Help: Set Piston State Not Working the Way I Would Like


#1

1) Give a description of the problem
At 8am (7:59:59) to be exact, my mode change piston ran as expected and the location mode to “Home - Day”. However, both the piston state and subsequent notification output was the previous mode (coming from “Home - Dawn”:

Piston state: Home - Dawn was initiated on Tue, Nov 7 2017 @ 7:59:59 AM EST

2) What is the expected behavior?
When piston fires and modes are changed, I’d like for the piston state to be the mode the piston changes to.

3) What is happening/not happening?
See above

4) Post a Green Snapshot of the pistonimage

@c1arkbar - Hey Dustin. Since I borrowed/copied this from you, any ideas about why my Piston state doesn’t change to the new mode?


#3

During the piston run $locationMode is the old mode, maybe doing another call to the piston after the run to set the new mode. I haven’t tried it.

Mine does this as well and was never fixed even on my end. My dashboard isn’t used like others so it’s just stayed this way.
