new lightswitch problems Topic is solved

[Pasibun]

Hej guys,

First of all, im new with domoticz. So mayby i missed something..
I want to control my Milight lamps with Domoticz. I have it working without domoticz, here for i use a nrf24l01 chip, combined with this projct: http://torsten-traenkner.de/wissen/smar ... ilight.php.
I want to add this functionality to domoticz so i follows the GPIO guide: https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/GPIO

Some information on the raspberry GPIO:
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ gpio exports
GPIO Pins exported:
19: in 0 both
21: out 0 none

In my /etc/init.d/domoticz.sh i added this:

Code: Select all

#Run export GPIO Raspberry
/usr/local/bin/gpio export 19 in
/usr/local/bin/gpio edge 19 both
/usr/local/bin/gpio export 21 out

In my domoticz environment i created a new hardware like this (see Attachments, something went wrong, cannot place a inline link)
And created a new lightswitch like this:

Knipsel2.PNG (39.57 KiB) Viewed 8454 times

On this images you see the bash files, i created them to call the openmilight script. When i call this bash script normaly it works.

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
cd /home/pi/openmilight_pi
sudo ./openmilight -d -q 14 -r 35 -c 52 -b 00 -k 01 -v CD -n 30

When i press the light switch button i get this msg in the consol:
2018-01-22 20:34:12.058 User: pasibun initiated a switch command (1/Milight woonkamer/On)
It looks like it works, but if doesn't..

Can some one tell me what i did wrong here?

Thanks,

You need an extra /

two for the syntax: script:// and one for your path to script.

script:///home/pi/dev-domoticz/scripts/milightMasterOff.sh

Hej waaren,

thanks for responding!
I changes the lines with an extra "/" but still no succes..
Any other ideas?

[waaren]

Could be several things:

-Check acces rights of your script
-Try to find out if your bash script is executed at all by adding some echo commands to a logfile using:
echo "Domoticz was here" > logfile

[Pasibun]

File permissions:
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ ls -l dev-domoticz/scripts/milightMasterOn.sh
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 138 Jan 24 17:26 dev-domoticz/scripts/milightMasterOn.sh
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ ls -l dev-domoticz/scripts/milightMasterOff.sh
-rwxr-xr-x 1 pi pi 138 Jan 24 17:26 dev-domoticz/scripts/milightMasterOff.sh

And i added the echo line but where can i find the logfile?

[htilburgs]

Just create one on a place you like

Example:
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ cd /tmp
pi@raspberrypi:/tmp $ sudo touch logfile.tst

Now you've created a logfile with the name logfile.tst in the /tmp directory

Then "echo "Domoticz was here" > /tmp/logfile.tst"

Succes

Ahh lol, sorry long day...
Thanks, will update status of the log when I'm back home.

Well, when i use the Domoticz light switch, it issnt creating a logfile, so script issn't called properly.
I changed the location of the script but still no luck.
When i run "/home/pi/dev-domoticz/scripts/milightMasterOn.sh" in the console it just works.

So.. still no luck and still no idea what i'm doing wrong..

Do you see anything in your domoticz log like below ?

This is the pinout i use for this project:

mayby i messed something up with this:

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ gpio exports
GPIO Pins exported:
19: in 0 both
21: out 0 none

In my /etc/init.d/domoticz.sh i added this:

could you setup a new virtual switch that triggers the same script on the on action and see what it does ?
maybe start without on delay

what version of domoticz are you on

[Lokonli]

Looking at the second post it seems that for the 'On' action you call the MasterOff script as well.

True, i did that because my lights were on, so i forced it to go off.
I currently have call the "on" bash script instead of off.

I will try this when im back home again.

Domoticz version: 3.8833

And what exactly do you mean by "new virtual switch"?

I removed the delay and now i get a error:

Code: Select all

Error sending switch command, check device/hardware !

So version is most likely not the cause of your problem. (I ran bash scripts triggered by an On command on the same version)

Well guys thanks for helping!
The virtual switch worked out!
The lamps are now responding on my virtual switch!
