Go back to the prior setting

Does the function “Go back to the prior setting” in scenes/commands work for anybody?

I set the door sensor tripped event to turn on a nearby light for 5 minutes and then “Go back to prior setting”, but it always turns the light off regardless whether it was on or off before the event. Any ideas?

So, has anyone seen this issue? Or is it just me?

Haven’t tried it in a few months. It didn’t work for me back then, so I gave up on it.

I’d expect it to be fixed by now…

Something similar for me:
I have the camera turn on a light and take an archive picture every 14 hours.

Every few days, it leaves the light on after taking the picture.

I know this because I have an alert set if I leave more than 0 lights on.

I log in, turn off the light and it’s fine for a few days. Then, it takes a pic and leaves the light on again.

No solution to date.

The " “Go back to the prior setting” in scenes/commands " it’s working in 602 release.
The backend for multiple events it’s implemented, we’re discoussing about a simple way to integrate it in the web ui as for the non-techie user to can take advanced of it also.

I shouldn’t be cross-posting like this, but since the “Vera won’t abide by the ‘go back to prior setting’” issue has been raised in multiple threads…

…I’ll simply mention that it’s not working for me now in .616.

Do a search for “scene timer” or “prior setting” to see others’ comments.
I submitted a ticket on this, and have not tested this functionality in any other firmware revision.

We did re-write this in the new Luup version, which is online now, and have heard no problems with it.

Again, not everyone has upgraded to Luup version yet, give it some time to get a critical mass…
