I want to be able to close my garage door after a certain time at night if the sensor is in the tripped/open position. I have the Evolove LFM-20 and an ecolink garage door tilt sensor. I created a new scene called Garage close, added the LFM-20 set to the ON position and the garage door sensor to the devices. For triggers i just picked a random time of day to test the scene. Under conditions I have the garage sensor = level 100 which is for the open position. This is not working for me...what am I missing?e

I believe your sensor will report 255 as the value when it's opened. To be safe though, you could say >= 1 in the condition.

That got it working. I used the >=. Thanks for helping out the newbie.
