LUA script set security status to .. by remote

Hello,
I have an strange problem.
In my domoticz-system (rpi3B+ with raspbian) I wanted to use the remote control (Aeontec Keyfob gen5) to switch between security panel alarm status: Disable, Arm Away, Arm Home. With some puzzling this is working well now with the following script:
Code: Select all
commandArray = {}
if (devicechanged['remote-1'] == 'On') then
commandArray['Domoticz Security Panel'] = 'Arm Away'
print('### SecPanel: status changed to ' .. globalvariables['Security'])
end
if (devicechanged['remote-2'] == 'On') then
commandArray['Domoticz Security Panel'] = 'Arm Home'
print('### SecPanel: status changed to ' .. globalvariables['Security'])
end
if (devicechanged['remote-3'] == 'On') then
commandArray['Domoticz Security Panel'] = 'Disarm'
print('### SecPanel: status changed to ' .. globalvariables['Security'])
end
return commandArray
This script is saved as device Lua.
Changing the status of Alarm by buttons works. But the log is showing the last status of the security panel instead of the new one.
What can I change in this script to fix this? Any tips?

That is because the actual change of the secpanel is done bij domoticz after the LUA script handed the CommandArray back at termination time.
Just make a script called "script_security_panel-changes.lua" and put the print statement in there as this script is only fired when the secpanel changes.

Okay, I'll try that this evening. Thank you.

Okay. I split the script in two parts. The code is as follows
Code: Select all
commandArray = {}
if (devicechanged['remote-1'] == 'On') then
commandArray['Domoticz Security Panel'] = 'Arm Away'
end
if (devicechanged['remote-2'] == 'On') then
commandArray['Domoticz Security Panel'] = 'Arm Home'
end
if (devicechanged['remote-3'] == 'On') then
commandArray['Domoticz Security Panel'] = 'Disarm'
end
if (devicechanged['Domoticz Security Panel'] == 'Arm Away') then
print('### SecPanel: status changed to ' .. globalvariables['Security'])
end
if (devicechanged['Domoticz Security Panel'] == 'Arm Home') then
print('### SecPanel: status changed to ' .. globalvariables['Security'])
end
if (devicechanged['Domoticz Security Panel'] == 'Normal') then
print('### SecPanel: status changed to ' .. globalvariables['Security'])
end
return commandArray
Is it possible to reduce this in one part? Something like this:
Code: Select all
if (devicechanged['Domoticz Security Panel'] == 'Arm Away|Arm Home|Normal') then
print('### SecPanel: status changed to ' .. globalvariables['Security'])
end

As I mentioned in my previous post: That second part needs to be done in the script_security_panel-changes.lua script as that is fired when the SecPanel changes.
So just create that file and add these lines:
Code: Select all
commandArray = {}
print('SecPanel: status changed to ' .. globalvariables['Security'])
return commandArray

Thank you! That was helping a lot.
With this separated script I could remove the "print('SecPanel: status changed to ' .. globalvariables['Security'])"
from my tag reader LUA script too. Very good.
