Hi everyone,
Thanks for these scripts, they are working pretty well for me.
One problem I'm having is that even when I name the devices PIRnr1SwitchName they still activate during the day, the "n" doesn't seem to be picked up. I can confirm my Demoticz knows the correct time as the time in the logs is fine - has anyone else had this problem?
Thanks
Matt

I actually managed to get this working. It appears that I had to set my latitude and longitude in the settings for it to know where I actually was, and therefore when sunrise and sunset was.

Is it correct that this script doesn't work with the kaku apir-2150.
I have this apir-2150 and trying to get this work with the script but I think I will not work because teh 2150 will send and off signal right?
When setting the off signal in the apir-2150 to one minute and for example in the script for two minutes the light turns off in one minute.
When setting the off signal in the apir-2150 to ten minutes and for example in the script the light turns off in two minutes but will not go on before passing the ten minutes.
Someone having a solution for this or someone who get this work with the apir-2150?

oh... I think setting the prir to 5sec off did the trick.

Hi All,
I can't get these to work either by block or LUA. I have tried the script from here and the Wiki and added them to the /lua folder with the right names etc.
I have called my PIR "PIRConservatory" and my light "Conservatory". The light is a learned switch using a LWRF remote and the PIRConservatory is using a dummy switch - I've tried both motion sensor and On/Off modes for the PIR (Manual Switch).
I don't know what I am doing wrong and it hurts - please help!
Eternally grateful,
Shaun

Is it possible to add a condition for lux-reading in the smart pir script, like If motion, if timeofday....AND lux < 300 then turn on lights

Thanks for this! Great little script and so simple to use.. I was wondering if we could get this to turn the lights off in less than a minute - say 30 secs because even set to a minute it takes longer to turn off again. I assume this is to do with Lua running every minute for the time scripts?
Cheers

I've been using this script for a while a week or so and generally is working great! Only issue I do have is sometimes the dummy device the PIR is controlling - in my case a dummy motion sensor doesn't get turned off. Its now been half hour since the motion got detected and the dummy is still on.. they both show the same time at 22:47, its now 23:20. I wondered if anyone else had this problem or is it just my setup. Cheers!
