[DEPRECATED Thread: visit community.webcore.co for assistance] webCoRE - Piston Design Help (ask your fellow members for assistance)

I have just created the absolute most wonderful Piston for “Simple Lighting” I could ever hope for in SmartThings! I have a slew of GE 12724s and they are darn dependable but have a flaw that plagued me for a long time now. Couldn’t get the light to stay off if I turned it off physically. Couldn’t get the setting to stick if automation was enabled. With this Piston and the DTH I listed earlier, all of my problems have been solved.

  1. Motion On-Light On (Easy)
  2. Motion Off Light Off (Easy)
  3. Light On with Manual Changes that Stick (Hard Before)
  4. Light Off and Motion Doesn’t Turn it Back On! (Hard Before)
  5. Motion Sensor Reset Wait Period to Turn Light Back On after Turned Off Physically (Hard Before)
  6. Different Settings for Different Times and Modes (Easy)
  7. Simple Automation Bypass for All Scenarios (Easy)

Now my lights work just like my dumb motion sensor! :joy:

Remember, in order to get the dimmer physical to work, you might need this DTH.
