Im doing some simple math in a lua and trying to set a switch ON for the calculated time

commandArray['Lamptest'] = 'On FOR testtime'

testtime is in this case a local variable in the lua script, whitch aint working, is it even possible?

Assuming testtime is a variable in LUA this should work fine: Jos

Thx alot Jos

Trying to understand the concept of variable. Why is it an advantage to use a variable in your script instead of just f.ex 'On FOR 5' ?

Because im doing some math in the LUA script depending on how cold it is outside, whitch makes me wanna put a switch on for X min.

On FOR xxx Minutes would ofc work but better to use the calculated value instead.

Thanks for the reply, I'm beginning to understand, but can you please post the code, that way it's possible to get a greater understanding
