picture.
