Problem with using Motion Sensor to control a switch

Featured Replies

Posted

I am using the Motion Sensor to control a switch using ISY99 program.

If the rule said Set Scene 'Laundry Room' On, it does work. However if I change the rule to say Set Device 'Laundry Room' On, it works everytime. I used "scene test" and it is working fine.

 

Here is the Rule and Event log. 14.7C.1E is the motion sensor and 1B.46.16 is the switch.

 

NOT WORKING

If
       Control 'Laundry Room - Sensor' is switched On

Then
       Set Scene 'Laundry Room' On

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

RF devices are somewhat unique in that they send 4 messages when motion is sensed rather than the 2 normally associated with a Scene On (Motion On). Based on the Not Working trace it looks like the motion sensor was still sending part of the motion on sequence when the Scene On from the Program was issued. Try adding a 1-2 second Wait before issuing the Set Scene On in the Program.

The "wait" does help! Thanks Lee.
