Smoke detector reset

Posted: Wednesday 05 May 2021 14:58

Hello community,

I have a problem with resetting my smoke detectors (433Mhz)

They switch on perfectly, I can reset the detectors and they seem to reset the devices.
They turn "Off" but when I run a script (LUA) to check if they are "Off" the script runs as if they are turned on.

Restarting Domoticz does the trick. Then the script sees the detectors in the "Off" status.

Do I miss something here? Is this a bug?

Thanks in advance!
Keith

Can you try after a reset of your smoke detector from a Lua / dzVents script using

Code: Select all

http://<domoticz IP: domoticz port>/json.htm?type=command&param=resetsecuritystatus&idx=<IDX>&switchcmd=Normal
Maybe a next script will see the state of the detector as 'Off' or as 'normal' after this?

Waaren,

thank you for replying.

I tried all the json commands found in the wiki.
It did nothing, the script saw the detector "On".

Restarting Domoticz is currently my only solution. :geek:

Greeting's,
Keith

A copy of the device states is send to the script before execution and the values in that copy will not change during execution of the script.
Please share the script so we can help troubleshooting.

Very simple script.

When smoke detected, lights should turn on.
When detector has been reset, the lights are turned off manually.

Code: Select all

commandArray = {}

if otherdevices['Detector1']=="On" or otherdevices['Detector2']=="On" 
then 

    if otherdevices['Light1']=="Off" then
    commandArray[#commandArray+1]={['Light1']="On"}
    end
    
    if otherdevices['Light2']=="Off" then
    commandArray[#commandArray+1]={['Light2']="On"}
    end

print("Smoke")
end
return commandArray

Below test Lua will act on active smoke detectors and will reset the active ones after a set amount of seconds.

Code: Select all

commandArray = {}

local detectors = { 'smoke' , 'testSmoke' } -- Name of your detectors
local dzPort = 8080 -- domoticz port
local resetTime = 30 -- in seconds

for idx, detector in ipairs(detectors) do
    if otherdevices[detector] == "On" then

        local resetURL = 'http://127.0.0.1:' .. dzPort ..'/json.htm?type=command&param=resetsecuritystatus&idx=' .. otherdevices_idx[detector] .. '&switchcmd=Normal'
        -- requires Local Networks (no username/password): to be set to 127.0.0.*;::1

        commandArray[#commandArray + 1] = { ['Alarm licht'] = "On" }
        commandArray[#commandArray + 1] = { OpenURL = resetURL .. ' AFTER ' .. ( resetTime + idx )  }
        commandArray[#commandArray + 1] = { [detector] = 'Off AFTER ' .. ( resetTime + 2 + idx ) }

        print('Smoke detected. Reset ' .. detector .. ' in ' .. (resetTime + 2 + idx ) .. ' seconds')
    else
        print(detector .. ' not active (' .. otherdevices[detector] .. ')')

    end
end

return commandArray

It kept going on forever. No reset was given.

Strange.

I've did a manual reset of the smoke detector but no change there...

I double checked this on my installation (2021.1 build 13249) and the script works as expected.
What is the last seen time on the smoke detector before, during and after an execution cycle? (you may have to [ctrl] r to refresh the switch tab page)

Did you check this?

Yes this is always configured on my setup.
I use domoticz for years but this strange issue I cannot explain.

When activating the smoke detector I checked the status of the device with json just to be sure:
http://ip:port/json.htm?type=devices&rid=idx --> "Status" : "On"

When deactivating/resetting
http://ip:port/json.htm?type=devices&rid=idx --> "Status" : "Off"

Everything seems turned "Off", only the scripted says it's "On"

Tried everything...
Very strange

maybe I see something that is different from my setup and could explain why it does not work for you?

Let's blame it on the 433MHz smoke detectors. :lol:
I'll just restart domoticz when they were activated.
No problem.

Thanks for helping me!

Which brand are the detectors?
I am considering buying four KAKU detectors, but before I do that want to make sure they work properly with Domoticz!

Thanks. I looked at the description, and it looks like a good deal. I read that you get four detectors for 23 or 24 Euro?

Watch out for extra taxes and transport fees when buying something from outside Europe! New rules being implemented from 1st of July.

Yes, I know. But the product description at AliExpress now states "VAT included", so I assume this makes it safe to order without additional cost, right?

Indeed, works perfectly.
No additional costs.

For me the new rules are better.
You can now buy to 150€ without hidden costs.
Ordered several things and they all arrived.
