Simple garage automations


#1

Ok I’m about to give up on webcore. I’ve tried and tried and I can’t get the simplest of automations to work.
ALL I want is when I go into the garage, one of two or both motion sensors sees me, turns on the garage lights, and stays on while I’m in there, and turns off 5 minutes after both register me as gone. Here’s what I’ve written based off examples I’ve seen here, and this triggered nothing. Nothing at all.

Your second IF can never be true.

A trigger is a split moment in time, so for all practical purposes, two triggers cannot be true in the same millisecond.

The usual way we program this is something like:

IF Any of DeviceA or DeviceB's motion changes to active
    Then Turn on Light
END IF

IF All of DeviceA and DeviceB's motion STAYS inactive for 5 minutes
    Then Turn off Light
END IF

Note, webCoRE is smart enough to not send a TurnOn command to a device that is already on.

Ah ok…I’ll keep working with it, thank you!
