Event triggered automatically

[armaster]

Hi,

I'm new in Domoticz/Blockly and I have a problem setting a push button acting as switch.

1. From "Learn Light/Switch" I created a "Push On Button" with name "BlackButton".
2. I created user variable "BlackButtonVariable", type = "String", default value = "on".
3. I created a Blockly script with name "BlackButtonScript" which should make push button acting as switch:

If I click "BlackButton" in Domoticz or if I push physical button, It works as expected.
This is log:

The problem is, that script is periodically triggered by system after about each half minute which changes state of switch (I did not press button):

Is it a problem in my script?

Thanks for your help.

Is it a problem in my script?

The issues are that the script is not only triggered by the pushbutton but by an update of any device. This combined with the default behavior of a Push On button (it doesn't switch to Off if not set like below) will cause the effect you see.

Don't understand why off delay should be 1, but it works. Thanks.

A push on button won't go to the state off. It's always in the on state. So every time your script starts it Wil see the button is on.

The blocky script starts by every device change, so more often then you think.

If you make the button to go off the script won't do thee actions. Hopefully it helps you understanding.
