    @gwp1 : Yes, I've seen (100s!) of those, no problem there! 😉

    I just had this notion that there was some other function in place, where if a device was gone, it would prompt you "This entity is gone, select replacement here", and that this would do replacement of all uses of that entity/device.

    To the other discussion:
    My problems started when I moved ALL devices to a new system, as in all entity addresses changed.
    I have previously been on the same MSR version for long periods of time without any issues, so I very much doubt any "planned obsolesence". 😉

    What a brilliant solution! I think that did the trick, the only modifications needed was to make the new_not_home and last_not_home variables global so I can use them in the original rule. Initial testing looks like this did the trick. Thanks again Patrick!

    You could in your reset action add a delay then have the light turn off after said delay. But if you want the light to turn off specifically when there is exclusively no motion detected, you can add a group in your reset reaction like the screenshot below and it will only turn off the light if there is no motion detected. @toggledbits can confirm if that is the correct approach.

    @catmanv2 said in Entity sanity check:

    Out of curiousity, I assume it's mqtt package files?

    Yes. There's a sample config in the package, and I had to check it. All extras will be getting sample configs like that, and the documentation will in future likely also be moved or duplicated into the package as well.

    @toggledbits You are correct. I had an extra motion sensor and was planning on putting it on the opposite side. While I was testing, with three sensors in the AND group, it dawned on me that all three would have to have triggered and gone false for this to work. This won't happen if you only enter the garage a few feet and never to the other side. I ended up creating my rules exactly how your example was and it's working great. Thanks for the insight and example.

    Well, now that you mention it, if the data passed to Hass will accept an array of entity IDs, I see no reason not to do it. It just passes it through. Have to get the JSON right, though.

    @toggledbits I used something like that to dampen solar panel logic. I am not "legally" allowed to hook up, but I still wanted to play with them. I still have a dumb meter and it's easily possible to end up negative for the month. I used a couple of RIB relays to turn panel groups off if the consumption target for the month was trending under what would be considered believable.

    (I also turn them off by the driveway entrance sensor logic on the days that I know the meter reader will show up. I don't particularly need an observant reader seeing the meter flying around backward)

    @basai My approach to this has been to set a rule to determine a "thing" or "state". I then "turn on/off" other rules by looking at the status of that rule.

    Example:

    Ruleset: is temp below 40º? True for <40º, False for >40º
    Ruleset: do this thing if ruleset "is temp below 40º" is true (or false.)

    @toggledbits in editor mode it is always correct, i.e. showing "less than", but after hitting "exit" it's showing "at least" (and functionally working as it was "at least")

    EDIT: it almost works as the rule starts triggered (as it should), but it also stays triggered (which it should not)

    @toggledbits said in Upcoming HubitatController z-wave polling feature:

    I think that's right

    It is correct. My polling config left the default frequency at 60000ms (1 minute) and I did not include the interval settings on my devices, of which I am polling 3 until I can get around to replacing them. Upon reactor startup, the first device in the list is polled, one minute later the second device, another minute later, the third device. Seven minutes from there, or ten minutes from the initial poll, device 1 is polled again.

    Thank you @toggledbits for adding this feature.

    OK. Move your global expressions into your rule so they are rule-based expressions. They will update each time the Interval triggers.

    Thanks for the suggestions!
    In absence of a notify option, I think setting a variable which has an action for notify.x triggered by it changing, and using using the content of the variable (and then clearing it) might work.
    'other people' i'm trying to get the hang of how things work will be able to understand set variable "send_notification" and type what they want as well 🙂

    Fabulous! For once I wasn't being a complete idiot, and now the entity is True (which is sort of what I'd expect) Thanks so much!
