Just getting my feet wet with mControl.... I need some help with suggestions of how to set up my mControl to do the following. I am wanting my lights to come on 25% as wake up alarm... 2 minutes later go to 50% then... 2 minutes later 75%.... I know that I can accomplish this with 3 separate commands... but is there a way to do this in one macro? Hope this makes sense. Thanks,
Rich

I have a similar macro set up. Just under the macro set a delay after the first action. E.G.

Trigger:
At 9AM:

Action:
Set light value to 25%
Delay 2 Minutes
Set light value to 50%
Delay 2 Minutes
Set light value to 75%

Etc.

Another way would be to use "Recurring Timer" with these parameters:
Time=6:30 AM (or whatever time you want)
Recur Interval=2 min
Occurence (repeat)= 4 times

The action would be
Automation: YourLigth, BRIGHTEN

(Remember to set dim/brighten by to 25% in the device options; 25% * 4 times = 100%).
