This code seems to work, hopefully it'll be reliable, I simply call it 3 times :) void Plugin_121_Controller_Update(byte TaskIndex, byte BaseVarIndex, int IDX, byte SensorType) { if (Settings.Protocol && IDX > 0) { LoadTaskSettings(TaskIndex); byte ProtocolIndex = getProtocolIndex(Settings.P...

Bump

Just had a weird situ whereby I was trying to switch on a relay via domoticz from my work (vpn via xpenology box).. It repeatedly caused the esp to reboot each time. I then tried to access another esp via the http interface and that too rebooted. A third has gone offline and no ping response - will ...

Hello :) Ah yes but I have 3 values to send to 3 different devices - NOT just one device you see.. All from ONE Task... That is why I am using 3 devices in domoticz: A switch to turn heating on/off. Another switch just to keep track of when boiler is actually lit. (read only in domoticz) A thermosta...

cherowley

Thanks moelski :) I've written my own plugin (thermostat+timer) which has 3 user vars I wish to see in domoticz: Set point Heating On Flame Lit These 3 values need to go to (in my case) domoticz, BUT 3 different IDX (3 different virtual devices in domoticz: Virtual Thermostat Virtual Switch Virtual ...

Still struggling with this

Any help out from you C coding gurus?

cherowley

I'm writing a plugin where I need to send values to several different devices on the controller (in my case domoticz). I can't see how to send info except using the event struct which uses the uservars. I want to use my own variables and set device type etc... Currently i've fudged it by taking the ...

What's the syntax for changing a task value in the rules?

These don't seem to work:

[Switch#Switch]=1
[Switch#Switch]=On

Thanks!

cherowley

Hmm,

Still not getting anywhere...

How do you set a device status in rules, for example if i have a switch called Switch with a value name Switch:

[Switch#Switch]=1
[Switch#Switch]=On

doesn't work?

cherowley

Hi! I'm after what I thought would be a simple script but getting nowhere! I'm using a sonoff with a a normal on.off toggle switch (the tricky bit). I want the relay to switch to its opposite state whenever I toggle the hardware switch. BUT I also want to be able to override the relay by sending on/...

cherowley

Yes please!

I'd really like domoticz just to treat the mood buttons as just switches so i can do what i want with them

It means that I can stick it on a wall and control several things in a room individually (WAF lol!)

cherowley

Hi!

So RFlink does detect this but Domoticz still doesn't recognise all the buttons even in teh latest betas...

Any ideas how to get this working in domoticz?

Cheers!

Yep same issues I had/have.

I wrapped the pir wires in foil then grounded the foil and that worked pretty much so then I tried using coax to connect the pir and that also worked.

Ah, hadn't seen that one before

Convenient extra io pin

I've used the tx/rx pins on mine for PIR and dht sensors etc

cherowley

5 pins?

Ooo, please take a picture

Hi Deenoo,

Hmm, that looks correct to me:

Name:
Milight UDP Port: 8899
Red Pin: 15
Green Pin: 13
Blue Pin: 12
White Pin: 14

If you swap say the blue & green wires and set to full green do you get blue?

Seems good in r90

Hi!

Thanks for adding support for this (I'm sure i uploaded my log?!)..

Do I need to add support in Domoticz (my controller of choice

) ?

Hi,

Haven't looked into the raw stuff so are you saying you can send a raw code using a single hex code?

I thought you had to provide an array of mark/space times?

I've now got the plugin seemingly stable - I disabled the system info plugin. I've also used a timer set to 50hz to control the fading and it gives (mostly!) smooth fading.

At the current state of ESPEasy R80 you can only use I2C on the sonoff. GPIO 1&3 can be used for I2C but cannot be used as input or output. So you cannot attach a sensor like DHT11/22. As alternative you can use the forked version of R78, this version has fully functioning GPIO 1/3 (UART is swa...

I think he meant that having a database of all the ir codes in the firmware would be impossible. Also I think they are talking about it sending which is not in easyesp. Or at least it wasn't until I just gave it a bash

It is a bit troublesome that you have to do all the settings from start again after a OTA update. Choose network on 192.168.4.1 and so on. Or you must compile with SSID and PassPhrase into the sourcecode. I'm glad I'm not the only one with the frustration that OTA is not very useable with 1meg hard...

I think for me it would be best as if they just were sent as individual on switches.

That way they could be used for any purpose - linking to scenes, groups or individual devices as per whatever the user needs
