Switch mode: Each button press in the tile switches the actuator between open and closed, depending on its previous state.

Time mode: The actuator stays open or closed for a set period, then switches back. The time is entered as hours:minutes:seconds. In the example above it's set to 1 minute and 30 seconds.
