Let's Control It

As far as I can see in this block, you are setting timer 1 twice!
Can you show the rules?

manjh

this may or may not work, but I think that once you have things running, you will think of ways to make this setup a little "smarter". In your first post you mention collecting the temperatures and averaging them. Is it really that simple? I can already think of a few extra requirements.....

@manjh, Many thanks for the links. It's given me some ideas already for future projects. I had not previously discovered the Nodo forum, there is a wealth of interesting stuff there, thank you! It's a challenge for my extremely small knowledge of Dutch, but fortunately there is always Google Transl...

Hello manjh, You mentioned that you had constructed a radiator valve with remote control, based on a Honeywell valve. I'd be very interested to know more if you would like to share.... ;) Best wishes Andrew It was a long time ago... I remember it was based on a "smart" Honeywell valve. Bu...

Done.

I just tried this approach: in the system-boot section added a timerset for 5 seconds. Then when the timer expires, switched on the two relays that I want switched on. After this everything works as it should! :) It could mean that the I2C initializing is done after the execution of the system-boot ...

manjh

Since it is the two I2C pins it might be that these are still being active as such right at boot. (Just my wild guess, I haven't studied the code.) Ah, that could make sense. During the boot process the I2C is activated (or in this case: deactivated). If that happens after the execution of the &quo...

Did you try : on Toggle2=1 do if [relais2#state]=1 Event TurnOff2 else Event TurnOn2 endif endon No, I did not try that. But I don't see the point: all rules work just fine. The only problem is when I switch a relay on after boot. It then goes into a strange state, which can only be corrected by an...

Can you try like this: on System#Boot do Event TurnOff1 Event TurnOff2 Event TurnOff3 Event TurnOff4 Event Toggle2 Event Toggle3 endon I can imagine your toggle events get confused when you set channels manually On at boot so above should work properly I tried this approach, does not make any diffe...

I'm missing some toggle rules like this one: On Button2#State do If [Relais2#State]=1 gpio,5,0 Else gpio,5,1 EndIf EndOn I did not think they are relevant.At bootup I only use on and off.... that puts the two 'on" relays in a very strange state. :?: At bootup you put the relay to the on state,...

Screenshots of the button devices?

Done.

manjh

Since you didn't mention stuff like this it is hard to help. But you could add a delay before setting the GPIO state. Right on boot might be a tad too fast? I will try that. But it is still very strange, since the actions are actually performed OK but the state of the two relays that are switched o...

Please study this information. https://www.letscontrolit.com/wiki/index.php/Configuration Can you be more specific as to which part of this overview contains a lead to my problem? The Sonoff 4CH uses GPIO 12, 5, 4 and 15 for the relays. I realize 4 and 5 are normally used for SDA/SCL, but I removed...

I've set up a Sonoff 4CH with ESP Easy and am now fine tuning the rules. Besides simple "on" and "off", I've also created rules for the buttons to toggle the relay. Works fine. But I have also set two of the relays to be switched on after reboot. It works, the two relays are acti...

manjh

I have several "single channel" Sonof switches, and two 4CH units. All are working perfectly with ESPEasy, but you have to be careful on how you do it. first, make sure you use a 3.3V FTDI, with the right drivers. Sometimes the FTDI uses "fake" chips and you need to explicitely i...

manjh

I just received a fresh Sonoff 4CH this week, and tried to flash it. Before doing that I checked with the Sonoff app and found the unit in good working condition. Then I tried to flash it with the "Captain-Slow" R148 bin file with the NodeMCU programmer. It appeared to load OK, but after t...

manjh

I have a Sonoff device that has been working OK for a long time, and now suddenly fails. It cannot be reached via its designated IP address. When I check Wifi, I can see that it offers the access point, as if it has just been flashed. It comes up as ESP_21, which makes sense since I assigned it to u...

Shardan wrote: ↑27 May 2017, 00:17 Did you set DIO mode for flashing?

Otherwise your 4ch might be faulty.

