I would like some of the lights in my kitchen to activate when it's dark and motion is detected, unless they were turned on by switch press already.
I have a Centralite Elegance system and tried the following rules.
Set ouput on when Kitchen light switch is pressed
10 WHENEVER Kitchen Cans [24 (B8)] IS TURNED ON BY SOME EXTERNAL DEVICE
THEN TURN Kit Light Switch (Out 64) ON
THEN ANNOUNCE Alarm Acknowledged (vm213) --This is for debugging only
Set ouput off when Kitchen light switch is pressed
11 WHENEVER Kitchen Cans [24 (B8)] IS TURNED OFF BY SOME EXTERNAL DEVICE
THEN TURN Kit Light Switch (Out 64) OFF
Motion in Kitchen @ night turn cans on for 5 munites
12 WHENEVER Nook Motion (Zn 54) BECOMES NOT SECURE
AND IT IS DARK OUTSIDE
AND Kit Light Switch (Out 64) STATE IS OFF
THEN SET Kitchen Cans [24 (B8)] TO 60%
The communitcations between the M1 and the Centralite work fine, I can operate the lights with rules and M1XEP lighting screen shows the changes when the switches on the Elegance is used.
The problem seems to be with the "WHENEVER Kitchen Cans [24 (B8)] IS TURNED ON BY SOME EXTERNAL DEVICE" rule. I assumed this would apply to switch presses, but I cannont find any information on it.
