I recently discovered Reactor myself – it’s very nice and I.bet it could work.
I actually set up the functionality you’re describing by using another plugin called “Countdown Timer.” First I used the app to create a timer device to countdown 1800 seconds (30 minutes). Then I created three Vera scenes:
Opening the garage door triggers Unmute and Start of the timer device.
Closing the garage door triggers a Mute and Cancel of the timer device.
Timer reaching zero triggers Mute and Cancel of the timer device and also sends a notification.
As I just said in another post - if you stay with Vera long you will want to look at the PLEG plug-in. You can build just about anything. Generally figuring out exactly when you want something to happen is the hard part…
Thanks, I got all this figured out with Reactor. After a little bit of instruction from rigpapa it was fairly intuitive. He said he was going to add his “initial instruction” to me to the wiki.
Don’t think this is possible in Ezlo Scenes / “Meshbot” rules currently ?
Multi System Reactor now supports Ezlo hubs, I’d recommend you look at that. You will need another machine to run it on however like a Pi or NAS or something.
