Kentinada Posted December 7, 2019 Posted December 7, 2019 I have a program alerts me when my garage door goes up or down with a text. See attached screenshot. I want to add to the Then clause to turn on the scene for garage ceiling lights. I just replaced the old conventional 3-way switches with INSTEON 2477S switches. I have a scene in called Garage Ceiling Lights and both switches are controllers in the scene. Manually, the scene works fine. I can turn the lights on or off from either switch. I tried adding the commands to turn on this scene at the end of the Then clause, added a Wait 2 minutes followed by a turn the scene off command. When I tested it by opening the garage door, the lights came on momentarily but then turned off. When I looked at the program status, it was not in a wait state. So I clearly don't have this right. How can I implement this desired functionality? Thanks!
Kentinada Posted December 7, 2019 Author Posted December 7, 2019 So I just tried only adding the command: Set 'Garage Ceiling Lights' On to the Then clause and it works fine. The lights come on and stay on. Do I have to switch them off after 5 minutes in a separate program?
Kentinada Posted December 7, 2019 Author Posted December 7, 2019 Well I feel pretty silly. I thought I was setting the wait for 2 minutes and I really set it for 2 seconds! Duh! The Wait for 2 minutes and then turn the scene off works fine. My apologies for dumb questions.
