If switch was on at least 30 seconds?

[mikeisflash]

After being on Hubitat for over a year, I’m finally moving my automations over to Rule Machine from webcore. There is one automation I’m struggling to recreate.

How do recreate “switch was on at least 30 seconds” as a conditional action?

Define two local variables.

Thanks. I didn’t get deep enough into RM to learn about variables. Guess I’ll do that next!

The reason it has to be done that way is that Variable Math (e.g., the subtraction, and the comparison) can only be done with variables, not time functions like “now()”.
