With an example of another script, made by @Waaren I tried to modify this script to match this Blockly. It is not working as expected. Nothing happens. So probably I made a mistake.
This was the Blockly I wanted to convert.

And this is the DzVents code I used.

Code: Select all

return
{
     on =
     {
        timer = 
        {
            'every 5 minutes',
        },
        devices =
        {
            'Daglicht',
            'MS Zolder Overloop Beweging',
        },
    },

    logging =
    {
        level = domoticz.LOG_DEBUG,
    },
    
    execute = function(dz)
        local dimmer = dz.devices('Lamp Zolder Overloop Dimmer')
        local daglicht = dz.devices('Daglicht').state
        local motion = dz.devices('MS Zolder Overloop Beweging').state

        dz.log(dimmer.name .. ',    state: ' .. tostring(dimmer.state) , dz.LOG_DEBUG)
        dz.log('Daglicht,   state: ' .. tostring(daglicht) , dz.LOG_DEBUG)
        dz.log('MS Zolder Overloop Beweging,      state: ' .. tostring(motion) , dz.LOG_DEBUG)


        if dimmer.state ~= 'Off'  and daglicht == Off and motion == On then
            dimmer.dimTo(45).silent()
        elseif dimmer.state ~= 'Off'  and daglicht == Off and motion == Off then
            dimmer.dimTo(20).silent().afterSec(150)
            
        elseif dimmer.state ~= 'Off'  and daglicht == On then
            dimmer.dimTo(20).silent().afterSec(150)
            dimmer.switchOff().afterSec(300)

        elseif dimmer.state ~= 'Off'  and dz.time.matchesRule('after 23:30' or 'before 6:30') and motion == Off then
            dimmer.switchOff().afterSec(300)

        end
    end
}

Do you see what mistake I made? Someone can help me with this one?

You forgot to put quotes around most On and most Off strings. They should all be like "On" and "Off"

If you do not use quotes Lua / dzVents assume that these are variables and because they are not declared anywhere the are nil.

Waaren, Very good! Thank you. That's it.
I also removed the timer part.

Code: Select all

timer = 
        {
            'every 5 minutes',
        },

Is that a good thing to do? Or does this make domoticz very busy?

If you only need the script to execute when one of the devices is updated, you don't need the timer.
One script less for dzVents to look at every minute to see if a timer setting applies. So it will make life easier for dzVents..

Ok I understand. I added "'Lamp Zolder Overloop Dimmer'," to:

Code: Select all

 on =
     {
        devices =
        {
            'Daglicht',
            'MS Zolder Overloop Beweging',
            'Lamp Zolder Overloop Dimmer',
        },
    },

No I'll see how it is working in the evening. Thanks again.
The whole script now looks like:

Code: Select all

return
{
     on =
     {
        devices =
        {
            'Daglicht',
            'MS Zolder Overloop Beweging',
            'Lamp Zolder Overloop Dimmer',
        },
    },

    logging =
    {
        level = domoticz.LOG_DEBUG,
    },
    
    execute = function(dz)
        local dimmer = dz.devices('Lamp Zolder Overloop Dimmer')
        local daglicht = dz.devices('Daglicht').state
        local motion = dz.devices('MS Zolder Overloop Beweging').state

        dz.log(dimmer.name .. ',    state: ' .. tostring(dimmer.state) , dz.LOG_DEBUG)
        dz.log('Daglicht,   state: ' .. tostring(daglicht) , dz.LOG_DEBUG)
        dz.log('MS Zolder Overloop Beweging,      state: ' .. tostring(motion) , dz.LOG_DEBUG)


        if dimmer.state ~= 'Off'  and daglicht == 'Off' and motion == 'On' then
            dimmer.dimTo(45).silent()
        elseif dimmer.state ~= 'Off'  and daglicht == 'Off' and motion == 'Off' then
            dimmer.dimTo(20).silent().afterSec(150)
            
        elseif dimmer.state ~= 'Off'  and daglicht == 'On' then
            dimmer.dimTo(20).silent().afterSec(150)
            dimmer.switchOff().afterSec(300)

        elseif dimmer.state ~= 'Off'  and dz.time.matchesRule('after 23:30' or 'before 6:30') and motion == 'Off' then
            dimmer.switchOff().afterSec(300)

        end
    end
}

I'm not sure if I should open a new thread.
I'm trying to create another dzvents script. This is what I have.

