Re: Dashticz - General Discussions

My domoticz floorplan is just begging for sidebars where I can add moon phase, current weather and other things that I haven't thought of yet.
Is this possible in dashticz?
thanks

Re: Moon phase

Fantastic thread & thank you for the work you did on this.
I'm wondering how you determined the internal icon numbers?
I think I understand most of what you did & I'm ready to give it a go.
thanks

Re: Best setup for Home/Away scenes?

I live in a remote rural area & geofences never worked with any reliability for me. A cell tower is in my neighborhood and I got readings that I was close when I was miles away, it was very frustrating. When I got Tasker, AutoLocation & Bluetooth to all play nice I finally had reliability & accuracy ...

Re: Mqtt - Error sending switch command

Re: Mqtt - Error sending switch command

I've summarized what I am seeing, does anyone have any insights into this? I think I have 2 issues, the first one deals with Error sending switch command on Contact The second is that I can click on Door Contacts to change the status. I think I've been told twice that's not suppose to happen. Light ...

Re: Mqtt - Error sending switch command

OK testing a little further I found that this command works perfectly if the device is set up as a Switch but not working if Contact or Door Contact. Is there something else I need to add to the command or is this a bug? I am on v3.8224 I'm thinking the error is coming from within Domoticz sending ...

Re: Mqtt - Error sending switch command

Thanks for your response. I am using mqtt.fx to publish commands as a test. I see the published command show up in my subscribed list but am getting the error message regarding the sending switch in Domoticz. My temperature sensors are all sending mqtt commands as expected.

Mqtt - Error sending switch command

Can anyone shed some light on Error sending switch command? I have ESP8266 with reed switches set up to alert me if a window is opened. The device sends an mqtt command for a contact switch in Domoticz when the status changes. The switch is NOT getting updated and I'm getting Error sending switch ...

Re: Floorplans & Sensors

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction! I gave the Door Contact a try and I find that it does change when I click on it. Contacts works the way I want! When I click on just Contacts, a data page comes up showing the last 25 changes. Don't need that but it doesn't change the value, so I can ...

Floorplans & Sensors

I am adding window & door sensors to the floorplan of my house. My thinking is the floorplan should show me the status of my house not a screen where all the sensors are listed. If the window is open the window/door should be red on the floorplan, if closed it is gray. I've created a custom sensor ...

Re: Logitech Media Server

I do now, and of course it works! Thank You!

I notice it restarts the song I was playing at the beginning, is that by design?

Thank you for getting me this far.

Re: Logitech Media Server

Yes I am actually playing music and it doesn't restore, just leaves an empty playlist.
I tired this while playing music on Tidal & my own music and I get the same result.

Thank you so much for your quick response, it's gotten me a little further. I am now getting the following error message: No such file or directory at squeeze.pl line 82.

Re: Logitech Media Server

I've just started out with Domoticz and trying to implement the LMS Alerts feature. I have never used Perl but understand the code well enough to understand what the script is doing. I've had to add the following: sudo apt-get install libjson-perl sudo apt-get install libwww-perl sudo apt-get ...

Re: Script for playing sound through lms.

Can this script run on a rPi2? My max2play & LMS are on a different rPi than Domoticz. When I run the script the song playing pauses for a second or 2 then resumes. Also if the player is paused when the script runs, the paused song starts up.

thanks for the work you are doing on this

Re: Temperature Fahrenheit

Thanks for the reply, I was thinking that I would need to change my source to Celsius for feeds to Domoticz.
I was just thinking (hoping) that I could tell Domoticz that the value is Fahrenheit, don't convert.

thanks again

Re: Temperature Fahrenheit

Ok, I've updated to the latest beta version v3.8102 and tried sending the following MQTT commands { "idx" : 5, "nvalue" : 0, "svalue" : "90;F" } and { "idx" : 5, "nvalue" : 0, "svalue" : "90;1" } and it still thinks it needs to convert to C. Should this leave it alone or must I send it in Celsius ...

Temperature Fahrenheit

Hi, just starting out with Domoticz getting my first sensors to work! I'm using mqtt to send a value to a dummy sensor and I see it's converting my temp to Fahrenheit. It's being sent as a fahrenheit value and I don't want to convert it. I found a feature request asking for this back in 2016 & was ...
