Re: Correcting values in database
As suggested I also corrected the 'DeviceStatus' sValue. The 'comparing usage' graph is now back to normal. The KWh value for today however showed one large negative peak (the correction). So I also corrected that wrong value in Meter_Calendar. Now everything looks OK again. Thank you for your tips !

Correcting values in database
I use an incremental counter to log my electricity use. Every 5 min the actual consumed KWh value in this period is sent to the counter via a MQTT message. This was working fine for more than a year now. Due to a power outage on 7 dec a wrong KWh value (more than 1000x than normal value) was sent to ...

Re: start script with parameters containing comma's
Thanks for the tip about why the comma's are being removed ! This put me on the road to a solution. As a workaround I now set the second argument as 1_2_3 (no comma's but underscores). This argument is passed by Blockly to the bash script as 1_2_3 as expected (and not secretly removing characters ...

Re: start script with parameters containing comma's
Some further testing resulted in : When I run the bash script from the command line with as second argument : 1,2,3 -> no problem, the MQTT message is sent out as 1,2,3 "1,2,3" -> no problem, the MQTT message is sent out as 1,2,3 When the script is called from Blockly with as second argument : 1,2,3 ...

start script with parameters containing comma's

Re: Log of gas count values
My hall sensor generates a pulse after every rotation of the last digit on my gas meter (i.e. one pulse per 0.01 m3)
So the logging is done with 2 decimals.
If I check the logged values, the 3rd decimal is always 0.

Log of gas count values
Setup: Domoticz 2022.1 running on a RPi 3 I have a gas counter (Type General, Counter Incremental) that counts pulses from a hall sensor on the gas meter. I noticed that sometimes the values in the log graphs are not consistent. The values in Domoticz "per hour" graph match perfectly with the values ...

Re: Getting values from temperature-humidity sensor
@FireWizard
Publishing via MQTT does indeed give me the 'real time' values of the sensor.
Thanks !

Re: Getting values from temperature-humidity sensor
Can I publish the value of just one device to MQTT ? I don't want to flood my MQTT broker with all updates of all devices.

After inclusion in Z-wave the Heiman created device #1282 in Domoticz and it appears under the 'Temperature' tab. I use the following flow : flow1.jpg The 'inject' node triggers every minute The 'exec' node request the values of #1282 using curl -s 'http://192.168.1.xxx:8080/json.htm?type=devices ...

Getting values from temperature-humidity sensor
I have a Z-wave temperature-humidity sensor (Heiman). The sensor works fine and in Node-Red I can query the device every minute, but the values change only after 5 min. I know the Heiman sends out values at shorter intervals. How can I capture the Temp/Hum values in 'real time' and send them to MQTT ...

Re: ozwcache* missing
I think I found the answer :
The ozwcache*.xml is for open Z-wave 1.5+
If you have Z-wave 1.4 (like me), you would have a ozwcfg*.xml file

I am running Domoticz 4.10717 with Z-wave 1.4-3335 on a RPi 3 (Jessie). I think my z-wave experience is similar to many others : z-wave devices will run smoothly for weeks even months, but suddenly they become unresponsive or are not recognized any more. Usually an exclude/include of the failed ...

Re: MQTT message to receive status of all devices
I found the error.
The MQTT broadcast was triggered by an on/off type dummy switch with an automatic 'off ' after 3 sec.
So it triggered the script again again when it went to 'off '' .
I changed it to a 'push on' switch, and now is OK.

Re: MQTT message to receive status of all devices
I fine tuned the MQTT broadcast by using the MQTTSyncTrigger label in the description field of the devices I want to sync. This works fine, however about 1 second after all the messages arrived, they are being send again so I receive them twice. It's not a big issue but is there a way to avoid this ?

Re: MQTT message to receive status of all devices
Success ! 
I removed the script call from the dummy switch definition and renamed the switch to MQTT-Broadcast, the exact name in that is in the script.
I did not realize that :
was referring to the triggering switch name
.
Thanks waaren !

Re: MQTT message to receive status of all devices
I tried triggering the script with a dummy switch using script:///home/pi/domoticz/scripts/dzVents/generated_scripts/BroadcastAllDevices.lua This generates a script command error 32256, so I changed the permissions for the script to 755. Now it gives me error 512. I am new to dzvents so I'm not sure ...

Re: MQTT message to receive status of all devices
Triggering the dzvents script via MQTT results in "Unknown command received: customevent".
Could it be that I need dzevents 3.0.0 to use customvents?
I am still on Domoticz 4.10717 which uses dzvents 2.4.19 .
