Lights Flashing - Motion Sensor

Featured Replies

Posted

Hi,

 

I have a 3 very simple programs set up.(Below) There are two lights, on the same switch. When the lights turn on, they flash three times. I had the electrician come out and look and he switched around the bulbs (florescent vs. old school) and it changed the flashing order.

 

I have a similar problem in my mud room and pantry. I am at a loss. Any ideas?

If
        Control 'Devices / Motion Sensors / MS DHall LR' is switched On
     Or Control 'Devices / Motion Sensors / MS DHall Stairs' is switched On
    And From     7:30:05AM
        To       5:59:00PM (same day)
 
Then
        Set Scene 'Scenes / Inside Lights / Downstairs Hall 3 way' On
        Wait  3 minutes 
        Set Scene 'Scenes / Inside Lights / Downstairs Hall 3 way' Off
 
Else
   - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

You need to add parenthesis around the 2 motion sensor conditions. For example:

 

If
        (Control 'Devices / Motion Sensors / MS DHall LR' is switched On
     Or Control 'Devices / Motion Sensors / MS DHall Stairs' is switched On)
    And From    10:30:00PM
        To       7:30:00AM (next day)
 
Do the lights only flash when triggered by the motion sensors, or do they flash when you manually turn them on?

When do the lights flash three times, when each program executes? What does "it changed the flashing order" mean.
