On this rainy Sunday a good moment for testing my first very little dzVents script.
That was disappointing.
Taken from the video 26:18:
Make this changes:
But get this error:

Seems like a very descriptive error message to me. The scene "Tuin Lantaarns" does not exist or is not visible yet to dzVents.
If domoticz was already restarted after creation of the scene it might be that Tuin Lantaarns is not spelled exact (Case matters) or that it is no scene but a device or group.

Looking further myself.
Confusion:
Scene
Group
Result

Why can Blockly events works on daily base with "Tuin Lantaarns"
The I will try it on a device in the room.
Code: Select all
return {
on = {
timer = {
'at 6/10 between 15:42 and 15:43'
},
},
execute = function(domoticz, dummy)
domoticz.devices('Kamer Midden').switchOn()
end
}

That
'at 6/10 between 15:42 and 15:43' is also not working properly.
It had to be domoticz.
groups('Tuin Lantaarns').switchOn() (To be sure I copied the name from the Devices list.)
But also here: NO switching OFF
For 4 mei I can't use it.

The result I post here
Tuin Lantaarns is not a scene. It is a group !

Resume.
My problem is solved.
1) It was a group and it had to be put this way in 't script: domoticz.groups('Tuin Lantaarns').switchOn()
2) To be sure of the right spelling of the name I copied from the Devices list.
Sadly we bumped to an other problem.
The 'at dd/mm between hh:mm and hh:mm' rule switched the device/group on, but NOT OFF.
For the search, I think, it's better to close this one.

You misunderstand the concept of the timer section.
In this section it is determined when the script should be triggered.
The what the script must do is defined in the execute section.
So if you want to switch something on on the 6th of october at 15:42 and switch it off at 15:43 on the same day the script should look like:
Code: Select all
return {
on = {
timer = {
'on 6/10 at 15:42'
},
},
execute = function(domoticz)
domoticz.devices('Kamer Midden').switchOn()
domoticz.devices('Kamer Midden').switchOff().afterMin(1)
end
}

In the
https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/DzVents: ... scripting
there are giving a lot of examples like:
Code: Select all
'between aa and bb' -- aa/bb can be a time stamp like 15:44
-- aa/bb can be sunrise/sunset
-- aa/bb can be 'xx minutes before/after
sunrise/sunset'
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And this one:
-- or if you want to go really wild and combine them:
'at nighttime at 21:32-05:44 every 5 minutes on sat, sun',
'every 10 minutes between 20 minutes before sunset and 30 minutes after sunrise on mon,fri,tue on 20/5-18/8'
If that is not working where I get then the right info for learning dzVents.

Sorry but you miss my point on the concepts of the different sections as I explained in my previous post. I don't know how to make it more clear.
I will try in a PM to you in dutch

Every problem solved.
Code: Select all
return {
on = {
timer = {
'on 04/05 at 20:00',
},
},
execute = function(domoticz, dummy)
domoticz.groups('Tuin Lantaarns').switchOn()
domoticz.groups('Tuin Lantaarns').switchOff().afterMin(2)
end
}
