Just fyi - Actually the beep was more of a confirmation during the day time that the rule executed properly..so I know it worked.. I entered if 4-5 times as I could not extend the length of the beep .. ISY offers different variables on beeps but it made no difference..??? The idea behind the rule is to set a on off switch at my door to allows me to set a condition to allow an "away" mode so that when not home.. Only certain lights would turn on at sunset., (front door, back door garage.. A light or 2 in the home...when I return home.. I disable the Condition . And normal sunset light turn on.. About 15 of them.. The condition is addressed to a light dimmer that is simply plugged in and used as a dummy .. I went with the simpler 2 rule step as I understood it better for now.. Will venture in the ELSE rules when more comfortable ...

Thank you gents for the education .... I'm sure a bit more practice... And time.. Il get to better understand process and logic Matt

Thanks oberkc.. figured I would need to sets 2 scripts.. I have still to take advantage of an else command... somewhere.. was hoping this would be it !. thanks very much.. will give this a shot.. Best ! Matt

First of all the best of the season.. Below is a rule where I have a switch at the door to set my away condition on a home..Im using a RL2 I would like to use this rule in two ways.. day time and if not daytime.. after sunset.. During daylight.. I would like some type of notification that it worked so I have it chirp ..so that works.. the problem is that the ELSE executes at every sunrise.. not when the RL2 is pushed.. is there a way to make the else work only if RL2 is pushed and its after sunset ?.. can we add a condition to an "ELSE" If Control 'Remote Entrance' is switched Off And From Sunrise + 1 second To Sunset - 46 minutes (same day) Then Set 'Condition' On Set 'Foyer' 1 (Beep Duration) Set 'Foyer' 1 (Beep Duration) Set 'Foyer' 1 (Beep Duration) Set 'Foyer' 1 (Beep Duration) ElseThis should only work if RL2 is pushed.. instead.. it runs daily .. Set 'Condition' On Set Scene 'ALL LIGHTS and PLUGS - CONDIT' Fast Off Wait 2 seconds Set Scene 'Sunset OUT OF HOUSE' On Thanks for the help.. Matt

Case close I guess! Thank you so much for your Assistence ...I now have my answer and action item Much appriciated... Matt

Interesting..this could be my ISY Query bug ?..no dimmer key on device..No load either. I figure we could have an option of using the plug w/o a dimmer key ? Is there a way to identify the device as a hard on or off device .. No dimming ! Thx ...

here is something odd.. I went to see the LED status.. the PLUG was set to Off from the day before.. When I went to see it.. the Red LED was on solid.. then I turned on the Plug.. I did hear a little click.. and the light went RED flashing.. the plug showed on via the ISY.. but LED was flashing.. on both turning on or off.. a constant Red LED flash.. not sure if that is the norm ? I also cloned the ISY QUERY scene.. but pointed it to a new scene( list of devices without that PLUG).. all went fine last night.. no anomolies..and the PLUG in question was no longer affect due to not being queried ..

Hi.. It's a http://www.aartech.ca/2472dwh-smarthome ... white.html I set it on to be the flag for when I'm away.. When on..it triggers at sunset my away light scene.. When off.. At sunset it triggers my in house scene I set it off via Ek app or via admin... So couple Scenes are triggered via status of this condition Sunset scene Lights out Scene..(all lights off except the plug.. Remain on to identify away status) I've tested the scenes.. Seems the one that turns the plug off is the Query Scene at 0300am ..hummmm Thx !! Matt

Dual post

Thanks for the responses So to test.. I set the device to on.. Ran the "then" on the device query.. And sets the Device to off.. I'm a newbie..so.. Lee..or anyone.. How do we resync the I/ O devices ? Thanks Matt

I think I have isolated a prob.. I leave a light on to distinguish if I am home or not.. plugon - Away more .. Set plugOff.. Im in the house.. I found that when I am away from home.. (plug ON) .. the Query Scene at 0300am turns the light Plug off .. Is this an expected result of a Query All Scene ? any harm in disabling this Scene ? Alternativly I can reverse the Plug command.. thanks !
