i have lights and a front door finger print lock which i want to test out creating a scene for.
Basically, my fingerprint opens the front door and lights turn on.
I cant work out the if condition. I can select greater than, equal or less than and then i can input a number. I assumed this would be my fingerprint ID associated with grid connect but when I put that in, equals 018, it drops the leading zero and nothing happens when I open the door. Also, why would i have the option of greater than and less than if this is what it is for.
I cant seem to find any documentation related to this.
Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @fumby. It’s brilliant to have you join us, and thank you very much for your question about creating a scene using Grid Connect.
That’s definitely a curious issue, and I’ll tag in @CSParnell to see if they’ve come across something similar and can offer some guidance. I’d also recommend reaching out to the Grid Connect support team directly. They’ll have the app in front of them and can walk you through how the scene logic is intended to work—especially what the condition values like "greater than" or "equal to" are referring to in this case. They should also be able to confirm how the fingerprint ID is meant to interact with your scene trigger.
Please let me know if you have any questions.

I have an orion grrid connect doorbell with a sensor and i wanted to setup an automation that would trigger the smart downlight above it from dusk till dawn when the doorbell sensed so.eone.
It does not seem to work though.
Hello @fumby
I'm surprised that the behaviour you've setup has not worked. Let me call on our automation specialist @CSParnell to see if anything is missing from the command line and can offer some suggestions on what to add. I also propose calling the Grid Connect support team directly. They will be very familiar with the command line system and should be able to trouble shoot it or at least offer an alternative to make the automation work.
If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.

Hello @ongpin_boy
Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us.
If you've tried to reprogram the automation scene and it still keeps failing my only suspicion is that there is a possible hardware failure. It's also possible that there was a software error when an upgrade was carried out to the system. I suggest doing an elimination test and programming one sensor at a time and putting it through its paces.
Let me call on our experienced member @CSParnell to get his recommendation.
If you need further assistance, please let us know.

Hello @ongpin_boy
It's good to hear the unit corrected itself and its always a good idea to have a back-up unit especially if its a hub.
If you need further assistance, please let us know.
