A second click within 10 seconds to freeze blinds going up/down?

[quack3d]

I have a blockly that opens blinds if closed and close them if open. How can I have the same switch stop the blinds going up/down if pressed within 10 seconds after open/close?

You can do that by repeating the command (works with most blinds, I am not 100% if it works with all of them)
Anyways, this how you can do that:

Huh? I think you misunderstood but I tried anyways without success:

That's what you meant?

My blinds stop if you send the command a second time. The stop command does not work in my case.
So I send "close" and 10 seconds later I send another "close".
But as I said, maybe not all blinds controllers work like that.

I see. No, I have to send the Stop command for it to stop.

Make a scene that you can use in your blockly.

It's really easy with a Lua device script, I've got a "Blinds Cat Mode" which stops the blinds after 19 seconds which is just high enough for them not to be able to paw at them.

eg:

Code: Select all

commandArray = {}

if (devicechanged['Living Room Blinds Cat Mode'] == 'On' and otherdevices['Living Room Left Blind'] == 'Open') then
commandArray['Living Room Left Blind'] = 'On FOR 19 SECONDS'
commandArray['Living Room Right Blind'] = 'On FOR 19 SECONDS AFTER 1'
end

return commandArray

Or dzVents:

Code: Select all

return {
    active = true,
    on = {
        devices = {
            'Screen'
        }
    },
    execute = function(domoticz,switch)
        
        if (switch.state == 'On') then
            switch.stop().afterSec(50)
        end
    end
}

Thanks guys but it's not exactly what I need. I see the topic is a bit misleading (edited now). I press a button for blinds to go down and I want the same button to stop the blinds if I press it within 10 seconds of the first press. So if I press the button only one time, the blinds would go completely down.

Any suggestions?
