outdoor motion sensor light switch 30min ultrasonic

Then every time the automation is triggered, it restarts which means the delay is restarted.

Set the automation to restart, instead of single mode.

Light will restart if there is motion detected during the time the light is on.Īll you need to do is have a delay in the automation to turn the light off. My setup is like this alias: 'Sensor: Motion, light, Hall <2.5 Turns on Garderob when motion in Hall or Trapp, and below 2.5 lx at Trappĭevice_id: 518774bb5a0e532a83d4eba30cb2f43cĭevice_id: 1104adb2ceeb7216346a4845f30200d1Įntity_id: app_motion_light_levelĭevice_id: 698f00a14d15ddcf7a7449d3e66f7ad9 It would be cool if we could just create attributes on entities and set values to it directly, on the fly, like “turned by motion: true or false”. I could probably create an input boolean to keep the “turned by event” status on the light, but that makes me create another entity which I think is overkill for this (or isn’t it). – Light is on (was turned on by the event): keep it on and reset the off timer and shut it down after 5 minutes from now – Light is off: turn it on and schedule turning it off after 5 minutes – Light is on (for another reason): do nothing I’m want to avoid turning the light off after 5 minutes, when there’s motion, if the light was already on for another reason (another switch, scheduled, or whatever). I want to turn on a light by when motion (or any other event, for all that matters) is triggered on a sensor and turn it off after x minutes (let’s say 5), but only if the light was originally off or extend the 5 minutes before turning it off if the light was turned on by the motion sensor only. I’m still a newbie with HA and probably my question is a basic one, but bear with me, please.
