light on when its dark LUX

[behave49]

OKe, just got my new sensors (Aqara body en light sensor)
I want to make a blocky wich will turn my light on when it becomes dark. It looks how many LUX there are and if the are below 4 it turns on my light.

And it does, but won;t go out anymore becasue at night its below 4 to hahah
How to solf this?

Suggestion:
insert an extra clock-related time-gate which only allows switch-on in the evening.

Something like
IF ((light <4 ) AND ((Time > 17:00) AND (Time < 23:00))) THEN ......

Is there a way to skip this action when i'm not at home? I saw someone made something with his phone.
If phone is not home then dont put light on. But dont know how i could make that.
I see my gsm in Domoticz but thats all

Where do you see your GSM in Domoticz?
[and how did you get that signal?]

Settings, more options, gsm

I do have a variable handled by the presence script that update the number of presence device detected (mostly mobiles phones and tag BLE), if it sets to 0 it means none is at home.

then my lux script evaluate that variable and also external Luxes and time frame (between sunset and sunrise) and switch on or off automatically

Emme, how did you do that?

other problem
I now have 2 scripts. 1 who detects its dark so my lights go on. Amd one wich detects its light enough to turn them off again.
both scripts working but the last one keeps sending the command light off whole day. How can i stop this.
I get why its doing that because if lux is higer then 10 it sent the command. so all of the day the luz is higher then 10 en everytime it gets higher it will sent the off command

@behave49,

you could add a check to the second script: if lux is higher than 10 AND light is on THEN turn the light off.

[doh]

You could use the geolocation feature of the domoticz phone app to turn a switch on/off when you leave the house.
