Program runs manually fine, does not complete when triggered

[ewind]

The program below runs manually every time. When the program is triggered the Coach Lites On Night executes, and the Set Sunroom Lamp Dimmer On executes but the next step after wait 4 minutes does not. Any ideas? I am trying putting all steps in one program rather than calling the other 2 programs but not sure why it works when running it manually from console.

 

Driveway coach lights night - [iD 0009][Parent 0007]

 

If

        Status  'Driveway-Opened' is not On

    And From    Sunset 

        To      Sunrise (next day)

 

Then

        Run Program 'Coach Lites On Night' (Then Path)

        Wait  37 seconds

        Set 'Sunroom Lamp Dimmer' On

        Wait  4 minutes 

        Run Program 'Coach Lites Off Night' (Then Path)

        Wait  17 seconds

        Set 'Sunroom Lamp Dimmer' Off

 

Else

   - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

Because the "Driveway-Opened" changes status before the Wait 4 Minutes expires.

 

If you want that to work, put your Then in a second program and have them this program run the Then of the second program.

Thanks. The driveway-opened event is a trigger to start Then steps. Im not sure what you mean it changes status. The driveway-open is a 2 seond event generated from an Insteon open / close sensor if I am understanding the log correctly...

When the status of the trigger changes, the program is re-evaluated. Thus, it stops all action of the Then and will run the Else, even if it is empty.

Ah OK thank you. I will create 2nd program that executes all of the steps once triggered.
