I have a new setup on my stove using hidden contact sensors to identify when burners are on:
I'd like to use Event Engine to turn on an LED strip that will be at the base of cabinets in the kitchen. My goal is:
Between Sunset and Sunrise: Turn on LED strip when any of the stove contact sensors are open (burner on), turn off when none are open. When on set to Red, level 50.
Between Sunrise and Sunset: Same as above, but set light to incandescent, level 50.
We are currently closed for the holidays, but will be reopening in January for a full season of guided tours. Please remember that the Piano Light Event is a Special Exhibit and requires an additional entry fee.
In January we are also proud to announce a new exhibit developed in close collaboration with @bptworld - our "Event Engine - Cogs in Motion 4D Video Extravaganza."* (*Warning: Audience members in the "Cog Zone" (first three rows) may get wet during the leak detection automations.)
I've tried to set up a cog that uses contact sensors and power levels, and it will start when power goes above the setpoint, but goesn't reverse when power goes below the setpoing. Go ahead, tell me, it's me again, isn't it? [sigh]
I have a cog that is set to run actions in an RM rule. It used to work perfectly but a few days ago (yes this had to happen pre Christmas ) I noticed that the cog failed to run the rule action despite the cog having fired.
The entry from the logs show that it is should be running the rule action but nothing happens.

I tried again with just a a simple action of turning on a switch which works fine. But if the same action is contained in a rule, running the rule from the cog will not do anything anymore.
Nothing has changed so I'm puzzled. And my front lights won't turn off by themselves anymore.
Second, screen shots of logs are much easier for Bryan and other developers to read than text captures, so he'd probably appreciate you using screen shots for logs.
Thirdly, a screen shot of the cog's description from inside the app (like below) will likely he helpful to him.
