Here is my set of rules to achieve the following goals:
- Dusk to Dawn switch is turned on when illuminance <= 5 for my weather station
- When Dusk to Dawn switch is on turn on the outside lights for 5 minutes when any of these happen
- When someone comes home
- A door is unlocked
- A door is opened (lights stay on until 5 minutes after door is closed)
I ended up doing this via an Action, Conditional Rule, and Triggered Rule:
This Conditional Rule has been replaced with the one in the next post
note that the delays in the screenshots are at 15 seconds from testing I increased the Action delay to 5 minutes and the repeat delay to 4:55 I would be interested if there is a better way to keep the lights on while the door remains open than just repeatedly triggering the Action to reset the delay.
