log for the bond events
log for the switch events
these logs show the command is happening much faster than the actual light turning on, i'm so confused. With my eyes I can definitely see the digital events resulting in the lights turning on faster but you wouldn't guess that with these logs...
also despite having logging on for these basic rules, i don't see any event history
You should see this in the Logs tab, in sequence. It is a lot easier to put things together that way then looking at the separate events logs.
Here is what I get on a motion sensor trigger, using Lights On Motion Plus app, with a GE dimmer similar age to your switch. At the end I manually turn it off then on, and back off again.

In addition to @neonturbo 's questions:
Can you show the automations you're using in HE to turn on the fans using the Jasco switches? Screen shot of the contents of the automation(s)?
And what driver are you using for the Jasco switches?
thank you to all helping btw, the level of guidance and support in this community has been incredible
Just for kicks...change the driver of the switch to JasonJoel's GE Enbrighten driver:
That gives you a virtual button for each press of your switch - on = button 1, off = button 2, on double tap = button 3, etc.
Then change your automation to use the button events from the swtich, rather than the "on/off' events that you're using now.
I use above setup in a number of automations and they run w/out issue.
if I initiate the button press from hubitat, it's much faster. here are the logs
Don't forget about HOLD for each button for a total of 10.
I'm stumped...logs don't lie, it's working immediately. You must be lying, so we won't talk to you any more, and you will not be invited to the pot luck tomorrow.
I try to use humor to deflect when I'm too dumb to help.
I control all of my fans via Bond and Pico button presses, and I don't have any of these strange delays. Sorry can't help more. I'll try setting up one of my Jasco switches button press to initiate a fan command via Bond and see what happens.
It's all good. Thank you so much for the help. Bond said said to try using http put requests via local API. I built them in webcore but it resulted in the same delay. It's perflexing. I'll even record a video to show the the delay lol
OK, set up one of my Jasco switches to control fan light via button 3 (double tap on) using Jason Joel's driver. Using Simple Automations app:
Actual response time is about 1s+, just slightly slower than Pico which is less than a second. Neither would result in any family member complaining about delays, though neither is as fast as physical switch controlling a light directly. My Bond is at the other end of the house from the fan light I was testing with.
Still not sure why you're getting such long delays...let's remove Bond from the equation. Can you set up an automation that doesn't use the Bond - automate some other switch turning on when you turn on your living room switch that you want to use to control the lights.
I don't think this is relevant here, the OP is trying to send one command to one fan. You have your other thread describing this problem, let Smckdwn989 get help with their exact issue.
I think this is a good idea. Eliminate the Bond from the equation.
In addition, what about using either Simple Automations (my first choice with this easy rule you have) or Rule Machine and see if either one are noticeably better or the same.
@danfox52 or @stephen_nutt I think you guys use Bond, have you ever seen lags like what OP is describing here? I don't use it so I can't say what normal behavior is like.
I use button controller 5.1 rule with an inovelli wall switch to control some zigbee bulbs,and it's practically instant response. Just for the hell of it try changing to button controller.
It isn’t. I didn’t intend to post here. Deleting.
Not sure if this data point helps or not. Lutron Pico activating a fan light through a Bond bridge. It is almost instantaneous. The fan is also quick to respond.
I switched to the Inovelli fan switches about 9 months ago but the error messages don't look familiar
I use bond and I have not... I also use picos to activate the light and it works very quickly.
i feel like I need to switch to picos and that it's related to my switches... the good news is I can use the old switches in some rooms that don't have smart switches so i can "sort of" justify to the wife.
i did change the rule to turn on my living room switches. here is the log
i wouldn't call it instant as there was a bit of a delay with the other switch (it's directly next to this switch) turning on but it wasn't nearly as bad as the bond.
If I was to go pico, I would need the hub and 3 pico's do they have a bundle around picos?
