hi,
I created a dummy devic to manage the barometer pressure supplied by visual crossing.
why a got this? however the pressure appears in the device but not in the widget nor the icon.

How do you feed the data to the dummy barometer and what are the nvalue & svalue you supply?

the nvalue and svalue are coming from a script.
Code: Select all
json = (loadfile "/home/kan/domoticz/scripts/lua/JSON.lua")() -- For Linux
commandArray = {}
local config=assert(io.popen("curl -s 'http://127.0.0.1:8080/json.htm?type=command¶m=getdevices&rid=1306'"))
local blocjson = config:read('*all')
config:close()
local jsonValeur = json:decode(blocjson)
Baro = jsonValeur.result[1].Barometer
commandArray ['UpdateDevice']= '1511|0|'..Baro
return commandArray
the device 1306 is a THB of viSual crossing wihich supply Temp, Hygrometry and Barometer.
the pressure is extracted correctly by the script but the display of the widget is not completed.

This is what is expected for nValue & sValue:
https://wiki.domoticz.com/Domoticz_API/ ... #Barometer
So maybe it helps when you change the sValue to:
BAR;BAR_FOR
Just as a test you could fix the forcast to 0=stable:
Code: Select all
commandArray ['UpdateDevice']= '1511|0|'..Baro..";0"

Excellent the right syntax that works for me is what you propose but with simple strokes
Code: Select all
commandArray ['UpdateDevice']= '1511|0|'..Baro..';0'
i had seen the svalue needs 2 values like you say but i ignored the right syntax
Many thanks
for our pleasure

Perhaps a stupid remark from me but as you use Visual Crossing data to have weather data in Domoticz like me: I have a Barometer automatically created by Domoticz based on the temp/hun/baro data from visual Crossing in the weather tab. Did you not have that?
I do not need to put barometer values in a separate dummy device. It is already there....