Where in the Arduino IDE can I set DIO mode?

manjh

I've used these ftdi units for several other flashes, without any problem. Most recently I flashed 4 Sonoff single channel units, and they work just fine. So I am guessing I must have the "real" chips...

FYI: I have two different FTDI converters, tried both.

manjh

I used a pre-compiled bin file, especially for the Sonoff 4CH. But just to make sure, I installed the Arduino environment, downloaded the latest 2.0+ source, installed the libs in the right place, and downloaded the ESP board info set. Then selected the right com port and board (ESP8285), and then r...

I need a little push in the right direction. This morning I flashed brandnew Sonoff 4CH with an ESP Easy bin that I found (I currently don't have the compile environment setup, so prefer a pre-compiled set). Attached an FTDI device (no TX/RX crossing, as advised), and attached to a USB port. Flashin...

Found it. Turns out I copied the sendtohttp statement from a rules example somewhere, and it contained an error. I had already wondered about the extra "m" in "paramm". I now tried this: sendtohttp,10.0.0.199,8080,/json.htm?param=switchlight&type=command&idx=1687&swit...

manjh

I've been trying to include a SendToHTTP statement in a rule, but somehow Domoticz does not get the command. Have tried everything, and am now slowly going mad... I'm sure this is one of these "of course" mistakes, most likely something stupid, but I don't see it. Can someone check this st...

manjh

OK... which is still WIP, right? Is it stable enough for my regular ESP nodes, or should I stay away for now? I've used if for all my nodes with no real issues. But if you have really "life dependent" systems running I would try it out on a lab node first. (I'm on the 2.0.0-dev7 version)....

No change. Still need to logon and then get the main screen, then tried again and same response. No download.
This node is on build 147.

manjh

I know it is not what you're asking for (and I have personally opened up the idea of integrating the rules in to the settings file here ). BUT, as a workaround I use these URLs to automatically download my backups from my nodes: <espeasyip>/filelist/config.dat <espeasyip>/filelist/rules1.txt <espea...

manjh

I understand both replies, but it does not bring us to a fully secure backup situation. Currently the function is called "Save settings", and it is not immediately clear that this does not include the rules. I understand how simple it is to copy this as text file, and I will do that for no...

manjh

Perhaps this was discussed elsewhere, but I cannot find a post about it.
When I make a backup of the settings of an ESP units, it looks like it does not include the rules!
Is this "as designed"?

Thanks for the advice guys :) Looks like I'll be buying an Arduino mega and RFlink and connecting it to my windows server 2012 box If memory serves me ok, I think you can use an RFLink without the Mega.

Over time I have repeatedly struggled trying to reset an ESP unit. When the unit is factory new, there is no problem. But once it has been flashed and something is wrong it becomes difficult.

Kun je in de code van het "blinds" device niet het laatst gegeven commando opzoeken, en dat nogmaals sturen? Dan zou je een heel eenvoudige implementatie van de stop-kop hebben!

manjh

Bij de KAKU schakelaars is een "stop" gewoon herhalen van het laatstgegeven commando.
Dus als je het rolluik omlaag laat bewegen, dan is nogmaals "omlaag" gewoon de stop.

manjh

Hmmm... weet niet hoe het komt, maar het probleem heeft zichzelf opgelost... ik kan nu alles bedienen met type "blinds". Ben ook even aan het spelen geweest met de Venetian Blinds (vanwege die stopknop), maar afhankelijk van US of EU type, werkt de stop alleen goed bij omhoog of bij omlaag...

Ik ben de laatste dagen aan het vechten met mijn SUN650 devices. Ik had ze als "blinds" in gebruik in Domoticz, maar dat werkt niet meer. Heb van alles geprobeerd, uiteindelijk gewoon start/stop als device type gekozen. Het gekke is dat de signalen C1 en C3 goed werken, maar C2 vertikt het...

Apologies. After upgrading RFLink I failed to do a system restart... RFLink was not accessible for anything.
So I re-booted, and tested the Quigg units again: works just fine..... problem solved!

By the way: my compliments for the extremely quick responses to my post!
