Hi I am trying to read the data of my Popp Rain Sensor shown below in my dzEvents script.
how do I do that?

can you try this?

Code: Select all

return
{
    on =
    {
        devices =
        {
            1080,
        },
    },

    logging =
    {
        level = domoticz.LOG_DEBUG,
    },

    execute = function(dz, item)

        local amount = item.sValue

        dz.log('Device ' .. item.name .. ' was updated to ' .. amount .. ' ' .. item.sensorUnit, dz.LOG_DEBUG)
    end
}

Thanks for getting back so quick. Your code looks good looks. I have put it in but now I need to wait until I get actual data from the rain sensor (it is on the roof att). I will get it tested very soon and will get back here to report if it worked. thanks !

It works! thanks

Here is my complete script to determine rainfall in the past 3 days using the Popp&Co 700168 Z-Rain ZWave device. I use this to determine if I need to rain my garden.
