I have a silly question, I might not be awake enough this Saturday morning
I’m creating a very simple scene but I don’t see a way to disable the scene itself. There is a « Start scene » but I don’t see its opposite… Am I crazy or does it not exist?
My scene: since I don’t have a heater connected with a display, it’s plugged into a Niko wall socket with Zigbee.
By clicking « Start scene », I’d like my heater to turn on and for the scene to stop permanently as soon as the temperature = 21°C.
Trigger: every 30 seconds
Get the state of my temperature sensor
Turn on the outlet
Continue only if the sensor state is above 21°C
Turn off the outlet
Désactiver la scène jusqu'au prochain déclenchement manuel ← doesn’t exist.
I can work around it with a virtual button but I find it becomes complicated for something that should be simple.
And if I don’t disable the scene, it will keep checking the temperature every 30 seconds and the bathroom will always be above 21°C for no reason.
Is it normal that when I launch a scene manually, and it is supposed to trigger every 30 seconds, it only does it once and not every 30 seconds?
I did a test with sending message(s):
I click on start the scene from the widget.
Trigger scheduled every 30 seconds
I send a test message
I receive the message 1x and not every 30 seconds
I suppose you have to « activate the scene » and not simply click « start the scene » for it to work.
Thanks for the link.
That’s already what I set up so it’s comfortable every morning when I work. But unfortunately that doesn’t solve my problem of getting a temperature at a specific instant. And for the scene to then stop permanently. No time criteria or anything.
Actually, I think I’m missing a « while true ». As long as the temperature isn’t 22°C, I stay in the scene.
The « Continue only if » option only checks the condition once. If it’s not 22°C, the scene stops but the radiator will keep running and never stop.
Final objective: to have a button at the entrance of the bathroom. I click it, the scene starts and it stops at the desired temperature.
Why not a scene with a perpetual trigger (temperature < 100 degrees).
You first check if the radiator’s plug is switched on and if that’s the case, you check that the temperature is above 22°C (continue only if temp > 22), in which case you turn it off.
For turning it on, a scene that triggers when you press the button, simply.
What do you think?
