Triggers and Lux condition not behaving as expected


MattyO

Question

Can I get some help on this one please. I don't understand why my conditions are not working. 

The setup that I want is. 

If the light is under 10 lux and either the motion sensor detects or the Garage door opens. then the lights turn on.

But what is happening at the moment is, the sensor is behaving as expected. i.e if the light is above 10 lux the sensor won't trigger but if it is bellow it will. But if the garage door opens it triggers no mater what the lux.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

Scene attached. Thanks

  • I’m sorry that has confused me. What are you saying I should change. 

    Do you mean switch the order 

    so sensor or garage and motion?

    if (l AND m) OR d

    that's what you wrote above. 

     

    but according to your block I can see 

    (l AND m OR d) 

     

    PS:

    l - lux

    m - motion

    d - door

    stop! 

     

    if the light is under 10 lux AND (either the motion sensor detects OR the Garage door opens) THEN the lights turn on.

     

    so, 

    (

    l AND (m OR d)

    )

     

    please define your requirements clearly

  • Thank you so much I have been using block scenes for nearly a year and never realised that the () were so important. What fool. 

    You have opened my eyes.

    Cheers Matty O
