Re: Changing Dimmer level with Selector switch
I did some quick testing on 6 Tradfri spots. I found that using the room switch (created by the Hue bridge/app) does not work well because of the delay between the individual lights and the room switch. So best to use the individual lights in your script. Also found a flaw in my script, corrected in ...

Re: Changing Dimmer level with Selector switch
That's what I meant. From 0 to 100% in 10 seconds 100 messages are send over the Zigbee network. I think it will clog my Zigbee network. I doubt it. In the original case (where the dimmer switch dims lights through the Tradfri bridge) the same happens without a problem. You could change the ...

Re: Changing Dimmer level with Selector switch
Doesn't that create a lot of "traffic"? No, the "Up" statement of the switch is only once send to DZ over MQTT, as well as the "Stop" statement. The light itself is controlled by the Hue brigde. So it's only like you would change the level of the light by the slider in the GUI. For every percentage ...

Re: Changing Dimmer level with Selector switch
Hi, Found your topic when i was looking for the same solution. Meanwhile i found a way to also use the "up" and "down" function of the remote. It was actually very simple. This is how i did it. It does create some queued events but only for a short time and cancels the queud events when the button ...

MQTT customEvents - Invalid data
Hi, I run a ping script on one domoticz instance and want the data to be send to another domoticz instance on another Pi by MQTT with the customEvents command. I don't want to use the remote server plugin, because i need the data to be sent immediately after the ping happened. The message gets ...

Re: Strange behavior in logging (triggering and internal script logging) [Solved]
logging = { level = domoticz.LOG_INFO, marker = 'LOGGING', }, The trigger logging is also controlled by the logsetting in the script (See above). If it set to LOG_ERROR you won't see the Start and Finished as below. Result when set as above in the script and with Errors + minimal execution info ...

Strange behavior in logging (triggering and internal script logging) [Solved]
Hi all, Today i noticed that the logging is not complete anymore when dzVents scripts are triggered. latest beta 13149 and also in 13133 on RPI4. Especially time-triggered scripts do not show anything in the logs anymore. Other scripts do show their triggering but not the internal logging in the ...

ZIGBEE2MQTT, subdevices not updating after friendly name change in Z2M frontend.
Hi, Yesterday, i installed zigbee2mqtt plugin and use the CC2531 stick. New hardware is allowed. Everything went fine, until I changed the friendly name of the maindevices in the frontend of Z2M. The created subdevices are not responding anymore. However, the plugin still updates it’s maindevices. ...

Re: Action doorbell, blocky script and camera
Hi, I don't use the sub/slave devices option, but i think your problem might have to do something with it. It's not because you have set the doorbell as a slave device, it will just do what you want it to do (send a snapshot) I don't know Blockly that well, but i don't think the option for snapshots ...

Visual TimedOut/Unreachable for all devices (eg Hue devices)
Hi, As many, i use the Hue bridge. Works perfect with domoticz, exept for the "reachable" state of it's connected devices. The Hue app and some other apps show the unreachable state, but Domoticz does not. At least, i can not find it. So a light could be shown as "On" in Domoticz, while actually it ...

Hardware sensor: external HDD, twice the actual
Hi,
I use the hardware sensors to "read" my RPi 3B+.
More or less, they all appear correct. Except for my external HDD. Gparted says it's 47% used. Domoticz says it's 86% used.
Is it a hardware or a Domoticz issue?
Thx,
Jimmy

Re: Doorswitch to turn on and off a light
Glad it's solved
Meanwhile did a quick test with and without the .name attribute.
Both output true if so
so, issue must have been in the name of the devices.

Re: Doorswitch to turn on and off a light
Hi, I have some of the same door/window sensors. They send a 'On' command for both the open and close state but with a different EV1527 code. Maybe try to change: if door == open then ... elseif door == closed then ... with if door.name == open.name then ... elseif door.name == closed.name then ...

Re: Multiple choice selector switch
Until then I am happy to see if I can help to overcome the problem with string.match and identify which states are active when combined. Thanks for your fast reply and sorry for my late answer :-) I worked arround this by renaming my devices, so i don't need string.match anymore in this case. But ...

Hi, I have some selector switches by wich events will be executed or not, depending on its state. Sometimes, multiple states may be executed but then i need to combine levels in new levels, like: level10= x, level20= y, level30= z, level40= x+y, level50= x+y+z, level60= y+z, level70= x+z. In my ...
