Hi,

I don't understand the use of lastupdate. I thought that on a device script, for the device which trigger the script, it was supposed to return the last modification date before the execution of the script. (not the one which trigger the script).

Look :

Code: Select all

return 
{
    on = 
    {
        devices =  { 'Door3',  },
    },

    execute = function(dz, item)

    print('system:'..dz.time.rawTime)
    print('Domoticz:'..dz.settings.domoticzVersion)
    print('dzvents:'..dz.settings.dzVentsVersion)
    print( ' --------the trigger---------' )   
    print(item.name .. ' seconds ago' ..item.lastUpdate.raw )
    print(item.name .. ' seconds ago' ..dz.devices('Door3').lastUpdate.raw )
    print( ' --------to compare another one ---------' )
    print(dz.devices('Door2').lastUpdate.raw )   
    end
}

My need is simple : I want to play a sound when the door opens, but only if there has been no movement for 5 minutes.
with somehing like : if (item.state == 'Open' and item.lastUpdate.minutesAgo > 2) then

What do you think ?

If your version is really V3.5113 (as in your profile) you can hardly expect any useful comment on this question. This version was even before dzVents made it to version 1.0.
Since then many areas of domoticz and dzVents changed and many bugs were fixed among them also some bugs in the area of the lastUpdate processing.

Most recent fix in this area ( github issue 4112) was merged into to V2020.2 build 12002.
