questions about rules

Hello all and sorry for this noob question.

I have an ADS1115 which works great.

i have set the interval in the plugin to 600 seconds.

but in my rule i send this line every 10 seconds for a special event.

Code: Select all

publish,"%sysname%/AmpereMeter/Analog-IN3",[AmpereMeter#Analog-IN3]
i see my variable gets updated every 10 seconds, but always with the old value.
So if i send the value every 10 seconds, but the plugin is set to 600 seconds, will this work ?
So in regular case i want new value every 10 minutes, but when my rule is active i want new value every 10 seconds.

or just simple my publish line is wrong :)

Thank you so much for your help

I suggest you try using the TaskRun command in your rule (insert before the publish). See https://www.letscontrolit.com/wiki/inde ... _Reference.

Your format is different than what I typically use. My rule statement would have looked like this:

Code: Select all

publish %sysname%/AmpereMeter/Analog-IN3,[AmpereMeter#Analog-IN3]
Your method may work the same, but if you continue to have problems then try my format.

thank you so much for your answere,

how exactley should it look like ?

TaskRun,[AmpereMeter#Analog-IN3]
followed by:
publish %sysname%/AmpereMeter/Analog-IN3,[AmpereMeter#Analog-IN3]


I am so sorry, i did never use this so far :(

TaskRun,<task no>

That will make the value get updated.

like this :
TaskRun,<6>

or this :
TaskRun,6

Thank you for your help :)

Have you read the docs? We don't use < and > as delimiters...
