The webinterface shows general info about e.g. errors.
Before I reported about unhandled MQTT messages. I was adviced to check with mqtt explorer.
I was unable to trace the errors. Now I wonder if there are more error-logfiles somewhere in the OS.

Re: how to use notifications
Walter, all you say is true. But if the wifi is not that stable misinformation might be there once a single event would fire a notification. And yes, the wifi in the building is not reliable.

Re: how to use notifications
@HvdW
Thanks for the example. I had a quick view. Do I understand it notifies in case of a failure but not once the failure is solved?
Great link to all examples! I've never been aware of this treasure

If relay has been energized power is there.
If power fails relay is deenergized

Re: how to use notifications
@Waltervl
There are relays supplied by power circuits to monitor.
The relay change-over contact controls input of esp which in turn controls the domoticz device via MQTT so no Amp value. Also using Amp value might be not always reliable in case of no consumers in use.

Re: how to use notifications
@ HvdW So far the script does what's desired. It's in use for almost two weeks now and then next Q rises: On board vessels we had an alarmsystem with possibility to delay incoming alarms e.g. for tanklevels (due to vessels movements). Is such a delay doable to get a more 'quit' system (preventing ...

Re: how to use notifications
This is the updated script. I tested as far as possible but I think it does what is expected. What is it used for? This domoticz application is installed in a scouting building. Since the building has been used (newbuilt ) we face now and then a trip of 'groep 13'. As there is not always anybody in ...

Re: how to use notifications
Thanks again! This handles notifcation from 'off to on'.
Do I need two scripts once I also like notification for 'on to off'?

Re: how to use notifications
Thanks very much for your help. I am using dzVents for simple scripts where I never used the data{} strophe. So have to read the docu about this.
I didnot mention that in fact I have three of these monitors.
Can you tell me how to update your script for 3 devices?
Thanks!
Bart

Pushsafer is my app to send pushmessages to inform me about 'a status'. I am facing next problem. The availability of voltage on an endcircuit is monitored by a relay. If the circuit breaker of that end-circuit trips the relay goes to 'off' The on/off signal is interfaced using an esp and published ...

Re: bug/problem with zigbee switch
Thanks Walter. This makes sense. Next time I'll check the results of the AD devices. Pitty name goes over IDX as I sometimes change names to later realize the name was in a script. Maybe it's a idea to run a sql script to look for double or more used names. Over 10 yrs ago I did database programming ...

Re: bug/problem with zigbee switch
Thanks. This did the trick.
But I don't understand why the IDX (being unique) which I used in the script caused this problem.
Can you try explain to me why such happens?
BTW: zigbee 2MQTT AD created these names
Thanks again! Bart

Hi! A zigbee powerplug can be controlled from both z2m dashboard as well as from domoticz. Problem happens when I try to control the on/off of the plug by a script. return { on = { devices = {1837} }, -- 1836 = knop 1 single remote control -- 1837 = knop 2 single remote control -- 1829 = wcd staand ...
