How can I make an action happen if 3 of 10 selected switches are on? Their all virtual switches. It's to make sure that more than 30% of moisture sensors detect low water condition before watering plants to prevent over watering.
You can do this in rule machine. Here's the very basics. there might be an easier way also
Trigger:
If any switch (sw1, sw2,......sw10) toggles
Action:
Variable = 0
if sw1 = On, variable +1
if sw2 = On, variable +1
.
.
.
.If sw10 = on variable +1
If variable >= 3 then do something.
else do something
In your case maybe its wet/dry instead of switch or some other sensor.
Just use my app.
Use the switch group option and set the threshold to 3. The app will create a virtual device that can be used in your rules. The app's child device will only show on if 3 or more switches in the group are on.
