Universal Sensor controls light

[vanBakelElektro 0]

I have a universal sensor with a normal moving sensor (id 55).

With a timer the lights will go off in 2 minutes even when there is a movement.

How can i reset the scene so that the light(id 11) will be on when there is movement and the timer will be working when there is no movement anymore.

tnx

You need to have a loop which checks every second or so whether there is still movement. If there is still movement, the timer should be reset. I have something similar with this scene:

Now, what this scene does, is to turn on a room light when the light sensor reads below a certain value (set at 50) and the motion detector detects motion. It will turn on the light to a predetermined value (default 80), and keep it that way for a set amount of time (preset at 60 seconds). After the 60 seconds, it will slowly dim to 0 and then turn off the lamp (dimming to 0 is not the same as off!). If motion is detected before it reaches 0, it will reset the timer and turn the lamp back on to full blast.

If you want to use above code, you need to go into the Variables Panel and create a global variable called "motionoverride". When set at 0, the light will turn on to 80, when set at 1, the lights will turn on to 25. If you change 25 to 0, it will not turn on the light even if motion is detected. I use this at night to make sure light doesn't come on in the bedroom while we are sleeping.

Just remember to change all the id values (including 24 value, and 27 value in the properties) to the ids of your motion and light sensor.
