On the rewrite note. I have found in the past that programs can get out-of-sync with their tokenized codes at some weird times (usually transferring systems) . I found the easy fix for that was to click/select each line of program code so that the parameters are all found in the edit section below and then click on update, so the ISY code compiler regrabs all the token codes and refreshes them. Do all lines of code and then click Save for the program. It's an easy to do trial.
Of course you may want to disable and then re-enable your program before saving, also. It could be magically disabled and may explain the "works anyway".

IIRC you posted you did a search for any other usages of your trigger variable. It really seems like there is another hidden program changing your variable on you.

Yes.

I had requested some form of indexing variables, years ago, but other expansions got in the way.

"Control" detects the device pushbuttons have changed, while 'Status' detects the state of the electronics controlled from anywhere, has changed..

You can increase the size of memory java is permitted and it will last longer but that will be temporary also.

It appears you used Integer variable instead of State variables. Only State variables will trigger programs to run.

Have you allowed enough time for the Linking mode to reset or reset it manually?
 
Put the MS in linking mode and examine the options. Some can lock the MS out after motion for quite a long time.
Have you tried a "Restore" on the device after it was set up?
Can you show a screen shot here of your option page  after putting it in linking mode?

Yup. Right click on any program name in the program tree and select Search, Programs, pick one. Keep clicking it repeatedly until you don;t see any update onscreen, and then it will be looping back to the beginning again.
 
ooops! Select Device, not program.

Too much complication for the usual and typical triggered light timer.

A condensed version

if Motion is switched on
Then
turn on light
Wait 2 minutes
turn off light

Else
turn off light...this handles some rare cases that other lines in if cause the Wait to be cancelled mis time out.

When an if condition is triggered it causes the program to start over. 2 minutes can last forever.

I would use "set" uppers to 20%. It is much more effective in Alexa lingo.
 
also
"Turn On Uppers to 20%"
 
I also use Turn ON and Turn OFF for almost everything.
Create a few programs with different results like this
Turn On dim uppers
Turn On bright uppers
Turn On very dim uppers
Turn Off uppers.
Make Alexa think they are all different devices.
I found the percentages were always flakey.

Did you know there are two ANDs and two ORs. Individual lines can each have their own AD/OR logic and there are also two distinct and separate AND and OR buttons that are used with parenthesis. Then you can move each bracket up and down to where you like.

The original name of the scene wasn't "Auto DR" was it?
