Repeat trigger

Hello,
I am a new user of Indigo (still in trial period) switching from Vera.
I did set up my garage door opener through Indigo using a ZWave relay and a ZWave garage door sensor.
I also set up a trigger to get a notification when the door is opened and it is all working well.
Now I would like to get a repeat notification every 15 minutes that the garage door is still open until the door is closed.
Any help on how to set this up would be appreciated.

Thanks
-Roland

Hi Roland.

Welcome to Indigo.

Create a Timer using the timers & pesters plugin (which you might need to enable first).

Set it to 15 minutes.

Create a new trigger that runs when the timer expires. Give it two actions - 1 to notify you the door is open, and 1 to restart the timer.

In your existing trigger on the garage door, add a new action to start the timer.

And finally create a trigger on garage door closes, with an action to stop the timer.
