Thought Iād post my final scripts here. Not the prettiest, but they work and accomplish everything in all scenarios that I could think of.
Idea: Control multiple bathroom fans, to all turn on/off at set times. Monitor the switch presses for on/off and depending when in ventilation or outside of ventilation timing act accordingly.
-
If Ventilation OFF
ā Turns fan on, with 30 minute delay, then turns off. When pushed while already on restarts so delay another 30 minutes before turning off
-
If Ventilation ON
ā switch OFF ā delay 10 seconds turn back on
ā switch ON ā checks against a input.boolean to see if fan is in last 25 minutes of ventilation. If not, button push is ignored. If it is, the individual fan status is set to ON and delay of 30 minutes before turning off set. Additional presses of on restart delay
When ventilation turning off, it checks each individual fan to see if the status is ON. If they are on it doesnāt turn them off. If fan status is OFF it turns them off at end of ventilation.

This is all done using Leviton DS15Z on/off switches. They do not have multiple button press actions but by using conditions and input.booleans set I was able to make them act like it did. It rethinking the logic and conditions it would be possible using this to actually turn these switches into multiple action based on amount of times the switch is hit on to trigger difference scenarios. ie if you walked into the room, you could have different items turned on depending on how many button presses. Just would take more effort then having the state change available like certain other switches with that capability have built in!
