Hi All,
Following a legacy post on here about sensing when a washer was done, I bought an Solo iMeter and plugged my washing machine into it. I then set up the trigger for current draw when it goes below 000.050, to activate an X-10 plug in chime in another part of the house, so I know when the washer is done. This works, but the problem is that this trigger goes off about every 3 hours or so, even though the washer hasn't been on? This makes no sense, because the washer current draw is 000.000 when it is off? I tried putting an addition condition in the trigger itself, to be only within 30 min of when the current draw was over 000.500, but there isn't a way to add that condition. So, I was wondering if I could put in the condition that a script would have to return that within the last 30 min the current has been over 000.500? There is a space at the bottom of the condition section for a script to return "true". But I don't know how to write a script to do that. Can anybody help me write this simple script?
