Can ISY and Elk do this?

[Traditore]

My kitchen lights turn off at 9:30PM every day, but I'd like it if they could stay on if Elk has detected motion in the last five minutes. Can I accomplish this through programs? If so, how?

If
       Elk Zone 'Kitchen Motion' is Violated

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

Else
       Wait  15 minutes 
       Set Scene 'Kithchen Island S' Off

 

Using the Else clause means that the counter doesn't begin until the motion stops. No need for a scheduled 9:30 off at all. The lights will turn off 15 minutes after no motion regardless of what time it is.

Thank you for your reply. But I don't think this will work. Before 9:30, I need the lights to remain on, regardless of motion in the kitchen.

If
       Elk Zone 'Dining Motion' is Normal
   And From     9:15:00PM
       To       6:30:00PM (next day)

Then
       Wait  15 minutes 
       Set Scene 'Dining Rm Chand S' Off

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

 

If no one activates the motion, the timer will start at 9:15pm and the light will shut off at 9:30. If motion is detected the timer gets terminated. When the zone returns to nomral (motion stops), the timer starts again. Between 6:30pm and 9:15pm, this program does nothing.

I'll let you know if it works as expected.
