Differentiate between switch and interface

[diderik 6]

In several scenes, it would be very useful to know whether the light was turned on/off at the switch or from the gateway.

Is it at all possible to update a variable or press a virtual device only when the switch is used and not when the same action is initiated from the gateway?

 

 

 

I guess this is impossible without some fiddly workaround, or possibly with LUA?

Possible workarounds would be to associate the switch with an unused module, or (more cumbersome but involving less hardware) make both actions update the variable, but then undo this again or prevent it in the automatic scripts.

 

Any ideas?

There is now way to distinct if device was set by gateway, wall switch or another module association. The only way so would be to use the hardware workaround you mentioned.
