Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 1.1.9 Build 240524

Hi everyone, I'm trying to set up a specific automation for my driveway using the Tapo app and could use some advice on the best way to stack these rules.

​Hardware:

​Bulbs: Tapo L530E (Smart Wi-Fi Light Bulb, Multicolour)

​Camera: Tapo C402 (Smart Wire-Free Security Camera)

​Desired Logic:

​Sunset: Bulbs turn ON at 50% brightness.

​Motion Trigger: When C402 detects motion, L530E increases to 100% brightness.

​Duration: Keep at 100% for 15 minutes.

​Revert: After 15 minutes, return to 50% brightness (unless it's Sunrise).

​Sunrise: Bulbs turn OFF.

​The Challenge: > I want this to loop every time motion is detected throughout the night. How should this be setup?

Set the automation's effective time from sunset to sunrise:

  • When camera detects movements,
  • Then:

1. Turn on light bulb and set to 100% brightness (Turn on and custom lighting)

2. Delay 15 minutes

3. Turn light bulb and set to 50% brightness

 

As for the on and off operations at sunrise and sunset, you can do it through the bulb's schedule feature.
