Run scene only once or twice

[MDC 78]

Hello,

Anyone can give an idea how to run a scene only one time?

 

For example:  if bedroom temperature is under 20 celsius send a push notification.

 

I set this and i receive continuous push notification if temperature is for example 17 celsius, and i want only 1 notification.

 

An example will be welcome for block scenes and also in LUA where i can set how many push notification/emails receive when scene trigger.

 

Thank you

block scene, for only one notification:

 

- trigger on variable = 0 and temperature below 20, send push and at the end of the scene set the variable to 0

- create another scene, setting the variable back to 1, if the temperature is above 20

 

Lua scene:

 

both temp check in same scene, with decrease of the variable

 

For number of push messages, with lua as above, with block you can create e.g. 3 scenes, checking for 3,2,1 (and temperature) and 0 if above 20 setting back to 3 the variable

Can you please explain what variable must to do? Or give an example? Thanks.
