I am still testing around the usage of variables and tried the following simple thing.
I do have a predefined variable having two values being ON and OFF.
I do have a scene (automatic) which switches on a wall plug, when the variable is in its OFF status and sets the variable to ON.
If variable=ON the "switch on" and set variable to ON
nothing happens.
Only when I restart HCL, the scene is triggered. When I then switch the variable to OFF in the variable panel, nothing happens.
What I also noticed. when the variable is switched ON and I manually trigger the scene, the wall plug is switched ON, even the trigger condition of the variable being OFF is not fulfilled, how comes?
this somehow makes the usage of variables as trigger conditions useless.
