LUA script set security status

[lusnie]

Hello all,

I'm trying to set the security status trough LUA scripting.
It seems the Security change isn't activated.

When using the Security Panel all works fine.

Code: Select all

commandArray = {}
if (otherdevices[device1] == "Off") then --Security system to be armed if it's disarmed and no one is at home
		commandArray['Domoticz Security Panel'] = 'Arm Away'
return commandArray

I have a second lua script to see if the Security Settings are changed.
This lua scripts only become active after changing the Security Panel not after the lua script above

Code: Select all

commandArray = {}
print('SecPanel: status changed to ' .. globalvariables['Security'])
return commandArray

Does anyone have an idea what i'm doing wrong?

What is the value of the device1 variable as that is which status you are testing?

Please have a look at the script and discussion in this topic Maybe it will help.

Hi,

Device1 is changed to off when i'm testing
When using a print in the code it appears in the log. So it seems that this is OK.

So you mean the actual device name is device1? in that case the test should be: if (otherdevices["device1"] == "Off")

So, this must be the name of the switch linked to security panel status.

I have this kind of scripting to control sec panel from a global presence switch driven by phones BT detection and this works from this code snippet:

Code: Select all

devSecPanel         = 'SecPanel'

-- Other stuff ...

-- Global user presence/Domoticz sec panel status management.
if (devicechanged['PresenceGlobal']) then
    -- Force auto mode back to on if needed on known user presence.
    if (otherdevices[devAlarmAutoSwitch] == 'Off') then
        commandArray[devAlarmAutoSwitch] = 'On'
    end
    
    -- Update sec panel.
    if (devicechanged['PresenceGlobal'] == 'On') then
        print('Security : DISARM (Presence)')
        commandArray[devSecPanel] = 'Disarm'
    else
        if (otherdevices[devAlarmAutoSwitch] == 'On') then
            print('Security : ARM AWAY (Presence)')
            commandArray[devSecPanel] = 'Arm Away'
        end
    end
end

And this works perfectly. On my side, in hardware, domoticz internal security panel switch is named (by me) "SecPanel" (as set in global variable devSecPanel).

So, that's just some:

commandArray[devSecPanel] = 'Disarm'
commandArray[devSecPanel] = 'Arm Away'

Commands... If your debug print is OK, IMO this is just a naming issue for the switch linked to domoticz security panel status.

Here is the complete code

Code: Select all

--------------------------------
------ Variables to edit ------
--------------------------------
device1 = "Phone: OnePlus 5" --Phone #1
device2 = "Phone: OnePlus" --Phone #2
device3 = "Phone: iPhone" --Phone #3
device4 = "Phone: OnePlus 2" --Phone #4
debug = false
--------------------------------
-- End of variables to edit --
--------------------------------

commandArray = {}

if (devicechanged[device1] or devicechanged[device2] or devicechanged[device3] or devicechanged[device4])  then
	print("Aanwezigheids script gestart ...")
	
	if (debug) then
		print("State of security system:")
		print(globalvariables["Security"])
	end
	
	-- Waardes van de devicechange tabel
	print("Following values are coming in with device changed table: ")
	deviceValue = ""
	deviceName = ""
	for name, value in pairs(devicechanged) do 
		print(name, value)
		deviceValue = value --Store value of the device changed to deviceValue variable
		deviceName = name --Store name of the device changed to deviceName variable
	end


if (globalvariables["Security panel"] == "Disarmed" and otherdevices[device1] == "Off" and otherdevices[device2] == "Off" and otherdevices[device3] == "Off" and otherdevices[device4] == "Off") then --Security system to be armed if it's disarmed and no one is at home
		print("Nobody home, activate Security System")
		commandArray['Domoticz Security Panel'] = 'Arm Away'
		commandArray["Away Mode"] = 'On' -- Zet trigger voor andere lua scripts

elseif (globalvariables["Security panel"] ~= "Disarmed" and (otherdevices[device1] == "On" or otherdevices[device2] == "On" or otherdevices[device3] == "On" or otherdevices[device4] == "On")) then --Security system to be disarmed if it's armed and someone has come back to home
		print("Security system gaat uit omdat "..deviceName.." thuis komt")
		commandArray['Domoticz Security panel']='Disarm'
		commandArray["Away Mode"]= 'Off' -- Zet trigger voor andere lua scripts
	end
end
	
return commandArray

The Switch ' Away Mode' is switched correctly. But the securitysystem is not changing to Arm Away or back to Disarm.

Have you double-checked the device name for the secpanel as that seems to be the only remaining option that could be wrong?
The disarm name is different than the arm name, so at least one is wrong!

Hi Jos,

Thanks, a problem with the name was my idea. So i was testing. But on both names no succes for switches the status of the Alarm.
In the browser the name of de SecPanel is ' Domiticz Security Panel'
All scripting examples in this forum and on the internet are the same.
I will give it a try to find the correct name.

Solved by using OpenURL

Code: Select all

commandArray['OpenURL']='http://localhost/json.htm?type=command&param=setsecstatus&secstatus=2&seccode=SECCODE'

Great !
Where did you find this information ? Would be nice if the current API/JSON wiki is updated with this but I need to know more about possible values for secstatus and seccode before I can do that in a meaningful way.
