Rule Settings

• Confirm/Grace duration
  When the Remaining Time of a Rule is less or equal to the Confirm duration, AutoStandByPro will display to the user a confirmation dialog box regarding the execution of the associated action. In order to display the confirmation dialog box for a rule a user must specifically request for it while Creating/Modifying a rule.
  
  When a rule does not require a Remaining Time before executing its associated Action, then when the rule is triggered AutoStandByPro will wait for a Remaining Time equal to the Grace duration before executing the associated action.
  
  Please note that Grace duration must always be less or equal to the Confirm duration.
