As a new member of this fantastic community, I’m eager to share my journey and seek some guidance. I’ve recently started exploring the world of smart home automation, and I’m excited to create a seamless ‘coming home’ experience for my family. Here’s what I’ve envisioned so far:I want my hallway and kitchen lights to automatically turn on when we arrive home at night. The idea is to have the lights greet us as we walk in, ensuring we never fumble with keys in the dark. However, I also want the hallway light to turn off once we’re settled in, to save energy and avoid any unnecessary glow.To achieve this, I’ve set up a scenario using a garage sensor. The logic is straightforward: when it’s nighttime and the garage sensor is triggered (indicating someone has arrived home), the hallway and kitchen lights should turn on. Conversely, when the sensor is untripped (meaning the garage door is closed), the hallway light should turn off. Here’s where I’ve run into a bit of a snag. When I arm the garage sensor (which I do manually before leaving the house), and then open the garage door, the lights turn on even though I’m not actually coming home. This happens because arming the sensor and opening the garage door triggers the same logic. My initial thought was to delay the arming of the garage sensor by a few minutes. That way, if I decide to talk to a neighbor or take a quick walk after arming the system, the lights won’t accidentally turn on. However, I’m not sure how to implement this delay without affecting the overall security setup. I don’t want to delay the arming of the cameras themselves, as that could compromise security.I’ve tried searching through the forums and documentation, but I haven’t found a clear solution yet. I’m hoping someone here might have encountered a similar issue or have a clever workaround. Any advice or suggestions would be incredibly appreciated!In the meantime, I’m continuing to tinker with the settings and will keep the community updated on any progress I make. It’s amazing to be part of such a supportive and knowledgeable community—thank you all in advance for your help!
