motion and Lux scene randomly wont switch off

Question

Hi all, 

 

I am only working with block scenes at this stage. 

 

I have three scenes controlling my kitchen. 

1. If motion is detected and its between 7:01am and 10:59 pm and lux < 50 then turn on  downlights 100% and strip to 50%

2. If motion is detected and its between 11:00pm and 07:00am and lux < 50 then turn on  downlights 5% 

3. If no motion is detected where delay is 300sec turn off downlights and strip. 

 

Now for the most part this all works well and the time and lux based on scenes are perfect,  however around bedtime say 9 - 12 pm the lights sometimes turn off and other times they don't even though there's no movement. The off function has me stumped for consistent reliability. Please help

 

edit: I have noticed some of the times its not turning off, the event panel shows a lux and/or temp udate from that sensor has occurred during the 300 sec. Could this interfear with the scene?

    So I knew, this is the reason

    For now, you can only set the running instances to max, but it will not work for the cases when there will be more then 10 motion triggering during the wait period.

    Read this:

    I hope, @Fibaro team will fix it with adding the gui option for magic/block scenes, which is currently not 100% usable

  • Hi JD,

     

    I had responded here but it didn't stick the other day.

     

    I had increased the number of allowable instances to ten and it fixed the problem. The scenes are working spot on now. I have now included a third time frame condition and it works great.

     

    Thanks for your help.
