Thanks, that worked very well, thanks for the unreal fast response!

I cannot figure out why my blockly isnt working, i hope you guys can give me some advice..

i want to close my suncreen (zonnescherm) when it's in state of Open and when its 22:00 (in case i am not home and i forget to close the screen by myself.)
when it closes i want it to send out an message to Kodi and an e-mail and mentioned in the log.



what is wrong here?

Try formating like this:-

If [Switch = State] and [Time = ??:??]

Thank you both, that helped me out a lot, its a logical thing after all
it didn't work for the first time, the sunscreen didnt go up, but i did get a mail, sow the part before "Do" worked.
after some testing i decided to use the group where the sunscreen belongs to.

so now i have this working:


i don't understand why the suncreen goes to "close" but turning the group to "off" works

[tozzke]

You'll probably have to use 'Open'/'Closed' in the If statement and 'On'/'Off' in the Do section

[shamie]

You'll probably have to use 'Open'/'Closed' in the If statement and 'On'/'Off' in the Do section

yeah maybe i will give that a shot as well.

Hi,

Working on similar script, to have my screens closed when it is after 07:30 and before 18:00.
Script checks if screen is open, then time check followed by actual status of light sensor. when bigger then 1100lux screen to close.
This is what I made of it:



It works for the part that the screen needs to close.

I also have a script that opens the screen at 19:00 hours.
When screens are closed the script opens them. Problem is that the script to close the screens then closes them and I get looped in open /close.

It appears that the time statement is not working in the screens_neer script.

Below what I made to open the screens


Any ideas what I am overlooking or not understanding correctly?
Help much appreciated.

[Benneton]

Looking at it I believe I have worked it out.
In the time statement it sould be AND instead of OR.

Will change and see if it works tomorrow.

Bernard

[Benneton]

That did the trick

Has anyone got read power working?
I'm trying to do this:

Screen Shot 2018-07-31 at 21.46.03.png (29.71 KiB) Viewed 3791 times

I have a wall tablet with an inline aeon smart relay. When the tablet is charging, it usually charges over 10 Watts. I want to disconnect the power of the power supply after 1h when its power consumption drops below 10 Watts (about getting fully charged).

I have this tablet always on and charging, and I'm having problems with it I think due to overheating (always powered to the power supply).

The first part of it: if power < 10 does not seem to work in blockly for me, is there a way to get the power reading?

I'm trying blocky to have domoticz send me a notification when the outside temperature gets below the temperature inside the house, so I have to start opening doors and windows. I'm using blocky as I have no idea how to program in Lua. However, I can't get it to work properly.

I have setup a virtual switch (Woonkamer_Temp) that is set to ON when outside_temp < livingroom_temp AND time is between 18.00-2330 hrs
In the virtual switch (Woonkamer_Temp) I have setup a notification when it switches to ON

The switching part works like a charm, however I keep getting notification every minute or so. I can see in the log that the 'Woonkamer_Temp' switch is polled all the time, hence sending a new notification every time. How can I prevent domoticz from doing that? I just want to have a notification one time. Can't get it to work in blocky.

Make sure you select the right trigger event (device, time, etc...) on your blockly diagram

[henk99]

I'm sorry, can you elaborate? I'm fairly new to this. What I would like doesn't seem too difficult in my mind, but the blockys I made don't work. They keep repeating. I just want domoticz to send me one notification...it sounds so simple, and in Lua it is perhaps, but I can't figure out programming like that, i'm sorry. So, I'm either hoping for someone to show me what is wrong in my blocky or someone that can show me a lua script for me to figure out.

Your blockly does switch your notification triggerdevice every time the temperature condition evaluates to true.
Using the checkFirst option in dzVents you can prevent that . This small dzVents script should do the job.

Code: Select all

--  activateNotificationSwitch.lua 

return { 
         on = {   timer   =   {"every minute between 16:00 and 23:30 on 15/4-15/9"}}, -- during spring and summer

    execute = function(domoticz)
      
        if  domoticz.time.matchesRule("at 16:00-23:28") then
           if domoticz.devices("Buiten temperatuur").temperature <= domoticz.devices("Woonkamer").temperature then
                domoticz.devices("Woonkamer_Temp").switchOn().checkFirst()
           end
        else
            domoticz.devices("Woonkamer_Temp").switchOff().checkFirst()
        end      
end
}

No worries! Here, under blockly you have many options there how to trigger the event

Hi Waaren. thank you so much! I have implemented it in my domoticz and it worked like a charm. Very happy with this!

Is the last piece of the code not. The else is for the temperature check,

Code: Select all

           if domoticz.devices("Buiten temperatuur").temperature <= domoticz.devices("Woonkamer").temperature then
                domoticz.devices("Woonkamer_Temp").switchOn().checkFirst()
                else
          	domoticz.devices("Woonkamer_Temp").switchOff().checkFirst()
       		end

One question/request on this. As this script is setting a virtual switch, I found out it remains switched on until I switch it off manually. I didn't know this, which results in the script thinking that it has already sent me the message. Is there a way that this script switches off the switch at midnight so it's off again the next day?

Place the end before the else statement behind the statement. Then the problem is solved.

         on = {   timer   =   {"every minute between 16:00 and 23:30 on 15/4-15/9"}}, -- during spring and summer

                domoticz.devices("Woonkamer_Temp").switchOn().checkFirst()
           else
            domoticz.devices("Woonkamer_Temp").switchOff().checkFirst()
            end
        end      
end
}
