Now I am not able to let the pump run on itself if it needs to be primed, what needs to happen every now and then. How often does this happen and for how long does the pump need to run in that situation? It depends on how much air there is in the suction pipe. at least twice, three time a year ...

the idea is that if one or more valves are enabled, this wil start the pump and will disable the valves and pump (minus 5 sec), meaning that if the last valve has been disabled, it needs to shut down the pump. the pump needs to continue when at least one valve is on, even if the other valves are ...

NB: The sequence of afterMin and silent etc. is important, you can't put them just anywhere. ' as long as the action ( switchOff(), switchOn(), dimTo() etc.. ) is first, the order of the options does not matter. dz.devices('bla').switchOn().silent().checkFirst().afterSec(23) is equivalent to dz ...

Hi @broker, I got your script running in the setup that you chose. NB: The sequence of afterMin and silent etc. is important, you can't put them just anywhere. I changed the print statements into logWrite with a LOG_FORCE and turned off debugging, so that I have more control of what is appearing on ...

I have made some changes to the code: return { on = { devices = { 'Waterpomp', 'Sproeier Voor', 'Sproeier Achter', 'Druppelslang' }, }, data = { voor_aan = {initial= false}, achter_aan = {initial= false}, druppel_aan = {initial= false} }, logging = { level = domoticz.LOG_DEBUG, marker = 'Waterpomp ...

there is no error, but the toggle seems to break, when it is in place as is, it seems to be working.
I will try with the real booleans, but I thought that is was not supported in dzvents...?

I did, that breaks the script... and yes I totally understand, its an art itself

ah, yes, light switches (on/off)

the devices are z-wave sockets that are controlling a waterpump, and 3 watervalves that are powered by 24v transformers, and again to z-wave sockets. the idea of the program is that if one area is enabled, the pump should get pumping, and if another are is added the pump should continue for the ...

Hello, I have a script to automatically turn on my waterpump at the moment a watergroup "asks" water, for instance druppelslang. then the pump and the druppelslang will run for a set amount of time, and it will stop, or it has to be manually disabled. I use silent() to overcome the script rerunning ...

Please ignore the double / triple Debug messages. Only the last constructed timed-commands per device are send trough to domoticz main program. I don't see any next event scripts triggered so don't understand. What is now not working as expected? Yes, I found it, my mistake, as I was testing with a ...

it seems that the script will break at the moment I make that change, when I enable one of the watering groups the pump will not enable. I think the system sees the second one as a state change and will issue the script again, then it thinks that it has been toggled manually and will handle it as ...

it seems that the script will break at the moment I make that change, when I enable one of the watering groups the pump will not enable. so, after this trail I analyzed the debug, and what I see is that in the scenario of forMin(sproeitijd) it works, however when I use the: pomp.switchOn() pomp ...

Thanks Waaren, I just made the change in the code, i'll test it tomorrow.

Hello, I have created a script to automatically turn on my waterpump when one of the watering zones has been enabled. next to that it will run for a certain period as defined as "sproeitijd" the functions are, enable to pump alone, no zone enable a zone -> pump needs to enable too extra zone -> pump ...

lol that makes sense, thanks!
its good to make mistakes, now I learned what to look for in my other scripts, as I am converting my blockly to dzvents.

hmm, I guess I am in need of some more advice, I guess I am using the persistent variable wrong, can some one please have a look. if I execute one of the zones, i get this message: Error: dzVents: Error: (3.0.4) .../domoticz/scripts/dzVents/generated_scripts/pomp_lua.lua:57: attempt to index a nil ...

Thanks, I was not aware of that fact, I just read up on the persistent vars and I will change it and check if it works!

Hello, it seems that I have run into a brick wall and I am in need of an extra set of eyes (more experianced!) I am building a script for my wellpump and 3 zones that are switched via a z-wave powersocket I want the pump to automatically start when I enable one of the zone switches for 60minutes -1 ...
