Re: Make offpeak hours available in Domoticz Settings

I dont know how it works in your country.
In NL the message is inside the smartmeter data package and thus available/detectable in domoticz.
It would show in your domoticz log as "Smartmeter: Current electricity tariff: High" or "Smartmeter: Current electricity tariff: Low"
That is easy extractable ...

Re: Icons on floorplans


How to start to get 'something' activated. I guess startup dasboard, if so, how. I presume floorplan is 'called' by dahboard.
I gues txt file is constantly updated with dynamic data, am I right that this file constantly is renewed?

Re: Icons on floorplans

I have done this without altering the native domoticz, as that would be overwritten on updates !

Domoticz has the possibility to use your own HTML templates.

Re: Using AI tools with Domoticz, anyone given it a go?


As mentioned a few weeks ago, I created something as a 'domoticz agent' using MCP. A Draft PR is available now :)

Curious to hear/read/see if/how domoticz users leverage this and what is missing/wrong/need improvements.

As it is a separate PR and not part of the Beta builds, you either need to ...

I dont use the dashboard that much. In the past i started to use the ...

Re: Hue pro delay and double script unexpected behavior question

The problem is that hue changed the way the motion sensors are managed in the hue firmware. There seems to be a different "event path"
There is much overhead that has to be handled and hue bridge seems now to bundle/cache events shortly. Found this by empiric tests outside domoticz. The motion sends ...

Hue pro delay and double script unexpected behavior question

Hi,

I noticed something strange.

Philips hue and also the pro bridge have a delay for actions on motion sensors.
This is expected as there is a long flow path with a lot of things :
motion sensor --> Bridge --> domoticz --> event read and action don in the script --> domoticz --> Hue bridge ...

Nice to read all this, here also no intent to leave domoticz as long as it will exist. Also an early user here.
What i like is the low complexity and easy way to make things the way i like it to behave.

What less experienced users not always see is the ability to run any hardware that has an api ...

It does never write a same value into any device or uservar, it checks and if the same it discarts the command.
