  1. Sorry, not very versed on where to look for the data and history; I went to Programs / Summary and see the listing of programs with their last run time and last finish time. Is there a way to see history, or am I limited to just the last event? The only program that highlights is the Daytime Motion program. I am going to also disable the "daytime" MS unit, change the light bulbs, and then turn them on using the togglelinc. Maybe it is not the scenes on programs, maybe faulty lights or switch. I will let you know.
  2. Yikes! Lots of tweeking for something that seemed so simple in the beginning Here is what I have done. For the time being, I have disabled the "night" program and will only focus on the "day time" program. I have changed the MS device setting to timeout at 11 minutes. I have confirmed that this MS is only a part of the "daytime" program. I have removed the THEN and ELSE statement that references the scene and replaced it with " Set 'Master Bathroom / Mstr Bath Closet Light Switch' ON in the THEN command and Set 'Master Bathroom / Mstr Bath Closet Light Switch' OFF in the ELSE command. I triggered the MS and the light did come on at the 89% level. However, after 2 min 15 sec, it dropped to a 10% level. Weird. I then triggered the MS again and it went back to 89%. I'm beginning to wonder if it wouldn't be a better idea to scrape all existing programs and scenes (day & night) and just start from the beginning with only the daytime program and the one MS. Thoughts? Thank you upfront for all the help / time you've given. Also, any idea how to post a "screen shot" or image in these posts? I've tried using the Snipping tool in Windows, but get an error message that the post doesnt accept this format. I just thought that if I could give a picture of settings, programs, etc, that it would be easier to diagnose.
  3. I don't have any other programs that use this MS. The scene 'Master Bathroom / Master Bath Closet light' sets the togglelinc to 89%. The togglelinc that controls the light is not set as a controller for any device, but is a responder to the 2 scenes I am trying to work out and an All Off scene. Do you believe that I should just drop the THEN command "Set Scene 'Master Bathroom / Master Bath Closet light' On" and replace it with just something like "Set Master bath closet light switch ON" ? As I stated previously, I am new to MS and starting to understand them.
  4. As many has suggested, the "night" program may be an issue. My hope with this program is that from Midnight to 5 am if the MS detects motion, it will turn on the scene "Night bathrm pathway" which sets the light to 40% brightness and then turns off after 1 min 30 seconds. The MS is located in the master bedroom If Control 'Master Bed Room / Mstr Bedroom-Sensor' is switched On And From 12:00:00AM To 5:00:00AM (same day) Then Set Scene 'Night bathrm pathway' On Else Wait 1 minute and 30 seconds Set Scene 'Night bathrm pathway' Off
  5. dbuss - here is the MS options settings: the On/Off commands box is NOT checked, however; the Timeout period is only 1 minute. Do you believe that by increasing it to 11 minutes may solve the issue?
  6. I am new when it comes to motion sensors. I have a Togglelinc switch / light in my master bedroom closet that I want to contol with 2 different sensors. The premise is that one sensor (located in the closet) would control on / off during the day time, while the second one, (located in the master bedroom) would control it during the night. The daytime sensor program is: If From 5:00:05AM To 11:30:00PM (same day) And Control 'Master Bathroom / Mstr Bath Closet Sensor' is switched On Then Set Scene 'Master Bathroom / Master Bath Closet light' On Wait 10 minutes Set Scene 'Master Bathroom / Master Bath Closet light' Off Else Wait 1 minute Set Scene 'Master Bathroom / Master Bath Closet light' Off My issue is that the light will often turn on, then immediately turn off, then turn back on. I am trying to get the program to turn on the light if it senses motion between 5 am and 11:30 pm same day and stay on as long as it senses motion, then turn off 10 minutes after the last motion was detected. Any thoughts on where my program logic fails?
