Light on movement scene

[Guest hotrot_net]

I've got a Aeon Labs DSB05xxx-ZWUS Z-Wave Multi Sensor (yes only movement sensor works) that when it gets trigged it turns on a lamp.

If the sensor goes into no movement state it has to turn of the lamp.

Until there it works fine. But what I really want is it truns of the lamp after about 15 min, after getting trigged. At this moment when it's in rest state it turns of right away, while i'm still in the room and did not move for about 2 min.

Is there something wrong in my scene?

Hi, you do not use intervals timer to do that. Put 900 (15 minutes) in the red box of the switch off. I can put a screenshot if you want...

Hi Krikroff,

The Timer interval is there because I don't want to turn on the light durring daytime it would be a waste of money.

So again what I want is

A. turn on light when I walk in the room for at least 15 min

B. If there's bin no movement in those 15 min turn of the light after these 15 min.

C. only do this after the sun has gone down (normaly I would do this with light lumination but the HC2 doenst reconize my Aeon Labs DSB05xxx-ZWUS with all its 4 features).

You cannot use "Timer interval" to do this because "Timer Interval " repeats scene execution every x minutes or every x hours.

In a synthetic way :

A+B:

Create Local Variable:

_sensor = 0

And scene:

If device.SENSOR ==MOTION_DETECTED And var._sensor=0 Then

var._sensor=1

device.LIGHT_SWITCH =ON during 900s (red box)

device.LIGHT_SWITCH=OFF

var._sensor=0

End If

C:

Fibaro should add the possibility to compare time when a scene is triggered and something like: if sunrise … if sunset… otherwise I don’t know how can we do this…

Thats not working

Time in seconds you enter in red box is " time before " execute and not "wait after", is like a delay.

Set variable to 1

Switch on set to 0 seconds

Switch off set to 20 seconds for example

Set variable to 0

Re check your scene

The only problem with that scene is that it'll Always turn of the lamp in whatever state the Motion Sensor has become within these 20 sec.

In condition block: try to invert variable check and sensor check : put sensor check before variable check, seems variable can operate only if a trigger like timer or device is before (from A.Socha)

[Guest hotrot_net]

That doesnt change a thing.

After Then there's no check that sensor is trigged again, so it still turns off the lamp.

I cant make much sense of your screen shots, but based on your original post I think you need to do the following:

First and foremost create a variable that determines whether it is after sunset... Ie...

Every day at sunset "Evening variable" = 1...

Every day at sunrise "Evening variable" = 0

If "Evening variable" = 1 and sensor is "breached" turn on light

Then create a separate "turn off" scene which turns the lights off.

If light = on and sensor == SAFE ( required delay in red box for sensor device NOT light)

THEN Light = Turn off

The programming syntax seems a bit off but it does work

[Krikroff 199]

The problem is that it seems that the values ​​of variables does not change dynamically in the scenes, but it works if you manually change the value in the panel variable. I think that there is a problem with the variables. Predefined variables when it does not seem to work even manually.

(Predefined values in scene seems not work (edited))

Only simple global variables work for me
