Motion Triggers Enable/Disable

I use my device motion sensor from dsc plugin for "Light On" with a trigger when motion is detected and another trigger "Light Off" where I set the duration based when "Light On" come true.
I would like Override these triggers when I push manually the switch or double tap and go back when I turn off the switch .....
I read wiki about motion but the sensor from dsc plugin don't work as insteon motion,
Someone for help me with the best practice for this case ?

Re: Motion Triggers Enable/Disable

Are you familiar with the "Disable Trigger" action?

One of the actions when that switch is thrown could be to disable whatever action you don't want happening.

On the action panel to disable the trigger there is a checkbox option and duration you can enter to have it automatically re-enabled later.

Hey Matt

You talk about the auto-on-after, right?

Re: Motion Triggers Enable/Disable

No, the screenshot you posted shows the Turn Off action. qcvictor above is talking about the Disable Trigger action which is under the Server Actions type popup category. Once that action is selected (it allows you to disable Triggers) you will see the auto-Enable option which can be used to have the Trigger that gets disabled automatically re-enabled after a delay.
