put a seperate debug on each node and name the debug nodes...makes it easier to see which node is sending what

see how in first `debug` the payload is aqn object? If you cliick the crows in the debug output, it will expand the oupput and show what is in payload.

i am a step futher now, when i remove the trigger 1 min. then the motion works and activate the lamp and without motion the lamp goes off. so the trigger part goes wrong.

Will name the debug nodes

Expand the object output as we cannot see it. you can copy the output and paste it between 3 tickmarks, like:

```

But when it sees motion when the light is off, then the led strips stays off

The trigger node receives a message, does nothing for 1 minute and then sends OFF.  
Reset is done when ON is received.

Nothing will happen.

Before i post a flow:

You want the light to go on when there is motion detected and stay on for 1 minute correct ?  
The motion sensor only ouputs "true" when there is movement correct ? (there is no false)

My main quastion is then still unanswerd.

But is this idear possible

When i push the T0 switch from main light, and it is between 6-7am then only the led strip goes on, and after and bedore 6-7am also the main light goes on. but when there is no movement then all lights go off.

What is your "main" question ?

Yes that is simple, go to the hamburger menu (right top) -\> manage palette -\> install tab, search "node-red-contrib-time-range-switch", install. Now you can route messages based on the time.
