Can anyone explain why the below program fails to wait the 2 minutes as specified in the Repeat clause? It instead cycles the light on/off every 30 seconds - *never* waiting the requested 2 mins for the 'repeat' clause. I cannot understand what the ISY is doing. Shouldn't it immediately execute the Wait 30 Seconds, then turn lamp on(off), then wait another 2 mins to do the repeat? (Note: below program is only for test purposes. I am only trying to figure out how to predict and control when the IF clause fires. So if it looks like it is performing a useless function, then, yes, that is true.) If From 5:28:00PM For 15 minutes And Status 'Living Room / Living Room Torchiere Lamp' is Off Then Repeat Every 2 minutes Wait 30 seconds Set 'Living Room / Living Room Torchiere Lamp' On Else Wait 30 seconds Set 'Living Room / Living Room Torchiere Lamp' Off It would be extremely helpful if someone could explain what is really going on in the ISY behind the 'IF'. For the life of me I cannot get my head around the actual events and conditions that trigger the evaluation of the IF clause. And this is preventing me from making effective programs.
