I added two other RGBW bulbs to the cog to see what would happened.
The RGBW bulbs ("Driveway Light Left" & "Driveway Light Right") switch to CT mode properly when the cog fires. When it reverses the bulbs just turned turned off.
@bptworld : Is it expected that the "IP Ping" only logs success/failure but doesn't run any actions?
I found [Code Freeze] Web Pinger and it says that functionality was moved to Event Engine, but in Event engine it doesn't seem to do anything other than output logs.
Lifx strips that use Color Temperature stopped working about two EE versions ago. If I set them to use Color, it works. Strange thing is, when to cog fires and I use CT, the motion sensor fires but the light doesn't show up in the log, even in the OFF state.
Hi! First @bptworld thanks a ton for all the apps and the work you do. Just saw a comment on the old Wake Me Up thread that you do all this post-stroke and it makes me even more impressed. I think I have 2/3 of your apps running on my C7 but it leads me to always think about how different peoples brains think differently and what makes sense to others doesn’t make sense to me
So I’m trying to move my son’s wake up routine for school days over to EE from WMU.
I set up the GCal Search and have it set to turn OFF a virtual switch on days there is “No School” otherwise it stays ON by default.
So I want to make sure the following EE will fire on M-F at 6am and sun up his light group and the clip lamp along with turning off his white noise machine. I included a screen shot of the virtual switch to Enable/Disable…so here’s the brain difference question….
If that switch is ON the cog will run and if it is OFF it won’t correct? It doesn’t have to be “turned on” to run right? It’s more an added condition like “if this switch is on then run cog” correct? Just making sure because the WMU version of this runs rock solid but since I added the V switch it hasn’t run even with the switch on.
If I’m misunderstanding it then I suppose I can just add the switch as a condition up at the start of the cog.
Conditions
***** Cog will fire when ALL Condition are true (Using AND) - By Days - [Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday] - as Restriction: true - Certain Time - Wed Apr 20 06:00:00 EDT 2022 - Repeat: false - Schedule: NA
I have a cog that is triggered by a motion sensor being active. It turns on a light to a random color. Then once motion is inactive, it turns off the light. If the light is already on when motion is detected, I'd like the cog to do nothing.
I've tried using the light being on as a restriction. This works fine for preventing the cog from firing. But when the light is off and the cog fires, the cog ends up restricting itself after turning the light on (it no longer turns off when motion is inactive).
Was there a change to how the restrictions work though? Or is there a different way to program what I wanted? It still seems to work the same way after update.
