Use of memory flags

[J V]

Yes, I misinterpreted your previous post. I was doing the same, but got the impression there was some other way of distinguishing.

Stupid idea: would it be possible to use the same memory flag as actuator and as sensor (e.g. for lights)? Or better not?

The memory flag works as Input, where you can store a value. From then on you link the memory flag to other pages, and then they work as an output.

So I did not get you, what you would like to do..

Ok... for one light, how many memory flags do you have?

I currently use 2 : one that shows the current status (taken from the sensor), and one that is used to set the current status (sends its value to the actuator).

But I wonder if it has to be like this: perhaps one memory flag is enough... read it to get the status, set it to change the actuator. Would that work?

[Automation]

It depends, sometime I habe only once set to the actuatur, sometimes a dozend. For example, the scene " Good night". I set this with a push button on a page with a scene. Then i have linked the memory flag to more then a dozend actuators, in order to switch all lights of. That mean since I have per page one room, I also have a few links...

Ok, but the minimum you would have is 2: one for the status and one for the actuator.

[Automation]

Yep right.

Thanks!
The config already looks much better and more structured, I might be able to finish it soon (I kept starting, restarting, putting it aside, starting again, ...)!
