If then problem
Need Answer
Hi,
Here is a simplified rule I'm trying to use. Why "himmennin" goes always to 50% value?
For example when I shortly press switch -> after 4 sec the switch status is neutral and ELSE branch should be processed. But why it is always using this True branch and goes to 50%?
I thought it would work like this, but it's not:
1. Switch OFF pressed
2. 4 second wait
3. If switch is still pressed OFF
-> "himmennin" 50%
Else -> "himmennin" 20%

Real-time notifications may not work
in WHEN use ANY, now the rule start only in OFF state, so it never gets to else part
in WHEN use ANY, now the rule start only in OFF state, so it never gets to else part
That's what I'm trying to do, rule start only when OFF side of switch is pressed. Then after delay dimming more if OFF side of switch is still pressed.

Not sure why, but the general rule is to use an "any" in the when block then have a sub IF to check the state. This seems to clear-up many issues; however, I think you biggest issue is that you need a "REFRESH ALL" before checking the state again. Otherwise, the values within the rule remain static and do not reflect what is happening outside the rule.
