Status condition to start a program ?

[popnat]

One of my Keypadlinc button triggers my A/C ON and OFF via Global Cache's Itach. I wrote a single program (If keypadlinc button#X is switched on Then Resource A/C ON). I have a similar program for the turning it off.It works well.

 

This button is part of a scene (named "A/C control"). If a turn on this scene, the program does not start. I have to physically press the button to turn on my A/C. I understand that it is not possible to use the status of a scene to trigger a program. Is there a way to get around this ? I would like to be able to turn on/off my A/C control Scene to initiate my programs. Any suggestion ?

It sounds like the Program is triggered with an If Control which is looking for a command to flow from the KeypadLinc. Change the trigger to an If Status which triggers when the button is pressed and triggers when the button is turned On/Off by another Controller.

You're right about the IF Control part. I'll try it to switch it tonight and keep you posted.

 

Thank you !

Hi,

 

I changed the program from an "If Condition" to "If Status". It works fine.

 

Many thanks.
