Switching a device without triggering [Solved]

[rgroothuis]

I've two switches in one room to switch on/off two sets of lights. When one of the two switches is pushed, can I switches the other one without triggering an event so that the system is going into a never ending switch on/off loop? Thanks.

from dzVents docs: https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/DzVents:_ ... _scripting

silent(): Function. No follow-up events will be triggered: mySwitch.switchOff().silent().

Excellent, thanks, that is what I was looking for. Going to test it right now.

Unfortunately it doesn't work, I'm ending up into a loop where lights are continuously being switch on and off. This is my script:

Code: Select all

return {
 	logging = {
 		level = domoticz.LOG_ERROR,
 		marker = 'ControlLightSwitches'
 	},
	on = {
		devices = {
			'Badkamer1ste-Spiegel Lamp',
			'Badkamer1ste-Bad Lamp'
			
		}
	},
	execute = function(domoticz, device)
        domoticz.log('============================================================================================', domoticz.LOG_DEBUG)
        domoticz.log('Device ' .. device.name .. ' was changed. Level is: ' .. device.level .. '.', domoticz.LOG_DEBUG)
	    
    	if (device.name == 'Badkamer1ste-Spiegel Lamp') and (device.state == 'On') then
            domoticz.devices('Badkamer1ste-Bad Lamp').switchOn().silent()
    	elseif (device.name == 'Badkamer1ste-Spiegel Lamp') and (device.state == 'Off') then
            domoticz.devices('Badkamer1ste-Bad Lamp').switchOff().silent()
    	elseif (device.name == 'Badkamer1ste-Bad Lamp') and (device.state == 'On') then
            domoticz.devices('Badkamer1ste-Spiegel Lamp').switchOn().silent()
    	elseif (device.name == 'Badkamer1ste-Bad Lamp') and (device.state == 'Off') then
            domoticz.devices('Badkamer1ste-Spiegel Lamp').switchOff().silent()
   	    end


        domoticz.log('============================================================================================', domoticz.LOG_DEBUG)
	end
}

I'm using "Qubino (Goap)" devices in this room, what I noticed is when I push the button to switch on (or off) then the button in Domoticz is switch on again (after it was off for a second) and the after one or two second the button is switch off. I guess because of this behaviour I end up with this endless loop situation. Not sure how to solve this.

If you make the condition as:

Code: Select all

if spiegellamp == off and badlamp == On then
    badlamp.switchOff().silent()
elseif spiegellamp == On and badlamp == Off then
   badlamp.switchOn().silent()
elseif badlamp == On and spiegellamp == Off then
  spiegellamp.switchOn().silent()
elseif badlamp == Off and spiegellamp == On then
  spiegellamp.switchOff().silent()

Off course you should change it to match it in your script. Won't that work?

I should have used a 'local' line like:

Code: Select all

local spiegellamp = dz.devices('Badkamer1ste-Spiegel Lamp')

to make code easier.

Good suggestion, will give this a try as well to optimise it. Thanks.

[AllesVanZelf]

No, I'm sorry. The first two and the last two are basically the same. That would be a conflict.

Code: Select all

if spiegellamp == Off and badlamp == On then
    badlamp.switchOff().silent()
elseif spiegellamp == On and badlamp == Off then
   badlamp.switchOn().silent()

elseif spiegellamp == Off and badlamp == On then
  spiegellamp.switchOn().silent()
elseif spiegellamp == On and badlamp == Off then
  spiegellamp.switchOff().silent()

Somehow your script depends on the device that is triggered in the first place.

My simple trial and error would be to split the script.

Code: Select all

If spiegellamp is triggered On and badlamp is Off then switch badlamp On
elseif spiegellamp is triggered Off and badlamp is On then switch badlamp Off

and the other script:

Code: Select all

If badlamp is triggered On and spiegellamp is Off then switch spiegellamp On.
If badlamp is triggered Off and spiegellamp is On then switch spiegellamp Off.

Please share the log together with the script creating the loglines. Share the line from some seconds before the start of the script until some seconds after the script finished. It might help determining what happens when the script executes on your system.

maybe like this:

Code: Select all

return
{
    on =
    {
        devices =
        {
            'Badkamer1ste-Spiegel Lamp',
        },
    },

    logging =
    {
        level = domoticz.LOG_DEBUG,
    },
    
       execute = function(dz)
        local spiegellamp = dz.devices('Badkamer1ste-Spiegel Lamp')
        local badlamp = dz.devices('Badkamer1ste-Bad Lamp')

      dz.log('State of spiegellamp is '  .. spiegellamp.state, dz.LOG_DEBUG)
      dz.log('State of badlamp is '  .. badlamp.state, dz.LOG_DEBUG)

        if spiegellamp.state == 'On' and badlamp.state == 'Off' then
            badlamp.switchOn()
        elseif spiegellamp.state == 'Off' and badlamp.state == 'On' then
            badlamp.switchOff()

        end
    end
}

Code: Select all

return
{
    on =
    {
        devices =
        {
			'Badkamer1ste-Bad Lamp'
        },
    },

    logging =
    {
        level = domoticz.LOG_DEBUG,
    },
    
    execute = function(dz)
        local spiegellamp = dz.devices('Badkamer1ste-Spiegel Lamp')
        local badlamp = dz.devices('Badkamer1ste-Bad Lamp')

     dz.log('State of spiegellamp is '  .. spiegellamp.state, dz.LOG_DEBUG)
      dz.log('State of badlamp is '  .. badlamp.state, dz.LOG_DEBUG)

        if badlamp.state == 'On' and spiegellamp.state == 'Off' then
            spiegellamp.switchOn()
        elseif badlamp.state == 'Off' and spiegellamp.state == 'On' then
            spiegellamp.switchOff()

        end
    end
}

@waaren, this is the script and the log. It is still not working, the two lamps are going on and off sequentially.

