Hi,
I am trying to do something fairly trivial but seems I cannot get this to work the way I want it. I have a sunset event in which this turns all of my house lights on. I need to create a virtual device to act as an occupancy device that is set manually so that if this virtual device is on when the sunset event runs it will also run another event to turn some other lights on.
I've created the Virtual device, renamed it and used the default settings on it. I then created an event to trigger manually and if the virtual device is set to on then run the event to turn on the other lights. If I run this event manually when the virtual device is off it still runs the other event to turn the other lights on which I don't want. So essentially if the virtual device is on then run the other events and if it is off don't run the other event.
Not sure what I am doing wrong here but when I create the virtual device I get 2 devices, one virtual and one Control device and there doesn't seem to be any documentation this other control device that gets created.
Its probably something simple but not sure what the deal is here.
