Parameter AutoStart

Default Value: true

!!! Warning

This is an **Expert Parameter**! Only change it if you understand what it does!

Automatically start the Flow (Digitization Rounds) immediately after power up.

!!! Note

Typically this is set to `true`.
The main reasons to set it to `false` is when you want to trigger it manually using the
[REST API](../REST-API) or [MQTT-API](../MQTT-API) or for debugging.
