If Temperature > 25c then PlugOn, if temp < 23 PlugOff

[drei413 0]

Greetings! A bit of newbie question with what I think should be a simple scene on HCL (NO LUA or magic scene).

Purpose: use exhaust fan (plug1) to control temperature range (T1 - temperature sensor) in a room (23-25c range for example)

I am trying to use the block building interface in the HCL but no indepth manual and most examples I find on google are not in English.

I have some ideas but mainly when a temperature limit is reached then a plug is actuated for a set period of time (say a 5 minutes) and then it either runs for that period of time and stops or checks for lower range limit having been reached? Am I making this too complicated? Sorry not much explanations in manuals on how to set up. Thanks!! I composed a screenshot of my scene (or do I need 2 - for on and off?)

Many thanks!

PS pointing to a learning resource for simple scenes in HCL would help (English non Lua plz))

I am looking at something similar but have a HC2 and can use Lua. So if it can't be done with blocks I will have to search how to write Lua

You need a separate on and off command...the seconds after the action refer to the delay in completing the action.
