1) Give a description of the problem
My piston is looping, and I don’t know why.
2) What is the expected behavior?
The switch opens and the bulb brightness goes up to 100% for 5 seconds and then goes back down to 40%, or the switch was open more than a second and is now closed, and the bulb brightness goes up to 100% for 5 seconds, then goes back down to 40.
3) What is happening/not happening?
After the switch is closed and remains closed, the bulb brightness will go up to 100% for 5 seconds, come down briefly for a second, then go back up to 100%.
What I am trying to do is setup a piston so that when someone opens my back door, the light increases in brightness, but I don’t want the timer to start until the door has closed. I realize I probably did not code this in the most efficient manner, and welcome suggestions on how to make it more efficient.
4) Post a Green Snapshot of the piston
5) Attach any logs (From ST IDE and by turning logging level to Full)
