Hi All,

Working on a flow to automate the lights. it is for the kitchen.

Now the movementsensor is not reacting on second movements. I have the countdown timer on 30 seconds.  
Using two flows. Like in here; [https://forum.athom.com/discussion/comment/59830/#Comment\_59830](https://forum.athom.com/discussion/comment/59830/#Comment_59830)

Thanks for helping.

Regards,

Dave

Try this… [Kitchen light goes of](https://community.homey.app/t/kitchen-light-goes-of/255/15?u=smarthome)

No countdown timer needed 🙂

Thanks for your reply! it works.

Is it also possible that the lights turns off after 15 seconds instead of 30 ?

Regards,

Dave

This is possible by decreasing the “Motion Alarm Cancellation” - however, you need to find a good balance between “no motion detected” and how long someone is likely to still be in a room and “standing / sitting still” - otherwise the light will turn off whilst the room is still occupied! Trial and error should get a good result 🙂
