I’m trying to figure out how to turn off the lights after they have been turned on by a family member. I have a light that is constantly left on. Can I create a scene that is triggered when the light is turned on, and then turn it off after 15 minutes?
I’ve created a scene and added an “on” event. And I can add a timer, say every 30 minutes. But does this mean the light will be turned off every 30 minutes? How is the timer related to the event? Seems that this might result in the light being turned on by a person and then immediately turned off by the vera, if it’s at Vera’s 30 minute interval.
Create a scene that triggers using the Events tab when your light is turned on. In the command tab set the light to turn off after 30 minutes.
This can still pose some problems if the light is turned on/off many times within the original 30 minutes I think you may end up an 30 min off event for every time the light is turned on. Since the command if “off” maybe that won’t cause you any problems.
