Sunday at 04:51 PM2 days I see I can change On Level and Ramp Rate manually within EISY and I can change it programmatically by using adjust scene. Is there a way to programmatically adjust the device directly?
Sunday at 05:40 PM2 days I feel I’m missing something but how about putting the device in its own scene and then using adjust scene to make changes?
Sunday at 06:12 PM2 days Author I’m guess I should explain what I’m trying to do. I’m using a battery operated motion sensor to turn on a light. I want the on level to be different at different times of the day. I tried using adjust scene but it seems to not work if I do not have the motion sensor plugged in.

From "x" time to "y" time be "w%" on value. I think I had something like this before, but not with a motion sensor. Just having lights to turn on less bright at times in the middle of the night so not to blind or wake people. Night-MWC - If From 11:30:00PM To Sunrise + 1 hour (next day) Then Set 'MWC' On Level 30% Else Set 'MWC' On Level 100% This is only for overnight and it will be 100% the rest of the time. You would want a different program for each on % you wanted to use during the day.
5 hours ago5 hr Here is a series of programs that I use for a powder room. Three different times / light settings, plus a way to "exit" the bathroom by turning the light off (guests always like to turn it off, but the Motions Sensor would turn it immediately back on). Pretty straightforward similar to @Geddy suggestions above. PROGRAM 1:Powder Rm Motion on Nightime - [ID 0076][Parent 00F5]If From 11:30:00PM To Sunrise (next day) And 'Elk Main House / MD Powder Room' Logical Status is Violated And 'Powder room' Status is Off Then Set 'Powder room' On 35%PROGRAM 2:Powder Rm Motion on Evening - [ID 0075][Parent 00F5]If From Sunset + 30 minutes To 11:30:00PM (same day) And 'Elk Main House / MD Powder Room' Logical Status is Violated And 'Powder room' Status is Off Then Set 'Powder room' On 50%PROGRAM 3:Powder Rm Motion on Daytime - [ID 00FC][Parent 00F5]If From Sunrise To Sunset + 29 minutes and 55 seconds (same day) And 'Elk Main House / MD Powder Room' Logical Status is Violated And 'Powder room' Status is Off Then Set 'Powder room' OnPROGRAM 4 (Auto off if left on)Powder Rm Motion Off - [ID 0045][Parent 00F5]If 'Elk Main House / MD Powder Room' Logical Status is Normal And 'Powder room' Status is not Off Then Wait 7 minutes Set 'Powder room' OffPROGRAM 5 (Exit program, delays motion sensor triggering th lights when exiting)Powder RM Delay on - [ID 0115][Parent 00F5]If 'Powder room' is switched Off Then Disable Program 'Powder Rm Motion on Daytime' Disable Program 'Powder Rm Motion on Nightime' Disable Program 'Powder Rm Motion on Evening' Wait 5 seconds Enable Program 'Powder Rm Motion on Daytime' Enable Program 'Powder Rm Motion on Evening' Enable Program 'Powder Rm Motion on Nightime'
