I've made awesome progress on my home automation project and these boards are so helpful. Does anyone have suggestions on making sense of true/false arguments in the indigo 5 application?
Goal: If any upstairs light is on (or dimmed/on more than 1%) I'd like to create a variable called "upstairs_lights_on" that would be true and trigger button #4 on my Keypadlinc to on. I understand it's a multipart setup, but I can't get the True/False to work correctly -- if all upstairs lights are off, it still says the variable is true.
My Thinking:
Part #1 - Trigger: If Variable Change "upstairs_lights_on" changes; ANY conditions: master lights on; guest bedroom lights on; stairway lights on; action: set to true. (is this what I want to do here? This is been the most confusing part of indigo I've tried to wrap my head around)
Part #2 - Trigger: If above is true, action would be to turn on KPL dimmer button #4 to on.
Part #3 - Schedule: Run Part #1 and #2 every 10-30 minutes.
I know tracking status on KPL dimmers is not widely recommended, but I'd like to know if my goal is possible and figure out the best way to do it. Also, I'm open to feedback or suggestions as to why I shouldn't move forward with this idea.
Thanks!
