Nesting "IF's in an "IF"

#1

I’m trying to nest two different conditions in another on line 45

IF motion is inactive
THEN
IF LIGHT (dimmer 3) was turned on by motion, turn off in 1 minutes
IF LAMP (dimmer 9) was turned on by motion, turn off after 2 minutes

I have tried all manner of changing the if’s and with’s to async, and while behavior sometimes changes, I can never get the second IF to turn off after 2 minutes.

what about changing line 46 to “changes to inactive”… I think you need something to actually trigger/happen in order to get that to run.

This was a simple working piston (yesterday) with just a single Dimmer3 and motion was a trigger-“changes to inactive”.
When I added the two IF’s to it, only the first IF ran. The second was completely ignored.
Changing to a condition caused them both to fire, but the timer on the second “IF” won’t start until the first IF is complete.

Would it not be easier to turn those around, in two separate statements:

  1. If {lampoonmotion} is true
    AND motionsensor 13 is inactive
    Then
    With dimmer 9
    Wait one minute
    turn off
    Etc

  2. If {lightonmotion} is true
    AND motionsensor 13 is inactive
    Then
    With dimmer 3
    Wait two minutes
    Turn off
    Etc
