Trigger is not fired

Hello, I don’t understand why the lamps don’t turn off when the lux value is over 5. Although the lux value changes from 0 to 5 in the morning.

How can the the lux value be below 0 and above 5 at the same time?

That is what your trigger is looking for.

Try just above: 5 This will trigger when the lux value changes from below 5 to above 5.

Hi thorstenniemann.tn

,
Also if it changes to 5, that is not above 5.
It would need to change to whatever is greater than 5 in your lux scale there or set it to greater than 4.9 kind of thing.
