Hi!

I have a meter (Everspring AN181, Z-Wave) that measures power in a shed. However, sometimes someone accidentally turns off the power to the shed, and stuff like a fridge doesn't like that.

Is there any way I can fire events on the latest update of a device, or the absence of a Z-Wave node from the mesh?

If you have a look at my pass2php script you'll find examples of that.
I receive message if a node is marked as dead and also when a devices hasn't sent anything for 4 hours.

Thanks for the reply. I just looked at it, and if I get it right, you are using lua, to pass openzwave values to php, which then starts influencing Domoticz .. Why not use the commandArray['SendNotification'] (for me) or commandArray['UpdateDevice']?

Anyway, thanks a bunch for pointing out Lua can catch this

Because I don't know anything about lua and I love PHP code.
the pass2php lua script passes all statusses, updatetimes, svalues etc to a php script. There it's put in arrays so they can be used to trigger anything you can imagen.

This turned out to be very doable in the native LUA, please find snippet below

Code: Select all

commandArray = {}

function timedifference (s)
  year = string.sub(s, 1, 4)
  month = string.sub(s, 6, 7)
  day = string.sub(s, 9, 10)
  hour = string.sub(s, 12, 13)
  minutes = string.sub(s, 15, 16)
  seconds = string.sub(s, 18, 19)
  t1 = os.time()
  t2 = os.time{year=year, month=month, day=day, hour=hour, min=minutes, sec=seconds}
  difference = os.difftime (t1, t2)
  return difference
end

upd_delta = timedifference (otherdevices_lastupdate['Verbruik Vrieskist'])
print("Vrieskist not updated since "..upd_delta.." seconds");

if (upd_delta > 900) then
        commandArray['SendEmail']='Vrieskist problemen#Al '..upd_delta..' seconden geen update van de vrieskist meer ontvangen#[email protected]'
end

This works, however if the condition is true it will send you an email every minute (if used as a time script).

I've added an uservariable which is set when the email is sent. From this variable I check if the time difference since last update is > 1800. So I get an email every 30 minutes.

Can you please post the code for this! I have a couple of scripts with notifications beeing sent every minute, and would really like to avoid this

Sure, just like this:

Code: Select all

difference = timedifference(otherdevices_lastupdate['Sensor1'])

if difference > 3700  then
    if timedifference(uservariables_lastupdate['Sensor1 Notification']) > 3600 then
		print('No data received for '..difference ..' seconds')
		send_notification('Tom','No data received from sensor 1')
		commandArray['Variable:Sensor1 Notification']='TIMER'
	end
end

send_notification() is my own function, just replace it by something that will send you a notification.
'Sensor1 Notification' is an Uservariable of the type string which has to be created first.
