Scenes and Rules?
Completed
Hi,
I want to create a rule that only runs in certain scenes - how do I do that?
Thanks
Stew

Make it like this:
>> Scene Holiday >> Turns on >> Virtual Swith Holiday
Then a rule:
When Virtual switch Holiday = On
Set bla bla

You can make a virtual switch and use it in de scene and rule.

HeroS, thanks for that. I've looked at the virtual switch and have managed to link that into a rule well enough but the switch isn't in any way connected to the running of a specific scene.
Have I misunderstood what a scene should be used for?
What I want to do is run a specific scene e.g. On Vacation and have that execute a bunch of rules that have different schedulers to when I run the scene At Home, or At Work.
What I expected was that in rule builder I could define a rule that was something like "If Scene = 'On Vacation'....." or even "When (now between x and y) and (scene = 'On Vacation')...." could you explain how to achieve something similar?
