I’m trying to create a trigger based on two sensors. Therefore, I let one of the triggers trigger the automation, and added the 2nd sensor as condition:
Question: how often does this trigger execute? Only once if the power state was exactly 2 minutes below 2W? And if the condition was not met, the trigger is not executed again?
Or will the trigger execute every minute as long as it did not pass the condition?
The dryer goes below 2 Watts (or kilowatts ?) for two minutess, it triggers (once because two minutes after it goes below 2 mins only happens once) but then you check that the current is below 100 milliamps - the ‘02:00’ has completely thrown me
Edit : does your current sensor have that resolution ie below 0.1 is 0.099 or lower
Oh ok, that makes sense. Anyways my sensor showed a drop below by 2W while the dryer was still running, for more than 2mins. But meanwhile the Current Ampere stayed above 0.1A, so I thought I could use both of them to indicate the dryer is finished.
Well but my goal is to have an AND connection between those triggers (that’s why I added one as a condition). See it as some kind of double-check or fallback-check if the dryer is really finished.
