'On For x' doesn't work?!!

[abdolhamednik]

hello everyone


i have problem with the command:
commandArray['deviceA'] = 'On For x' ... it doesn't work. deviceA maintains on for all times!
does anyone have seen this problem?

This should work fine and switch it on for 1 minute:

Code: Select all

commandArray['deviceA ']='On FOR 1'

What type of switch is deviceA and what is the exact statement you use?

i have problem with the command:

This does happen if deviceA was already On.

I think it is safer to use

Code: Select all

commandArray[#commandArray + 1] = { ['deviceA' ] = 'On' }
commandArray[#commandArray + 1] = { ['deviceA' ] = 'Off AFTER ' .. x }
