I am trying to trigger a cloud meshbot scene to run every 30 minutes between sunset and sunrise. I think what I have done is correct but the trigger seems to run during the day as well. Any ideas?
Hi @blacey
We created a ticket on our side to test and verify. I’m expecting to get the updates today. I will keep you posted
Hi @blacey
My apologies for the delay. We’ve conducted a series of tests on our side and I can confirm that the trigger works as expected. If possible - could you please share an Action part, so we could examine and test it as well?
Hi @AntonSorokin, thank you for confirming correct functionality and the follow up…
My symptom was that the z-wave landscape lights were not turning off during the day once I implemented the scene above that ensures lights are on every 30 minutes during the night because I had some reliability problems with them turning on as well (i.e. this is a hack work-around). Probably coincidence and not causality but that made me think that the scene was triggering outside the defined time.
That said, there is another issue with trying to implement the trigger logic above. From some unknown reason, the hour offset can not be set to 0 with some number of minutes so this means that there is no way run the interval trigger from sunset to sunrise or even from 1 minute after sunset to 1 minute before sunrise. Please correct my misunderstanding if it is incorrect or let me know if there is a better way to achieve my goal.
Thanks,
Bruce
