How to run program based on status of Hue bulbs?

[danbutter]

Running polyglot v2 with the Hue nodeserver and in the AC I can see the status of the bulbs.

I have two lamps on my headboard and a 6 button KPL in my bedroom where one of the buttons toggles a scene.

I'm trying to turn off that scene (MasterHeadboardLights) when the bulbs are (both) off.

I made a program that says:

MasterHeadboardSceneOff - [ID 002A][Parent 0001]

If
        'Hue Bridge / Left Light' Status is 0.0000%
    And 'Hue Bridge / Right Light' Status is 0.0000%
 
Then
        Set 'Upstairs / MasterHeadboardLights' Off
 
Else
   - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

 

But it doesn't work.

What am I missing?

I can use my phone to turn the scene on and off and see the KPL key light up and go dark.

Running 5.0.14.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

I have none now but...

Can you use "switched" instead?
Can you use "Off"?
Can you use < 1% ? Why so many decimal places? I suspect ISY is showing you a rounded off value and never really matched 0.0000%

BTW: Your AND specifies you must have both off. This will not work with "Switched" triggering. Two devices are never triggered at the same time with ISY logic.

Well I feel silly. I looked at polyglot and it said connected, but it wasn't. I restarted it and the program worked.

I tried a couple different things and I stopped on less than 1% when I thought of restarting polyglot, but I think my original program would work.

Just FYI the decimal places were the only option.... I didn't add them all.

Thanks for the reply.
