Rule machine : trigger sequence

[pseudonym]

@kahn-hubitat

rule
trigger: front door unlocked
action:
wait for event contact opened timeout = xxx
wait for event motion timeout =xxx
turn on light.

only issue is how you still may need some switches as settings or else after it times out it will goto next wait and still eventually turn on light

Create a local string variable (i.e. Timeout) then after each Wait add the following:

Set Timeout to %device%
IF (Timeout = 'timeout') Exit Rule
