How to arange these conditions

[Rotech]

Hey guys, aim trying to make an event that can do the following. When window 1 or window 2, is open and sensor1 and sensor 2 has been off for 15 min. trigger what ever, is this correct? Aim trying to "OR" the windows togther but I cant seem to "OR" them

In Group 1 put

When window 1 is open
AND when sensor 1 has been off for 15 minutes
AND when sensor 2 has been off for 15 minutes

Then, in Group 2 put

When window 2 is open
AND when sensor 1 has been off for 15 minutes
AND when sensor 2 has been off for 15 minutes

Also, you don't need to set this as a recurring trigger that triggers every minute. Simply set it up as a conditional trigger with the conditions listed above.

Thanks BrettS, but I would like it to repeat a message if the windows are not closed. Will the conditional event repeat the message?

Actually, if you want the event do do something every minute as long as the conditions are true, it needs to be:

When window 1 is open
AND when sensor 1 has been off for AT LEAST 15 minutes
AND when sensor 2 has been off for AT LEAST 15 minutes

Then, in Group 2 put

When window 2 is open
AND when sensor 1 has been off for AT LEAST 15 minutes
AND when sensor 2 has been off for AT LEAST 15 minutes

Otherwise, the event will not fire unless sensor 1 and sensor 2 go off at the exact same time. If one has been off 14 minutes, and the other has been off 15 minutes, it will not fire. Then the next minute it still won't fire because one will have been off 15 minutes but the other one will have been off 16 minutes.

Technically, the event will fire every minute with the above conditions, but I would still put the repeating condition in just to make it more clear. Also, if you decide you want the interval to be 2 minutes, you will have to put that condition in because the default is every 1 minute.
