So lately I have been getting a lot of triggers from my Vibration Sensor. Single triggers possibly caused by gusts of wind? Large truck? Or so…
I plan to setup a Piston in order to take care or it. Everythjng is set up however I cannot figure out how to set it to trigger if for example the state changes 2 times of 3 times.
I see that i can use IF “Active” for 1 minute. However the way the vibration sensor works is more like bursts.
I would use a variable. Do a search here.
I am assuming but that you mean:
On state change X=X+1
If X = 2 then TRIGGER.
If after 5 minutes X is SAME then X=0.
I think its a bit of an overkill. Am i assuming wrong? Isn’t there perhaps an easier way of doing it?
Yeah, something like that.
I don’t worry about ease of setup… What’s most reliable for the use case.
It didn’t work. Instead it waited until it hit 3 vibrations in a row and then it triggered. Regardless there was hours in between.
So I opted for this instead:
However I am unsure my if my logic is correct. Will it clear every 5 minutes? Or will it run every time and every time it will wait 5 minutes and clesr the variable, causing it to never trigger? Please advice. Is this the proper way to add a wait time?
I didn’t work. Whatam I doing wrong? Is that not the way to clear tge variable after 5 minutes?
But what about restting it? I want to reset the variable IF there is no 3 consecutive motions in 5 minutes.
How do i setup the does NOT change?
Also lost me abit with black circles and dots lol
Should it be in an AND or perhaps in a THEN IF? The not changes part.
