Hi,
Need some help with a programming issue.
I have a hallway light wich go's On at sunset en Off at 02.00. It's a colored light and it is dimmed to 15%.
What I want if a person is at the frontdoor the hallway light must light up to 70% for 2 minutes.
It is done by a infrared motion sensor. I've tried with the knowledge I have to program this but I don't get it working.
So some help would be appreciated.

Code: Select all

return {
	on = {
		timer = 
		{
		    'between 10 minutes before sunset and 23:30',
		    'between 23:30 and 02:00',
		    'at 02:00',
		                        },
        devices =
        {
            'color',
            'sensor'
            
        },
        
    },

    logging =
    {
        level = domoticz.LOG_ERROR, -- set to domoticz.LOG_INFO when all ok
        marker = 'Lamp gang',
    },

    execute = function(dz, item )

            local master = dz.devices('Kamer- masterswitch') -- virtual switch to trigger a Scene that will switch all lights off
                 if master.active then
                 dz.log('Rest of script will be ignored because master switch is activated and every light should stay off',dz.LOG_INFO )
                 return
            end
            
        local color = dz.devices('Gang- Kleurinstelling gang')
        local sensor = dz.devices('Beweging sensor gang')
       
       
        if dz.time.matchesRule('between 10 minutes before sunset and 23:30') then
           color.setColor(253,244,220,15,0,0,4,0)
            
              
        elseif dz.time.matchesRule('between 23:30 and 02:00') then
            color.setColor(0,255,0, 10, 0, 0, 4, 0)
                 
        elseif dz.time.matchesRule('at 02:00') then
            color.switchOff().checkFirst()
           
        end
       
end
}

Try to change

Code: Select all

devices =
        {
            'color',
            'sensor'
            
        },

to below so it will trigger on sensor changes only

Code: Select all

devices =
        {
            'Beweging sensor gang'
            
        },

And check for sensor.active (doc: active: Boolean. Is true for some common states like ‘On’ or ‘Open’ or ‘Motion’) eg

Code: Select all

 if sensor.active then color.setColor(.....).forMin(2)

Hi,
It's not working, from the Dzvents documentation it said that in case of RGB devices you have to use other command like forAAA()

.../domoticz/scripts/dzVents/generated_scripts/Lampgang.lua:36: attempt to call a nil value (field 'forMin')

Then do something like

Code: Select all

 if sensor.active then 
           color.setColor(70%)
           color.setcolor(15%).afterMin(2)
end

Hi Waltervl,
You can ignore my previeus post. I had an <end> in the programming at the wrong place.
It's working, thanx.
Solution was very easy if you know programming
