1) Give a description of the problem
Can’t figure out how to time=
2) What is the expected behaviour?
If Current_Time = 10:00PM then Change Thermostat to 63 degrees.
3) What is happening/not happening?
Best I can see is $time is 10:00 P.M.
TIME has no = (or IS)
But that gives me warning piston cannot trigger by itself.
4) Post a Green Snapshot of the piston
(UPLOAD YOUR IMAGE HERE)
This trigger:
is solid and reliable. (Notice the lightning bolt in the left margin)
Quick Steps to recreate:
condition
OK went back in deleted and recreated. For some reason I didn’t get message "this piston will not run on it’s own’ (paraphrasing). So now I can’t figure out why it doesn’t change thermostats. Did a z-wave repair. It works lowering and raising heat point on app. Sent SMS in THEN and received text. Any reason why it doesn’t change the device?

It just doesn’t want to do all 3 thermostats together. I’ll just have to do all separate 3 different tries.
Thermostats are notoriously slow to respond. When I need to send multiple commands to a thermostat, I usually add a WAIT in between commands. (depending on the device, the handler, and a few other factors, it may be anywhere between 5s and 30s)
