Hi I have a stair with some lights, 2 motion sensors and a presense sensor. I have set up this Advanced Flow, but it’s so slow that it it takes like 5-7 seconds before lights turns on. [image] The most simple flow I have tried in another room is with a contact sensor and a light. When the cont…

[image] TThrane: 2 motion sensors and a presense sensor Do all of these actually trigger zone activity (is the respective setting enabled in their device tiles)? Also (unrelated): most dimmable lights do not require you to switch them on if you set a dim value greater than 0. That will norma…

Timeline Notification? I use a similar presense sensor in another room, where I use HomeApp for automation - there lights are on immediately.

I tried just to use DIM, but the lights aren’t turned on that way - therefor the extra step :frowning: All 3 units are included in Zone Activity

Just trying to help. If it’s working as expected then no investigation is needed indeed. If it’s not working as expected you might want to find out what’s causing the issue.

And I really greatfull for all help, thanks! It’s working elsewhere when setup in HomeApp, but similar setup in Homey is slow. And I need these more advanced features Homey offers, so I can’t move it to HomeApp :frowning:

The only way to find out out is by testing. So you start with the most simple flow: WHEN motion detected THEN switch on the light. when that works ok and fast enough, you start adding a few more more cards and test again. Until the flow is complete and working fine, or until the flow is slow and y…

This takes 2-3 seconds from I see motion detected until lights turns on - good or bad? I find it slow :frowning: Was there a way to see some logs? [image]

I think it should be faster, depending upon how do you see motion detected? Logging you have to make yourself with the app Log or with writing messages to the time line, directly after the WHEN card.

Maybe the motion sensor’s current time out or reporting interval settings in Homey are causing a delay. Not sure which options you can set in Homey, but you might want to review (and if necessary adjuist) them. Also: you might want to add a timeline card to both card with a test message as also sug…

Are you using LIFX via Cloud? In this topic i read others complaining that cloud is “stupidly slow”. If so maybe using that app might solve the issue.
