I want to figure out what do do with my MS. Thanks, E

The recommended solution is a 2-second delay in any program. But, I'm not sure that that's a solutions. I've experienced more than one All On and, lately, some partial On's. The only program with a MS as a trigger has a 26 hr and 5 min delay prior to the Then and Else statements, respectively.

 

But, not everyone has experienced the phenomenon. Scenes whit the MS as a controller seem to not be a problem.

Stu, I think I will place the ms into on/off mode and just use a scene.

You'll find response time much quicker, especially meaningful if you're walking into a very dark area. A limitation is not being able to bypass the MS, but that can be accomplished bu adding a second device.

 

And don't forget Michel's advice. I actually induced an All On by having a program where the trigger button was manipulated by the program. It occurred when I tapped the button rapidly a couple of times. Solution: a 1 second delay between each statement.

Stu,

The MS is set as a controller of the pantry lights scene, but the MS is set up for On only.  I have the following program to turn the lights off.  I think I will set the MS into on/off mode and pull the MS out of the program.  I want to keep the program in case the lights are turned on by the switch.  My daughter is 4 and may not be tall enough to be in the MS range.

Thanks,

E
