Scene alert resets Garage Door input state

  • Installed a Shelly 1 to control (open/close) garage door with reed switch to flag detached switch input state when garage door is fully open

    All was working ok with control via Shelly App

    - Detached switch showed red on app when garage door was fully open

    I then created a Scene to alert when garage door is fully open - which works with Alarm triggering to flag ‘Garage Door is Open’

    My issue

    - when Scene (input state is off) is triggered I get correct Alarm message

    - but input state on detached switch is only momentarily red it then resets back to green when scene is triggered

    - so I don’t know if garage door is still open as input state in detached switch goes back to green when scene is triggered even though garage door is still fully open

    So details

    - button type is Detached switch

    - Scene is When Input state is off on any change Do Phone notification “Garage Door Open”

  • If anyone can help with my issue for garage door control with reed switch

    - when Scene (input state is off) is triggered I get correct Alarm message

    - but input state on detached switch is only momentarily red it then resets back to green when scene is triggered

    So I don’t know if garage door is still open as input state in detached switch goes back to green when scene is triggered even though garage door is still fully open
