Maybe the smart macro plugin will address
this does anyone know?

Well the smartmacro will not address this
(not yet anyways). I've seen this done in
other programs so I know it is posible.
Maybe it will be another (free?) plugin.

What about using an unused unit code on the
monitored house code, or a flag to permit
the execution of a timer within a macro. I
am using that currently to "allow" accent
lighting to turn on in the evening. If I
turn the monitored unit code off, the accent
lights will not turn on.

Dave -
That is a good idea. Use a flag (or several
flags) to determine the schedule for that
day / week / month, and then base the
conditions on the state of the flags.

I've tried using flags and conditions but
I'm limited to number of conditions one can
put int a smart macro.Even if I could get
all the info into a smart macro I still have
to set a flag manualy every two weeks as my
shifts rotate every two weeks.
