Using motion with virtual switch

#1

1) Give a description of the problem
( Motion turns on lights, off after 5 minutes unless virtual switch on 15 minutes)

2) What is the expected behavior?
(If Motion is active turn on kitchen lights, if no Motion for 5 minutes turn off, but if virtual switch is on for 15 minutes then check if no Motion in last 5 minutes then turn off Kichen lights and virtual switch. )

3) What is happening/not happening?
(Motion works to turn on and off lights after 5 minutes but when Virtual Switch is on the Piston does not follow up with motion sensors to see if motion has been inactive for 5 minutes so lights do not turn off.)

4) Post a Green Snapshot of the pistonimage

Looks to me like your if Switch 2 stays on for 15 minutes is being cancelled because in the prior if statement you ar saying if motion sensors stay inactive AND switch is off … then

If it’s off it can’t evaluate as on and this that never fires.

Maybe try simplifying more to what you wrote in your post?

IF
Any of sensors 1, 2, 3, etc. change to active
THEN
—IF
—Switch1 On
—Then turn lights on, wait 5 minutes, turn lights off
—Else turn lights on, wait 15 minutes, turn lights off
