Know whether a button was pressed or whether action was called through Z-wave?


Ettrig

Question

I want to disable motion sensors for X seconds when someone presses the physical button to turn off a light.

 

Is there any smart way to solve this?

 

I can't find any way to see whether an action was triggered by the push of the physical button or from a Z-wave command

(I only want to disable the motion sensors when someone actually pushes the physical button)

 

Basically, is there any way to figure out how an action was instigated?

ofcourse

create a variable: buttonpress with yes or no

 

scene

if button press, outside lights on and set var buttonpress to yes

after xx seconds set var buttonpress to no

 

pirs

if pir is save and var buttonpress is no, then lights out

 

i do this exactly with my outside lights, if they are set to on manually ignore all pirs, i don't want to sit outside and the lights go out
