I will try from the yaml file

So editing from the yaml file worked, the UI limited me to go as low as 1. I did a small work around to add time base which was to have another automation disable it during certain times and enable it after certain times. Your Sensor Light Blueprint has the ability to add time. Is this possible with this one?

You can just type 0 and click save but normally you would have some lights but I going to look at it again to have no lights if you need to. I added that on a list to do.

Use the automation link to disable other blueprints. It is all designed to work this way. Click Here on the how to.

Hi @Blacky

I would like to use your Blueprint so that when the alarm goes off, the lights turn red and flash. Do you have any ideas how I can do this? Thanks

145

@cediqqu

You would just set up your trigger for you alarm, the flashing lights will probably be a script to run. Consider using the snapshot feature so when you reset your alarm all your lights go back to how it was before and you can use the automation link if you have my blueprints to control your lights so they will be disabled when the alarm goes OFF.

I’ll try it! Thank you very much!!

Unless my understanding of Intermission Mode is wrong, I think that there might be an issue in version 2.2. When intermission mode is triggered, Light 2 turns on as expected, but Light 1 which was turned on by the automation’s Trigger On state is turned off, as if the automation was exiting. When intermission mode ends, Light 2 is turned off as expected, but Light 1 is turned back on as if the automation was restarted. Is this normal behaviour of the intermission mode?

Yep it is. When we go to intermission mode if you would like Light 1 (light.ht_tv_backlight) ON then you will need to add it again into intermission mode lights. When in intermission mode and you would like different brightness for your lights then you will need to create a scene. If you create a scene and you turning ON an extra light 2 (light.ht_torchiere_light) to movie mode lights then need to make another scene with light 2 OFF and add it into Intermission - Scenes & Scripts To Turn OFF.

This is your code.

When the automation switches to Intermission mode, is the Movie Lights Scenes & Scripts To Turn OFF executed? I have a scene to close a blind when the automation starts and configured in the Movie Lights section. I also have a script to reset it to its calculated position for the time of the day when the automation exists. However, when entering Intermission mode, the script to reset the blind is executed and blind opens. Is that normal behaviour?

@paf1

Can you try this for me.

Keep this.

Can you move this script to End Turn ON - Lights - Switches - Scenes - Scripts

Let us know if this works for you.
