twmoonly Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 What is the best way to program if alarm is going off to toggle the outside lights for the duration of the alarm going off? Is there a loop option for the toggle or do I need to program the toggle on/off for a set amount of time!

Cyknight Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Create a timer for one second. When alarm state is alarm start timer When timer expires Toggle light (ing scene) When alarm state is restored stop timer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twmoonly Posted November 26, 2017 Author Share Posted November 26, 2017 How do you creat the light scene to toggle on/off?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyknight Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Under the advanced lighting scene agent. note that you'd only do this if you use more than one light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prabeau Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Does this apply only to the latest light controls as in FLASH for Advanced lighting seen. Cant get this to work, seems to me there should be a command to restart timer somewhere. Got this to work by toggle on timer start and a restart at timer expires Dont know if this is an appropriate way to go about it. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyknight Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 You would need to change the timer to repeating... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prabeau Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 oh crap Forgot about that little box Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twmoonly Posted November 28, 2017 Author Share Posted November 28, 2017 I have tried the coding reference above but cant get it to work. I got it to work by creating the flash option in advanced lighting and trigger that scene on the alarm going off. Then made a scene that turns the lights off when the alarm is deactivated.
