Sensor Light Blueprint Site Conditions

lucascoco · March 15, 2024, 7:10am

Hello, the template in HA has one point has the following point
Ambient Light Sensor - Site Conditions

In some cases when your lights turn ON, your ambient light sensor is affected, increasing its LUX value. This can cause the lights to go OFF prematurely. Please select an option that best suits your installation.

How can this be mapped in Node Red?
I have the problem that the lux values are only transmitted very slowly.
Light goes on, motion detector no longer detects movement and switches the light off, but the lux value is still there, movement is detected but nothing happens because the lux value is too high. How can I adjust the flow so that it works?
Thank you

Look at the output of the motion sensor. Does it have an entry timeSinceChangedMs?

You can use a switch node to bypass the lux node if the time since last changed is so many seconds. Meaning the amount of time that the lux sensor takes to recover. This example would allow a bypass if the last time the motion sensor was triggered is less than 5 seconds.

I will try , it is a hue motion sensor

lucascoco · March 16, 2024, 8:22am

There is this information
16.3.2024, 09:13:47node: debug 3binary_sensor.sensorflurog_occupancy : msg.payload : string[3]

“off”

import this flow

Put the motion sensor in the current state node. Deploy. Press inject.

In the debug hit the copy value icon next to payload, then post the results here.

lucascoco · March 17, 2024, 10:41am

you are right
context: object

timeSinceChangedMs: 325012

But under the note event state, when i choose the motion sensor, i cant choose msg.data entity

Mikefila · March 17, 2024, 4:09pm

Use that path in a switch node, not the event state.

Place the switch right after the event state.

lucascoco · March 19, 2024, 12:08pm

But now every time a come to the motion sensor, the light will go on.

Mikefila · March 19, 2024, 3:54pm

Select all the nodes in the flow. Right click and choose export. Click copy to clip board in the dialog box that pops up. Then post the code here. Encase the code in 3 backticks.

```
Paste code here
```

You will need to go to the right side hamburger menu, choose manage palette. Look for and install the traffic node. Then import the flow

Mikefila · March 19, 2024, 4:43pm

I missed one setting, inside the trigger node

Check the box extend delay if new message received.

lucascoco · March 19, 2024, 4:44pm

i will try an give you a feedback tommorow, when there is more light in the house

lucascoco · March 20, 2024, 8:38am

sry, but it dont work, when i pass the sensor and the lux level is okay, i dont go on. That is okay . But when i pass the sensor and traffic light node stand on allow. the light on also is over the lux value. What can be wrong.

Thank you for your work very much.

Mikefila · March 20, 2024, 3:50pm

Okay I made an adjustment. There is a delay node set for 2 min. This should be set so that it is a little longer than the time it takes for the lux sensor to reset.

i think now it woks correct.

thank you for your patience and your knowledge