Code: Select all

return
{
     on =
     {
        devices =
        {
            'Daglicht',
            'MS Overloop Lux',
            'Lamp 1e Overloop Dimmer',
 --           'MS Overloop Beweging',
        },
    },

    logging =
    {
        level = domoticz.LOG_DEBUG,
    },
    
    execute = function(dz)
        local dimmer = dz.devices('Lamp 1e Overloop Dimmer')
        local daglicht = dz.devices('Daglicht').state
--        local motion = dz.devices('MS Overloop Beweging').state
        local lux = dz.devices('MS Overloop Lux').sValue

        dz.log(dimmer.name .. ',    state: ' .. tostring(dimmer.state) , dz.LOG_DEBUG)
        dz.log('Daglicht,   state: ' .. tostring(daglicht) , dz.LOG_DEBUG)
        dz.log('MS Overloop Lux,      value: ' .. tostring(lux) , dz.LOG_DEBUG)
--        dz.log('MS Overloop Beweging,   state: ' .. tostring(motion) , dz.LOG_DEBUG)

        if dimmer.state ~= 'Off'  and daglicht == 'On' and lux >= 20 then
            dimmer.switchOff().afterSec(300)
            
        elseif dimmer.state == 'Off'  and daglicht == 'Off' and lux < 20 and dz.time.matchesRule('after 16:00') then
            dimmer.dimTo(16).silent()
        end   
 
    end
}

With this I get an error in log:

Code: Select all

 2020-06-04 18:20:36.615 Error: dzVents: Error: (3.0.5) An error occurred when calling event handler Lamp 1e Overloop
2020-06-04 18:20:36.615 Error: dzVents: Error: (3.0.5) ...z/scripts/dzVents/generated_scripts/Lamp 1e Overloop.lua:30: attempt to compare number with string

I assume this is because of the lux < 20 or lux >= 20 parts.
These come from Fibaro motion sensor, with lux value. How to solve this one?

Oh sorry, I did find the solution in the wiki. Lux is nValue instead of sValue. It is working now.
Edit: the nValue is true, but I made another mistake

If the light goes on, Lux gets higher value, so light goes off. Not good.

Why are you using nValue or sValue? The attribute you can use is much simpler; lux

Hi Waaren,
I just took a copy of another script and edited it to what i think would work in this case. Originally the part I changed from, was about sunPower from Buienradar.
Lux on this same floor was not a good idea.

I now use SunPower device from Buienradar as source.

Now my first floor landing light script is as follows:

Code: Select all

return
{
     on =
     {
        devices =
        {
            'Daglicht',
            'BR Zonnekracht',
            'Lamp 1e Overloop Dimmer',
        },
    },

    logging =
    {
        level = domoticz.LOG_DEBUG,
    },
    
    execute = function(dz)
        local dimmer = dz.devices('Lamp 1e Overloop Dimmer')
        local daglicht = dz.devices('Daglicht').state
        local sunPower = tonumber(dz.devices('BR Zonnekracht').sValue)

        dz.log(dimmer.name .. ',    state: ' .. tostring(dimmer.state) , dz.LOG_DEBUG)
        dz.log('Daglicht,   state: ' .. tostring(daglicht) , dz.LOG_DEBUG)
        dz.log('BR Zonnekracht,      value: ' .. tostring(sunPower) , dz.LOG_DEBUG)

        if dimmer.state ~= 'Off'  and daglicht == 'On' and sunPower >= 70 then
            dimmer.switchOff().afterSec(300)

        elseif daglicht == 'On' and sunPower < 70 then
                dimmer.dimTo(13).silent()
            
        elseif daglicht == 'Off' and sunPower < 70 and dz.time.matchesRule('after 16:00') then
            dimmer.dimTo(13).silent()
           
        end
    end
}

Suggestions to make it better.

Looks good !

One small concern is that if sunPower is updated more frequent then once every 5 minutes. the

Code: Select all

dimmer.switchOff().afterSec(300)

will never be executed because the new schedule of the switchOff() commands overwrites the earlier one.

Something to keep in mind if the script does not work as expected.
