Dimming a lamp using a fixed time schedule and an indoor motion detector

Procedure

Creating the controls, the device and the time schedule

1. Create an indoor motion detector (DET1).
2. Create a dimmable lamp (LAMP1).
3. Create a virtual device (VIRT1).
4. Create a daily time schedule (TIME1) from sunrise until sunset.

Creating the routine

Create a routine Motion detection with indoor detector(s) (ROUT1).

• Configure the following behaviour:
  • master detector that initiates the routine: indoor motion detector (DET1)
  • device that is switched on when the routine is started: VIRT1: Value = true
• Set the parameter switch-off delay

Creating the conditions

1. Create a condition (COND1) for deactivating the lamp when no movement is detected within the switch-off delay set in the detector's parameters. Use the following logic:
   • IF ROUT1: State = motion detected + switch-off delay
   • THEN LAMP1: Level = off
   • ELSE leave empty
2. Create a condition (COND2) to set the lamp luminosity to 100% from sunset until sunrise. Use the following logic:
   • IF (TIME1: On/off = false) and (ROUT1: State = motion detected + switch-off delay)
   • THEN LAMP1: Level = on
   • ELSE leave empty
3. Create a condition (COND3) to set the lamp luminosity to  30% from sunrise until sunset. Use the following logic:
   • IF (TIME1: On/off = true) and (ROUT1: State = motion detected + switch-off delay)
   • THEN LAMP1: Level = 30%
   • ELSE leave empty
