Scene ignores TIME when VARIABLE is changed

[play3man 5]

Hello guys,

 

I have some trouble with creating scene, which has to TURN ON a Fibaro Plug at exact time, but only when variable is met.

 

The problem is, if i tell scene to TURN ON plug at exact time, it works fine. But, when I add variable next to the time with "And", scene completely ignores the time and runs every time the variable is met.

So if I or a different scene change variable to OFF, this scene will automatically trigger despite it shouldnt untill 18:00. Anyone knows why please? Thank you!

Hi
You must remove the checkmark by "alarm"

Then the scene will run when the clock passes 18:00 and alarm = off

@hTiger1 Doesnt work anyway   Everytime i manually change that variable / or / the variable is changed by different scene, this scene will trigger even with uncheck "ALARM".

Hi
The scene should not do as you describe.
Have you tried to delete the scene completely and create a new one.

[play3man 5]

@hTiger1 Yes, i tried, still the same

It should be simple, do not understand it.

@samuel I dont think this is the same case. Fibaro is ignoring Time and the whole scene stands only on Variable, for no reason. If i am not doing something wrong, there must be a bug in the system.

Hi
Perhaps we misunderstand each other a little.
The scene should work as in my first response and can not take into account the time when the variable changes.

[play3man 5]

But why it is ignoring the time?

Hi

The timer box is designed to run the scene (in your case) at. 18:00 and only that. 

[play3man 5]

Yes, but the scene runs everytime the variable is changed. Everytime. Not only at 18:00.

Hi @play3man

Can you untick the variable as a trigger and save .. it's not the trigger .. time is the trigger. .. per @hTiger1

and then tick auto start and automatic run and .. it should all be good.

 

So it should be similar to this test I just ran ..

I changed the variable to daytime = 0 and moved the time forward a couple of minutes and it didn't fire at that time, then changed the variable to 0 again and moved the time forward a couple of minutes and it fired again ..

Is whatever is feeding your variable working correctly ?

Cheers,

al.

Thank you guys for help but i contacted support and solved this problem.

 

Yes, the solution is simple - just to uncheck the variable under triggering variables, but Fibaro not always recognize the change and you need to re-add the scene with variable already unchecked.
