Some lights won`t turn off (or on)


#1

1) Give a description of the problem
I am not sure if this is a WC, ST og device specified issue. But I am starting here. I experience that some of my lights at random points need more than one execution, in this example in the likes of “off”. In this example I have my good night routine which is triggered by running an empty routine. This turns everything off (in theory). But there is always one light that doesn`t get turned off, and I have to run the routine again. Yesterday this was a Fibaro Dimmer 2.

I also experience this when I run an opposite piston to turn everything on. There is always one device that needs and extra run. Today this was an outlet (Fibaro Wall Plug).

Any ideas?

4) Post a Green Snapshot of the pistonimage

5) Attach any logs (From ST IDE and by turning logging level to Full)
I don`t have any logs at this time, have started logging now.

I notice you have 16 commands going out at the same moment. Depending on your home network, occasionally one command may get lost in the commotion.

I sometimes break up long commands by adding a 1 second delay between
(ie: turn off 5, wait 1 sec, turn off 5, wait 1 sec, turn off 6)
- OR -
After your current off, you can add a 2 second delay and then another off command to spam the same 16 commands again.

Either should work, but I tend to go with the first choice to keep my network traffic to a minimum

Excellent, I will try this!
Thank you.

I had a similar issue with 6 bulbs turned on by a motion sensor.
I set them to turn on again with 1 second delay and that worked fine.