Code: Select all

return {
 	logging = {
 		level = domoticz.LOG_DEBUG,  -- switch to domoticz.LOG_ERROR when all OK
 		marker = 'ControlLightSwitches'
 	},
	on = {
		devices = {
			'HueLichtKnop',
			'Badkamer1ste-Spiegel Lamp',
			'Badkamer1ste-Bad Lamp'
			
		}
	},
	execute = function(domoticz, device)
        domoticz.log('============================================================================================', domoticz.LOG_DEBUG)
        domoticz.log('Device ' .. device.name .. ' was changed. Level is: ' .. device.level .. ', sate is: ' .. device.state .. '.', domoticz.LOG_DEBUG)
	    
		local BedKastReneDorien = domoticz.devices('BedKastReneDorien')
		local badLamp = domoticz.devices('Badkamer1ste-Bad Lamp')
		local spiegelLamp = domoticz.devices('Badkamer1ste-Spiegel Lamp')

		if (device.name == 'HueLichtKnop') and ((device.level == 10) or (device.level == 20)) then
            domoticz.log('Button level ' .. device.level .. ' was pressed.', domoticz.LOG_DEBUG)

            BedKastReneDorien.switchOn()
		elseif (device.name == 'HueLichtKnop') and (device.level == 40) then
            domoticz.log('Button level ' .. device.level .. ' was pressed.', domoticz.LOG_DEBUG)

			--local BedKastReneDorien = domoticz.devices('BedKastReneDorien')
            --BedKastReneDorien.switchOff()
    	elseif (device.name == 'Badkamer1ste-Spiegel Lamp') and (device.state == 'On') and (badLamp.state == 'Off') then
            domoticz.log('Button: ' .. device.name .. ' was pressed and device state is ' .. device.state .. '.', domoticz.LOG_DEBUG)

            badLamp.switchOn().silent()
    	elseif (device.name == 'Badkamer1ste-Spiegel Lamp') and (device.state == 'Off') and (badLamp.state == 'On') then
            domoticz.log('Button: ' .. device.name .. ' was pressed and device state is ' .. device.state .. '.', domoticz.LOG_DEBUG)

            badLamp.switchOff().silent()
    	elseif (device.name == 'Badkamer1ste-Bad Lamp') and (device.state == 'On') and (spiegelLamp.state == 'Off') then
            domoticz.log('Button: ' .. device.name .. ' was pressed and device state is ' .. device.state .. '.', domoticz.LOG_DEBUG)

            spiegelLamp.switchOn().silent()
    	elseif (device.name == 'Badkamer1ste-Bad Lamp') and (device.state == 'Off') and (spiegelLamp.state == 'On') then
            domoticz.log('Button: ' .. device.name .. ' was pressed and device state is ' .. device.state .. '.', domoticz.LOG_DEBUG)

            spiegelLamp.switchOff().silent()
   	    end


        domoticz.log('============================================================================================', domoticz.LOG_DEBUG)

I really believe this is because of the strange behaviour of the Qubino (Goap) ZMNHHDx Mini Dimmer device. Again when I press the device in Domoticz, the state goes off, then the state goes automatically on again and follwed by going off again. This is the only device I'm experiencing this behaviour with. All my other devices are Fibaro's and when I switch off the device in Domoticz the device is immediately off.

[rgroothuis]

When searching for Qubino (Goap) ZMNHHDx domoticz I found the following:

xxx.silent doesn't work on Zwave devices: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=27607&start=20
Qubino Flush Dim State issue viewtopic.php?f=24&t=29715&start=20

So there are some more issue around the Qubino and status updates as well as ZWave and Silent function.

I'm running the following Domoticz version:

Version: 2020.2
Build Hash: b63341bc0
Compile Date: 2020-04-26 13:47:55
dzVents Version: 3.0.2
Python Version: 3.7.3 (default, Jul 25 2020, 13:03:44) [GCC 8.3.0]

@waaren, this is the script and the log. It is still not working, the two lamps are going on and off sequentially.

Could well be.

Can you try this one?

Excellent! Wauw, that script is working!

Still need to understand the logic on what you have changed. Is it about checking the time (if os.time() < ( dz.data.switched + 3) )?

Yes. Together with storing the last switched time in dzVents persistent data, that is the essential part of why this works.
Some hardware do ignore the silent() method and generate an event regardless. This script checks if the last switch occurred within 3 seconds and if so, it will not do the device actions.
