Re: So I redesigned Domoticz from a usability perspective..

Loving it! The one thing i noticed that im not a huge fan of is the buttons at the bottom for adding/learning a light etc. If you force those to always be visable then its wasted space, but who wants to scroll to the bottom to get to those? i have a good deal of switches and that would be annoying ...

Re: Scene/Group control with a remote

oh are you doing it with the "on action" script on the switch device? that makes more sense, i'll have to screw around with that one, thanks!

Re: Scene/Group control with a remote

So in reading that I found that it is the same as LUA (basically an extension of it) so if the LUA isnt detecting the device change then PHP wont as well. In the scripts you wrote I dont see anything related to the minimotes to say if minimote in devicechanged sort of deal. how are you getting it to ...

Re: Scene/Group control with a remote

Yeah i have yet to play with php scripts, but i would imagine it has the same issue if the remote cant trigger an event, which was the issue in LUA. basically when i inspected the deviceChanged it was never listed in there. Can you provide some directions or a link on how to set up these scripts ...

Re: Scene/Group control with a remote

Can you speak to the config of it? I tried to do some stuff with LUA but was unable to because it doesnt show up as a changed device so i could never detect the On event from the remote. Its been a little bit since i looked at it, but i also considered just assigning it to an empty group/scene (not ...

Re: Scene/Group control with a remote

I was considering looking at tweaking the code a bit to see if i could get the remotes to act as a device, basically forcing it to toggle (since it only sends one command) but I havent had time with work lately. Also im not sure how badly this would break the rules, but it seems like a great use case.

Adding hardware (Honeywell RTH9580)

Hey guys, I just got the Honeywell RTH9580 wifi thermostat and im looking to get it added in to Domoticz. I've seen some folks who have done stuff with scripts to do this but there is also adding code to the primary code base. Also I kind of get the impression that the API they use kind of generic ...

Re: Converting a script to lua for Domoticz

SweetPants has the right idea, thats actually LUA. Fireman112 - thats Arudino code, in order to get the Arudino to report to Domoticz you'll need to do one of a few things 1) MySensors.org - I played with this a bit and i had a lot of problems with the radio and its power source, im starting to ...

Re: Converting a script to lua for Domoticz

This looks a whole lot like arduino code used to build a basic weather station and not at all LUA. Also there is nothing in this code that would send it to an external system. Basically it jsut reads the temp sensor and display it on the LCD. What is your goal? What are you working with? (arduino i ...

Re: devicechanged is nil

yeah the "device" event type doesnt get triggered in this case so i cant get it to list the devices.

Its a scene controller so maybe i could create a scene with virtual switches and try that.

well thats a bummer, is there any way to do this? A timer seems bad since it triggers every minute and that would be way to slow response wise.

Re: devicechanged is nil

oh, interesting! I guess i never really look at that box since "all" seemed like a fine value to leave things at. So i've changed it to device but now its not triggering. I wonder if because its looking for a state change and not incoming events? The "switch" (buttons show up as a switch device) but ...

Re: devicechanged is nil

so I would guess so because im noticing the time stamp on the errors are all on the minute (give or take a few ms)

I dont see anything that defines it as a 'time' script? how would i make it an 'event' script vs 'time' script?

devicechanged is nil

so i was trying to see what sort of message/data my scene remote would send so i can try and capture the button events, so i jsut setup a very simple test, commandArray = {} print ("we're going to check the state of the button"); if (devicechanged['R1B2s'] == 'On') then print("captured change to On ...

Re: [Aeon ZW078] Missing kWh meter in devices

so once you add the device via the CP you'll notice that in the device list (not via hardware, but the "device" listing) there should be a bunch of new devices in there that will give you those outputs, on the right hand side you'll see a green arrow which tells you that dom is aware of the device ...

hey @dzaret, https://github.com/OpenZWave/open-zwave/wiki/Adding-Security-Devices-to-OZW there are the details, but the short of it is you need to define a security key in the ozw config and then securely add it (the include secure on the CP) its been a while since i messed with it, but if you've ...
