Hi,
I am putting together my item list for Halloween. This is the desired effect for a trick or treater coming to my door. I am a little confused on how long it should run & reset's etc.
Motion sensor 1 is set off by person.
Questions:
Thanks,
Rich
I am putting together my item list for Halloween. This is the desired effect for a trick or treater coming to my door. I am a little confused on how long it should run & reset's etc.
Motion sensor 1 is set off by person.
- Porch Light Dims (100% down to 25%)
- Driveway lights dim (100% down to 25%)
- Entry way light dims (100% down to 25%)
- Scary Music volume increases (from 5% up to 100%)
- Fog Machine starts blowing fog (Insteon Appliance Link 1 on porch)
- Fog machine powered from garage
- Strobe light 1 turns itself on (Insteon Appliance Link 2- shared)
- Strobe light 2 turns itself on (Insteon Appliance Link 2 - shared)
- Orange Strand Light turns itself on (Insteon Appliance Link 3 – Shared)
- "Flaming Pot" light turns itself on (Insteon Appliance Link 3 – Shared)
Questions:
- How long should the event run (to long could be annoying – 2 minutes)?
- Fog machine will stop after 30-45 seconds.
- What happens if the event is running & the motion sensor is tripped again while the event is happening?
- If someone stays until the end of the event, then the motion sensor catches them again, should the cycle start again?
- Should there be a minimum reset time (it wont go off for 5 minutes)?
Thanks,
Rich
