# Switches

Switches allows you to create custom accessories with actions that can't be done with the main accessory.

A custom switch can execute multiple or even all actions.

This for example will: Set a sleep time for 60 minutes, mute the TV, change the aspect ratio to 16:9 and switch the TV to channel 13.

{"name": "Multiple", "sleep": 60, "mute": true, "command": "KEY_16_9", "channel": 13}
