PIR notification

[remko2000]

I get a (prowl)message when there is movement in my garage (pir). However, I get several at a time. I would like to receive 1 message and that, for example, there is a pause of 5 minutes before another message is sent with motion. How do I set this up in Blocky?

You don't
Start using scripts and you can do anything you like.
I can imagine you don't want notifications for that when you're at home, or when you don't wanne be disturbed, or ...
For instance: I only get notifications from pirs when I'm away or a sleep, and that only when a summy switch 'notifications' is on. When that switch is off I don't get any messages.

Ok that's a good suggestion. II now use a blocky to switch my light via the PIR. Would be nice if I can integrate this in a luascript that also sent a message with movement (and when the sun is down). And that no messages will be sent for a few minutes after that message. I am not a boulder in lua. Is there anyone with such a script or can help me on my way? This is the exciting script:

perfectly doable with Blockly and a user variable

If PIR = On and var Pir_motion = 0
Do

• Set var PIR_motion = 1

• Set var PIR_motion = 0 after 300 seconds

• Send notification...

thx, this does the trick! Works fine.
