Hi. I run Hassio 0.103.5 on Rasbperry Pi 3 with Lutron Caseta integration via Caseta Bridge Pro.
I have created some automations where lights are turned on for x minutes when entry door is opened at night. However, I don’t want the light to turn off when the timer times out if someone manually modified the light brightness directly from the wall dimmer (lutron caseta) during the count down. I thought of using some boolean variable that would turned on when someone use the physical switch and use that in my automation that turns the light off.
Does anyone know how to do that … or know of a better way of implementing this?
turn light on upon door opening if light was off. And start 10 min timer
turn light off upon time out
The current automation will turn light off even if in the meantime someone modified the light level using the physical on-wall dimmer.
