Automation - Sonoff iFan03 Cannot trigger

[finity]

@rontaylor

However if, for whatever reason, I manually turn off the fan by 433MHz or in HA; then if the temperature is > 26 the turn on automation does not trigger. I am wondering if it should?

That was the key to the whole thing right there.

It shoudn’t.

The only time a trigger activates an automation is if the trigger becomes false then becomes true.

If the temp is above 26 the automation will not trigger again until the temp goes below 26 and then goes above 26 again.

I am chasing my tail?

It seems so.
