Dashticz Dial - Features, Fixes & Updates

[Lokonli]

Hi,
I have created a P1 Smart Meter with the following block.

Code: Select all

blocks['p1'] = {
  idx: 37,
  title: 'P1 Meter',
  type: 'dial',
  width: 4,
  min: -15,
  max: 20,
  showring: true,
  showunit: true,
  shownumbers: true,
  last_update: false
}

It all looks very nice, but the meter is flashing 2-3 times /sec. How can I stop this flashing?

The dials flash when the value is updated. Currently this is hardcoded in creative.css.

I'll make a block parameter for it.

Hi Lokonli,
Any news on this block parameter for the flashing P1 Meter Dial?

I've added the block parameter 'animation' to latest beta. To disable dial animation add the following block parameter:

Code: Select all

   animation: false

Thanks very much. It stopped flashing.

I can't seem to change the dial color ring primary and secondary if i use some specific code.
If i use the standard code like this i can change the color in the custom.css

Code: Select all

blocks['Gang_boven2'] = {
    idx: '335',   
    title: 'test',	
    type: 'dial',
    width: 6,
    showring: true,
    temp: 345,
    flash: true,
    shownumbers: true,
    showunit: true,
    min: 15,
    max: 25,    
}

But if i use this code i can't change the color for primary and secondary , only the primary changes.

Code: Select all

blocks['Gang_boven'] = {
        title: 'Gang boven',
	type: 'dial',
        width: 4,
	showring: true,
	flash: true,    
	shownumbers: true,
	showunit: true,
	min: 15,
        max: 25,
        values : [
                {
                        value: 'Temp',
                        idx: 345,
			unit: 'ºC'
                },
	        {
                        value: 'SetPoint',
                        idx: 335,
                        isSetpoint: true,
                        icon: 'fas fa-calendar-alt',
                        unit: 'ºC',
                },
                {
                        value: 'Level',
                        idx: 333,
                        icon: 'fas fa-fire',
                        unit: '%'
                },
            
        ]
}

and it would look like this, temp under setpoint is blue above setpoint is red.

Should be fixed in latest beta.
Thanks for testing.

To understand your request, with a normal thermostat block you mean the following:

And you would like to get the following:

thermostattemp.jpg (5.64 KiB) Viewed 1984 times

Is this what you mean?

[Arkie]

That's what i mean, but my setpoint and actual temp has a own idx, would also be nice if the icon color changes when heating.

Heatmiser neo thermostats

idx1 status heating (switch)
idx2 temp
idx3 thermostat

Is it possible to change the icon (power-off) on the on/off switch dial to another icon?

Couldn't find an answer. And I have the same question. I would like to have a bulb instead of on/off symbol, so it's clear that the switch is for light.
Any help appreciated!

Currently the icon is hard coded as on/off. I'll make it a block parameter.

[sailmich]

That would be fantastic! Thx in advance!

I use a dial to regulate volume of my Soundtouch. When turning I get digital points, when finished turning it will rounded up or down. Is it possible to hide the digital points? I would like to see always level without a digital point. Eg 1/2/3/4......

[frnandu]

Great work on the dial.
Here's an idea that maybe is worth implementing:

Power meter with switch on/off.
Since there are so many smart plugs with power metering, would be great to be able to combine the function of a dial on/off switch with a power meter showing current wattage and energy in kWh.

So, basically just joining this 2 blocks into one.

Code: Select all

blocks['media kwh'] = {
        idx: '5',  // A General / kWh Type device
        title: 'Media Power',
        type: 'dial',
	min: 0,
        max: 100,
    	last_update: false,
    	showunit: true,
    	values: ['Usage','CounterToday'],
        width: 3,
        showring: true
}
blocks['media'] = {
        idx:6, // A Light/Switch / Switch Type device
        title: 'Media',
        type: 'dial',
        width: 3
}

What do you guys think about this?

Hi,

Is it possible to make a dial as button.
I like to have 2 button with a link to a frame or page slide next to the buttons

Hi @Lokonli,

It is possible to have a dial configured with 2 text values in it?
I have a monitored RPi via a dzvents script, which gives a 'status' and a 'monitored status', in 2 separate devices.

Both devices give me the correct values in domoticz, I only cannot combine these (yet) in a single dial.

I tried to configure it like this:

Code: Select all

blocks['RPi-status'] = {
	title: 'RPi Status',
	type: 'dial',
	width: 4,
	values : [
        {
         value: 'Active',
         idx: 1032
        },
        {
        value: 'Status',
        idx: 1031,
        },
	]
}

[Chris12]

@lokonli,

Issue also seen in latest beta release.



domoticz:


I expect the text Active and Monitored in the dial.

[Lokonli]

Currently text devices are not supported in dials.

I'll add that to the feature request list.

That would be great! Just let me know when you want me to test something.

Hi
First of all, this Dashticz dial really nice work, and many thanks for it.
I use several years the Dashticz on two old ipad2. I want to upgrade now and would like to use the dial for my thermostats. I have two problems both problem unfortunately related to my old iPad display.
As you can see on the picture, the position of the value of the temp is not central, and the position of the outer ring totally bad, and it is still active when I turn it false. On my pc and newer tablet the visualization is ok.
I try with safari and chrome but the result is the same, I changed the apache2 to nginx but not solved it.
Do you have any suggestions for solving the problem?
