Can be closed, I am now able to use the search function of the board and found the answer.

Thanks, marstu

Dear all, I have recently updated all my 8266 from mega-20231013 to mega-20231130, and it is working as before. Thanks for all your hard work. But I was wondering if there was a change in the skin? Now it looks like more than a text console with some icons, and the colors are missing. BTW before som...

Better not make these if checks too complicated. N.B. I did edit my post to remove the () in the if statement too. Thank you very much, a much better and smart way to solve my problem. It works very well, and I definitively need to get more familiar with "let". Kind regards and have a nic...

Combining AND and OR without any round braces is probably not going to work as intended: if %sysweekday%>1 and %sysweekday%<7 and ((%systm_hm% > 06:00 and %systm_hm% < 08:00) or (%systm_hm% > 18:00 and %systm_hm% < 22:00)) // Allowed Date Range, Mon=2, Fri=6 This looked the most logical expectation...

The first IF in your event handler excludes sat (7) and sun (1), so trying to select either of them in the last ELSEIF in that block is never giving the desired result... Thanks @Ath for the hint...grrrr...you are right: on Clock#Time=All,**:** do LogEntry,"Processing One-Minute Clock Event: T...

I just checked your rules in Notepad++ with the ESPEasy rules color highlighter and the ifs and elses to seem to match. See: https://github.com/letscontrolit/ESPEasy/tree/mega/misc/Notepad%2B%2B Also your observation seems to match with the rules. I just deleted the rest of the lines, so you can se...

Not looked through all the code, but this one looks weird: With weekdays ranging 1...7, this check is always true. Hi TD-er, you are totally right, I changed the code slightly and now at least it is working from Mon to Fri, but not on Sat and Sun: on Clock#Time=All,**:** do LogEntry,"Processin...

Dear all, long time no see, because of being happy until a few days. since the last weekend I though about having the OLEDs of my ESPs only active for a few hours per day, with different time ranges at the weekend and during the week. I tried a lot, but didn't find a solution, I hope to get somethin...

Welcome, and enjoy your new hobby.

marstu

Hello and welcome from my side as well.

I would support Ath's request, because I am into ESP8266, ESPEasy, and Domoticz as well.

marstu

Thanks for this information, again I learnt something new.

marstu

I noticed that only FHEM versions with OTA are available (the ESP_Easy_mega_20210802_minimal_core_274_ESP8285_1M_OTA_FHEM_HA.bin) Is there any chance that the Domoticz version will be released? Only for curiosity, what is the speciality of this version and what can the Domoticz version do? marstu

marstu

Display should be off during 19:00 and 8:00 from Monday to Friday, and completely in the weekend. Where is the mistake? Do I need another trigger? I'm a bit unsure what you want (OLED off during daytime or off during night time). From your code I think you want the display only on during the daytim...

marstu

Hi all, It's again me, with a new question. I try to switch my small OLED display via the following rule: on %sysweekday%>0 and %sysweekday%<6 do If %systm_hm% < 19:00 and %systm_hm% > 08:00 OledFramedCmd,display,on else OledFramedCmd,display,off endif endon But obviously it is not working. Display ...

The link is not showing the download links of the bin files. If you want to OTA flash them, you can browse them here: https://td-er.nl/ESPEasy/static/ Hi TD-er, I am happy to test one of these builds as well, because one of my ESP 8266 is also having issues with connecting to WLAN. Did you include ...

Code: Select all

on Clock#Time=All,23:59 do //will run once a day at noon
 TaskValueSet 6,1,0
endon
On System#Boot do 
  TaskValueSet 6,1,[Reb_Count#Reboots]+1 //will this survive a reboot?
endon

Tested and it is working as expected, thanks for the helpful hint.

marstu

Variables do not survive a reboot, but task variables do. So you could store something in a dummy task and try to read it at boot. Ok, again not thought out correctly. Next try is something like that: on Clock#Time=All,23:59 do //will run once a day at noon TaskValueSet 6,1,0 endon On System#Boot d...

