Programming Question...

Recommended Posts

I have several programs within the ISY that are triggered with 

 

If 

        Control 'device' is switched Off

   Or Control 'device' is switched Fast Off

 

Then

   ........

 

These programs work well when I physically turn off the switch with a single or double tap. However the programs do not run when I turn off the same device either:

 

 - using another program with the command "Set "device" Off"; or

 

 - using Mobilinc to turn off the device!

 

Is there some other logic I should be using within the ISY to recognize that the device has been turned off by a 'Set device Off' command or Mobilinc so that my programs run?

If Control is triggered when the physical device is operated.  That is the function of "If Control".  Operating the device by other means does not cause "If Control" to trigger.

 

Need to use If Status to monitor the device for activity from both physical operation and remote operation by Set 'xxxxx' Off

Thanks for the quick reply...

 

Does a If Status statement ( "Status 'device' is Off") only trigger when there is a change of status? If so, then great... but if not, then my programs would be constantly triggered when the lights are off which would not be a good thing...
