⏹ Manual Control Status Tracker

I activate the appropriate scene based on a time-of-day variable:

I had previously been using some manual logic from this post to detect these manual events. This worked well as far as my testing went. However I was happy to change to your blueprint version of the same outcome as it greatly reduced the manual triggers and actions I had to add to my main lighting control automations.
