switch off after

[pvklink]

Hi, i have an on/off switch that is set by measuring the usage of a washingmachine.
When it is finished my on/off switch is triggered to on and a wav file is played..
So far so good...
I also made a script for the on/of switch so that is will be turned off after 10 seconds...
This doed not work, and i dont know why... seems so easy...

-- switch
return {
on = {devices = {'voice_vorstalarm'}},

logging = { level = domoticz.LOG_DEBUG ,
marker = "Security"},

execute = function(dz, device, info)

if device.state == 'On' then
device.switchOff().afterSec(10)
end
end
}

What this script does is switch Off the voice_vorstalarm 10 seconds after it has been switched On. Is that what you intend ?
If so please add a log statements to see what happens.

Code: Select all

-- switch 
return {
on = {devices = {'voice_vorstalarm'}}, 

logging = { level = domoticz.LOG_DEBUG , 
marker = "Security"},

execute = function(dz, device, info)

dz.log("device " .. device.name .. " switched to " .. device.state,dz.LOG_DEBUG)
if device.state == 'On' then 
device.switchOff().afterSec(10)
end
end
}

Yes, when it becomes colder then x-degrees i get a voice message but the switch stays on..
So i want it off again after a period of time....
added the log now wait for a temperature change

mmm.. strange it works now
problem was the refresh timer of my dashticz

does work when i manually set the switch on but when my temperature script triggers this switch i get this

2019-02-13 13:30:17.172 Status: dzVents: Debug: Security: Constructed timed-command: Off
2019-02-13 13:30:17.172 Status: dzVents: Debug: Security: Constructed timed-command: Off AFTER 10 SECONDS
2019-02-13 13:30:17.172 Status: dzVents: Debug: Security: device voice_vorstalarm switched to On

Seems the standard messages to me. Maybe confusing but that is what you normally see when debug mode is on and you use the afterXXX() method .

mm.. it says device voice_vorstalarm switched to On ! instead of off

mm.. it says device voice_vorstalarm switched to On ! instead of off

Yes. That comes from this line

Code: Select all

dz.log("device " .. device.name .. " switched to " .. device.state,dz.LOG_DEBUG)

The other lines are from internal dzVents / domoticz when line

Code: Select all

device.switchOff().afterSec(10)

is interpreted. Confusing part is probably the sequence.
