Reset timer if door is opened again

[toy4rick]

Hey all,

I have an outlet that turns on via a RM - Rule when a door is opened. Another Rule that sees the outlet as being turned on, waits 5 mins then turn the outlet off.

My issue is, the timer is not reset if the door is open sometime later before the 5 mins is up

What is a better way to set this up to allow the timer to be rest when the door is open and only shut off the outlet when a full 5 mins has passed?

Maybe a WebCore Piston is a better way to go, anyone have a sample Piston?
Edit: Here is what I gen'd up, thought?

Thanks in advance
Rick

that Cancel is the "trick".

It "invalidates" the entire FALSE action if TRUE occurs before the timer.

Or this fractionally more complex example, because it tests 3 motion sensors...

Cancel doesn't show UNTIL you enter a number and press TAB (or click outside the field.)

I'll play with it tonight
