I have this program... my intent is to increment a variable no more than 1 time per hour if a sMotionOff = 1 . (sMotionOff is set to 1 if all motion detectors are off and 0 if any motion detectors detect motion.

My notify in the then section appears to run even if the time is not on the hour.

What am I missing?

Originally I put the sVariable first with the schedule times after  like if sVariable <> 0 and time = 1 or time = 2 etc...   but I felt like the

program would be running a lot and if I put the times first it would only run once every hour...

AllMotionSetCalcTime - [ID 0039][Parent 0032]

If
        Time is  1:00:00AM
     Or Time is  2:00:00AM
     Or Time is  3:00:00AM
     Or Time is  4:00:00AM
     Or Time is  5:00:00AM

     Or Time is 10:00:00PM
     Or Time is 11:00:00PM
     Or Time is 12:00:00PM
    And $sMotionOff is 1
 
Then
        $sNomotion += 1
        Run Program 'AutoVacationSet' (If)
        $iHourCount  = $sNomotion
        Resource 'QuickGeneric'
 
Else
   - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')
 
iAllMotionOffCalcTime increments sNoMotion to number of hours that no motion has been detected.
Used to determine how long since motion detectors have been All Off

Put an AND pair of parentheses arround all your OR logic lines.  It is in the upper edit box.

Thanks larryllix  I seldom have a need to use parenthesis .. and frankly forgot they were available ....

The great thing about getting old is that you get the learn so much every day .... even if you learned it yesterday !!!!
