Keypad Button Click - stop bound action

[brucecampbell]

I have a 6 button keypad-dimmer with 'Goodnight' light scene bound to the bottom button.

During parties the young kids like to play with the buttons, turning off all the lights.

Is there a way to prevent a bound action from happening?

or is my only alternative to remove the binding and run the scene from programming on button click?
I prefer the binding due to it automatically setting the LED colour from the scene...

Cheers.

Pretty sure you’re going to need to remove the binding and go to programming. create a variable called “party” and if it’s active, dont allow the goodnight scene to happen

look at this driver - https://drivercentral.io/platforms/control4-drivers/utility/keypad-enhancer/

you may be able to use it to trigger modes that disable buttons at certain times

I was also going to suggest the Domosapiens driver.  I think it allows for this (but may be wrong). They have some really cool drivers and this is one of two which are still on my list to try out.

Indeed, our Keypad Enhancer driver allows you to disable a keypad to prevent guests from playing with it during a party.  There is even a secret button sequence you may use yourself to re-enable locally it if needed.

I hope this helps.

Thanks, I may have to take a closer look.

Button sequence to re-enable locally sounds useful.
I currently have variables linked to experience buttons which I control from the App for anything I need interaction with:
