Having problems getting this to work using the long press block if I touch the button for any length of time only get Q1.

What I'm trying to achieve - I have the air switch attached at T5 lighting controller and in the room have a mains socket controlled via a loxone relay in app, I want to be able to push and hold the centre button (lights) for say 2-3 seconds and the socket switches on and then again 2-3sec off without the lights also coming on/changing.

any ideas how to do this?

Do you have any other functions linked to the 4 corner touch points?

If not, then simplest solution is to take the T5 switch into a Long Click block Tr input and set the TI time parameter so that a short click (<1xTI) sends the output Q1 into the standard T5 input of the lighting controller. The long press (>3xTI) output Q4 can then be taken to a switch block to toggle the mains socket relay on/off.

Hi, yes have blinds and music using the corners they are connected as T5.

Thanks I didn't know you could run t5 thro a long click I was using the centre button only and it was also triggering the lights will give your setup above ago.

Tried your suggestion. Problem is the 4 corners trigger lights If I move blind the lights come on same as switch radio lights come on.

Ah, I thought that might happen, hence my question as to whether you also use the corner buttons.

It might work as expected if you separate out the switch middle button (I3) and use this as your input into the long click block, instead of the T5. To do this, select the switch in the periphery and you will see options to allow individual buttons to be shown, just tick button 3 and then use it as any other input.
