lua to dzvents convert

Hello, I have a script that doesn't work anymore. To be honest, I don't really plan on programming either. It just doesn't trigger anymore since August 25th. Could someone see if this script can also be converted to dzvents and how this code works again?
Code: Select all
t1 = os.time()
s = otherdevices_lastupdate['Ventilator']
year = string.sub(s, 1, 4)
month = string.sub(s, 6, 7)
day = string.sub(s, 9, 10)
hour = string.sub(s, 12, 13)
minutes = string.sub(s, 15, 16)
seconds = string.sub(s, 18, 19)
commandArray = {}
t2 = os.time{year=year, month=month, day=day, hour=hour, min=minutes, sec=seconds}
difference = (os.difftime (t1, t2))
if devicechanged['Werkstatt_Humidity'] ~= nil then
print("luftfeuchtigkeit in Werkstatt ist: " .. devicechanged['Werkstatt_Humidity'] .. " %" .. " - Ventilator Temp. ist: " .. otherdevices['Ventilator'] .. " °C")
if (devicechanged['Werkstatt_Humidity'] >= 75) then
if (otherdevices['Ventilator'] == 'Off' and difference > 3600) then
print("Luftfeuchtigkeit in Werkstatt ist über 80%, schalte Ventilator ein. ")
commandArray['Ventilator']='On FOR 10'
end
end
end
return commandArray

How do you know the script is not triggered?
Did you test with a print statement before the if?
What is the exact name of the script?

Assuming that your Ventilator has a temp sensor, and you want to test the humidity every hour (3600 secs), you could try this script (Not tested!)
Code: Select all
local scriptVar = 'Werkstatt Hum'
return {
on = {
devices = {},
timer = {'every hour', -- check every hour
},
},
logging = {
level = domoticz.LOG_DEBUG,
marker = scriptVar
},
execute = function(dz, item)
local fantime = 10 -- duration in minutes that the fan is on
local fan = dz.devices('Ventilator')
local hum = dz.devices('Werkstatt_Humidity').humidity
print(scriptVar..": Momentane Luftfeuchtigkeit in Werkstatt ist: " .. hum .. " %" .. " - Ventilator Temp. ist: " .. fan.temp .. " °C")
if hum >= 75 and
fan.state == 'Off'
then
print('Ventilator eingeschaltet fuer '..fantime..' minuten')
fan.switchOn().forMin(fantime)
else
print(scriptVar..' Humidity = '..hum..' % '..' fan switch is '..fan.state)
end
end
}

Hello, thanks for the reply. My fan is a switch with no humidity meter. I take the moisture from a BME280. Since my workshop has no heating, I wanted to achieve circulating air, which has worked so far. The name of the switch is "Ventilator" and the name of the BME280 is "Workshop_Humidity".
I get the status message: 2022-10-28 18:23:45.823 Status: LUA: luftfeuchtigkeit in Werkstatt ist: 85.0 % - Ventilator Temp. ist: 17.4 °C
I have already tried different values when the fan should be switched on but so far it has not worked. It's funny that it worked earlier and I don't get an error message either.
As soon as the humidity was reached, I got a message that the fan was switched on in the log

Thanks for the feedback. I will try it and report
An error message appears.
The name fan actually appears twice. Once as a switch and once as a 1-Wire Temp sensor.
Code: Select all
2022-10-28 18:49:00.484 Error: dzVents: Error: (3.1.8) Werkstatt Hum: Multiple items found for Ventilator (device). Please make sure your names are unique or use ids instead.

Correct, that is because you use the device labelled 'Ventilator' both as a switch and as a temperature sensor in your script, which should not be done.
Besides, why do you need a temperature reading when you only check the humidity?
Here's the corrected script:
Code: Select all
local scriptVar = 'Werkstatt Hum'
return {
on = {
devices = {},
timer = {'every hour', -- check every hour
},
},
logging = {
level = domoticz.LOG_DEBUG,
marker = scriptVar
},
execute = function(dz, item)
local fantime = 10 -- duration in minutes that the fan is on
local fan = dz.devices('Ventilator')
local hum = dz.devices('Werkstatt_Humidity').humidity
print(scriptVar..": Momentane Luftfeuchtigkeit in Werkstatt ist: " .. hum .. " %")
if hum >= 75 and
fan.state == 'Off'
then
print('Ventilator eingeschaltet fuer '..fantime..' minuten')
fan.switchOn().forMin(fantime)
else
print(scriptVar..' Humidity = '..hum..' % '..' and fan switch is '..fan.state)
end
end
}

you're right. the temperature measurement was actually a gimmick. your script works. Many Thanks

@ilkaskim Gern geschehen. Glad I could help.
