The automation triggers when binary_sensor.jmd4004141_state turns on
You immediately check to see if binary_sensor.jmd4004141_state has been on for 5 seconds
The condition can never be true, because the automation triggers the moment the sensor turns on, so by the time the condition is checked, not enough time can have passed.
Then submit an edit to correct them, or raise an issue so that others can look into it. Obviously we prefer the first
If you’ve got details, please raise an issue. The hardware you’re running on will matter. It’s not something I’ve seen, but I’ve only got a handful that trigger at fixed times.
Will do when I come across. I have used some examples previously from the docs, that
has not worked well. Mostly regarding time triggers/conditions. I’ve got a lot of time checks in conditions, not so many time triggers. It’s especially when using before and after checks, which seems somewhat unreliable.
I just upgraded to the latest PI 3 B+ last night, so ill see if that makes a difference.
