Why is switching a variable triggering a time based scene when the time is actually complete different to the set one?


Question

Guest Tango.Oscar.Mike

Guys, I am controlling our blinds also by temperature to help keep the upper floor a bit cooler during summer. To keep them down even the conditions (LUX) are met to usually have them open, I use another variable which defines "it is hot" and thus does not open the blinds during daylight. Also, the bedroom is controlled separately in the morning. Now the problem,  every time the the variable "Temp_Front_22" is set to "off" - which is done by the scene which closes all blinds when it gets dark automatically, the blinds in the bedroom are opened! How can this happen? This scene below should actually only run at this specific time set? Why does it run at any time when the other conditions are met?
As you might know from my introduction, I am a HC2 noob, but I would understand that "at exact time" is a condition which is only met once per day for just one second or maximum one minute (since it does not specify seconds)! Please enlighten me. Many thanks in advance!

Probably the triggers (we can't see that on your screenshot). Disable all of them and your scene should only run on the specified time.

    Ahhh! So the triggers work additional? I thought they are there because I use them in the scene. 
    So If I don't want them to start my scene I do uncheck them and the scene is then only started by the time trigger and the variables are then checked during run?
    Many thanks for your quick response btw!