Hi all, I have a new idea, and would like to track the reboots of my ESPs on a daily basis (clear variable right before midnight) in a dummy device due to this rule, which is working very well: on System#Boot do timerSet,1,60 // Set timer 1 endon on WiFi#Disconnected do timerSet,1,60 // Set timer 1 ...

I already ticked sending with highest TX power, but will also change to 20.5 dBm.

Ok, will try B/G mode as well.

With these changes WIFI seems to be a little more stable, slower, but stable.

marstu

If the display timer interferes with your Wifi check timer, then one of them should be using another timer, there are 8 available. Now using timer 2: I have opened a new PR #3684 that adds the option to send events on Display On/Off and change of Contrast. I'm thinking if I should add an event on p...

marstu

If the WiFi reception is worse, please increase TX pwr to 20.5 dBm and check sending with highest TX power. I already ticked sending with highest TX power, but will also change to 20.5 dBm. Setting to B/G mode will allow you to actually send with more TX power compared to "n" network. (20...

marstu

I don't know why you would want to reboot if Wifi is away for > 60 seconds? Shouldn't be needed, I think. Because downstairs I have really a bad WIFI connection with the latest MEGA version, that was the reason for this rule, and it is quite helpful. If the display timer interferes with your Wifi c...

Hi Ath, I slightly adapted your code and it seems to work, but need some further testing. on PIR#State=1 do // Most PIR sensor give a high signal when activated AsyncEvent,displayon endon on displayon do if %systm_hm% < 20:00 and %systm_hm% > 06:30 // Only when we are awake OledFramedCmd,display,on ...

Ath wrote: ↑08 Jun 2021, 22:16 This solution is not keeping a state (yet), but I'll update that post later to add that if needed, as currently the display is always turned off after 1 minute, so no need to worry if it is turned off in time.

I'll let you know next week, but I guess this should solve my "problem".

marstu

There are 2 challenges with this: - You can't read the state of the display What a pity. - The OLED should not be kept on for prolonged times, as its content will burn in, most likely within a few months, depending on the brightness level I know, that's the reason why all are already only switched ...

Hi all, I am using the following rule to switch my OLED on and off: on Clock#Time=All,20:00 do //will run once a day oledframedcmd,display,off endon on Clock#Time=All,06:30 do //will run once a day oledframedcmd,display,on endon Which is working perfectly, now I would like to write the status of the...

marstu

Please be aware that if an OLED is turned on for prolonged time, the risk of image-burn-in is quite real. So setting a display time-out, either by the configuration settings on the OLED(Framed) configuration using a button or sensor to wake-up, or by rules (when having more complex time-out require...

What .bin file have you installed on your ESP's? (filename please), then I'll build and attach an updated one here for you to test.

I can wait until the next release. All of my ESPs are running currently on ESP_Easy_mega_20210503_normal_ESP8266_4M1M.

marstu

Well, I did :lol:, and opened PR #3661 to add 4 new system variables: %s_sunrise%, %m_sunrise%, %s_sunset% and %m_sunset%. These new variables lead me to the next question. Would these then "solve" my problem in this rule? On System#Boot do timerSet,1,40 endon on Rules#Timer=1 do TaskValu...

That's not what I'm currently working on :D though I probably could :lol: For the time being I did a parser/converter in rules: on Time#Set do // Called when NTP updates the time logentry,"Sunrise: %sunrise% Sunset: %sunset%" let,20,{substring:0:1:"%sunrise%"}*60 // Assuming her...

marstu

You can't use the time notation for calculations. It isn't automatically converted to an int. Would be a nice feature though. Right now, I can't think of a very simple way to do so, as the %syssec_d% variable does not convert it. That's a pity, then I will look for a solution in Domoticz. One trick...

marstu

Hi all, I am relatively new to ESPs and ESPEASY, but have already 3 ESP8266 incl. some small OLEDs and BMx280 running, which forward their information to Domoticz. This works quite well, with exceptions for one wrt WiFi connection issues since last update. Anyway this is not my topic, I'm recently t...
