Delay the extinguishing of "x" sec/min of a light after closing the door

[GasDeKu 2]

Hi everyone, changing from HC2 to HC3 I found myself having to face this problem.

With the block scheme and a variable I managed to turn on a light to the opening of the door. What I miss is after closing the door, being able to delay with a timer off.

I attach the block scheme to be copied by this forum.

Thanks

You need to have an additional device on the action side and include the delay. See my example below

but where can I find the set delay option? I don't see it in the devices.

It is in the upper right corner

damn it works now sorry...🤭

as I wrote before now the timer works perfectly, however now the light turns off when the value set in the timer is reached even if the door is open. Is there a solution?

Probably need a separate scene that includes a condition (Left hand side) that the door sensor is closed

You could also use a LUA code I posted overhere:

 

 

 

It is meant for motion, but ofcourse can also be used with a door/window sensor. It turns your light on if the door is opened, the light stays on if the door stays open and the light goes off n seconds after the door is closed.

So, the scene that manages the sunset works but despite the second scene with the open door it still turns off.

Probably in this case too I'm doing something wrong....

Oh damn, but unfortunately I just migrated from hc2 to hc3 and the history of the declaration and action is still not very clear to me.😔

You can learn about the declaration and action by making a blockscene (or use an existing one) and turn it into a Lua scene.

You can see the Lua translation. (You don’t have to throw the scene away, just disable it and save it for your next adventure)
