How to create rules in RM for Zooz Zen34 - 3x press, 4x press, etc

Hello everyone. Total newbie here, just getting into trying this stuff.

So when I first tried to use my Zen34 switch as a trigger event in RM, I noticed it was missing 3x,4x,5x presses, etc. That's when I saw that it had to be done as a custom attribute for the advanced driver to be recognized. But now I'm here:

My confusion is twofold:

First, it doesn't say which button for the double, triple, etc press. The dropdown doesn't say which if those presses are for up or down on the switch.

The second issue is when I click one, I don't really understand why there's a comparison choice and am not sure how to proceed from here:

I was just wanting to double tap, triple tap, etc to turn my lights to different scenes or on or off. I was expecting to be able to click 'triple tap up' as an activation, and then I could move on to the effect, but as you can see that's not an option, plus there's more that I need to do, but am unsure what.

Thank you for any help!

Here's a rule I made for a valve.
One tap on button 1 does one thing.
One tap on button 2 does something else
Triple tap on but. 1 does something
Triple tap on but 2 does something

I'm no genius at making rules. So, not sure if the logic is perfect, but it seems to work.
I probably could've done 4 separate but SIMPLE rules that would've got the job done.

When you tap on the switch, you can see changes in the device page.

After you pick the number of times pressed, you have to set a comparison to button 1 or 2. I think that's what you're missing.

Quick question, before you selected the device (Office Switch), What did you select when it asked you "Select Capability for new Trigger Event"?

If you are using the custom driver, the number of button presses will show up as different buttons 1-10, not double, triple, etc. ie. 1,3,5,7,9 for the top presses and 2,4,6,8,10 for the bottom presses. So hitting the top 5x means button 9 is pressed.

That's the case with my driver, but I think there's another out there that uses custom events (or attributes, the names above) rather than standard button events with different numbers.

This is super helpful, thank you!

Also I didn't realize that the actions wouldn't show up until you went through them all.

Thanks again
