Hi all,

I've got a OP2 with UPB interface running. Having an issue with a 
program I'm trying to do.

I'm trying to turn an entry light on for 12 minutes when any of 3 
different doors open (zones.)

1 is wired, and 2 are wireless. all zones work great, and I see all 
status when open/closed.

This might be more of a programming question.

Currently I have a program set when any of the 3 zones go Not Ready I 
turn the EntryLight on for 12 minutes. With little activity this 
works great, but when you go through the doors a bunch the system 
hiccups and will not either turn off or turn on the light.

I'm thinking maybe I need to program this a different way. Maybe any 
zone turns the light ON and then sets a flag timer, and can reset the 
flag timer?

I'm more of a JDS Stargate programmer, and though i've converted all 
over to hai OP2, I am just not as skilled in using the HAI language 
for programming.

any advice?

Thanks,
John.

John,

I think you are on the right track with a flag.  I would establish a "door
flag", and when any of the three doors go NOT READY, Turn door flag ON for
12 minutes.  That way, any door that opens will reset the flag back to 12
min.

Then, call for the entrylight to turn on when the door flag turns ON, and
then have the light go off when the door flag turns OFF.

I have a very similar program with the units being different, and I think
this should get over your high activity problems.
