Model: Tapo T100   Tapo L530E  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: Latest

I tried to set the retrigger of T100 to 32 sec, and automation of "No motion detected" to 30 sec  to switch off the L530E bulb.

 

it always stay at a time frame of 1min 30sec before switching itself off , I measured the time from beginning upon triggering the T100 sensor to detect my motion , till the bulb switch itself off, it took 1min 30sec.

 

I had tried a slightly longer retrigger time frame of 60sec , but let the automation rule of "no motion detected" remain at 30sec to switch off the L530E, the result is the same 1min 30sec.

 

is there a bug in the app automation feature?

How are you determining that the sensor has been triggered? Is it when you physically pass by it, or when you receive a detection notification in the app?

 

You could run a simple test to verify the automation’s behavior: create a new rule where the sensor triggers the light to turn on, then watch whether the light turns off automatically after 30 seconds (the current rule).

Hi Wayne,

 

I tried walking past a sensor with a stop watch at hand, kept an eye on the yellow led flashes yellow once it sensed me. The lights then switch itself ON, there is a slight gap between yellow led flashes to the light switching ON, but this process takes less than a second so it's negligible. The 1min and 30sec +/- timing is what I get from yellow led flashes till the light bulb turns off.

 

the ON and OFF automations are done via 2 seperate entries for sensors. So there are a bunch of ON and OFF automation created for each light around the house.

 

This problem actually exist for all the T100 sensors+ P110 power plugs around the house too. There are many lights that are the generic light which have power connected to the P110 for ON and OFF state switching.

 

so my guess is either the automation app script or the T100 setting script might have bug.

 

John
