Hi everyone, I’m currently migrating my home automation setup from openHAB 1 to openHAB 3, and I’m exploring the new concepts like things, channels, and semantic models. My setup includes an Eltako FTS14 bus system with PIR motion sensors and light actuators. I’ve managed to get everything working smoothly, but I’m looking to enhance my automation further.
Specifically, I want to decouple the PIR motion sensors from the lights during nighttime. In my previous setup with openHAB 1, I used a custom MQTT bridge to achieve this by blocking the light actuator’s value at night. Now, I’m curious if there’s a more efficient way to do this in openHAB 3 without resorting to my old Python script.
I came across the storeValue parameter in the EnOcean binding’s dimmer channel, but I’m not sure how to configure it through the UI. I’m wondering if there’s a built-in feature or a smarter automation rule that can handle this scheduling for me. Any insights or alternative solutions would be greatly appreciated!
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and experiences. Cheers, Max
