rule not triggering for distance SR04 (solved)

[riker1]

Hi

having a distance sensor attached

log is saying:

0843707 : EVENT: Dist_139#Dist_V=152.64
10844706 : SR04 : Distance: 151.78
10844707 : EVENT: Dist_139#Dist_V=151.78


device is defined: with value, also tried state. but as well no trigger

rule for event:
on Dist_139#Dist_V<100.00 do
GPIO,14,1
endon

is not triggering?

what am I doing wrong?

Thanks T

[riker1]

no hints?

Your rule test on values < 100 but the values in the log are all > 100 so it is correct the rule is not being executed.

[riker1]

thanks for checking,

of course I have values lower than 100

still rule not triggered.

any way to check if a rule is tiggered/passed? - debugging ?

rule and execution should show up in log, right?

like
: EVENT: Dist_139#Dist_V=6.03
4665343 : SR04 : Distance: 7.76
4665344 : EVENT: Dist_139#Dist_V=7.76
4666343 : SR04 : Distance: 7.34
4666344 : EVENT: Dist_139#Dist_V=7.34
4667342 : SR04 : Distance: 7.64
4667344 : EVENT: Dist_139#Dist_V=7.64
4668342 : SR04 : Distance: 7.66
4668344 : EVENT: Dist_139#Dist_V=7.66
4669342 : SR04 : Distance: 7.64
4669344 : EVENT: Dist_139#Dist_V=7.64
4670342 : SR04 : Distance: 7.50
4670344 : EVENT: Dist_139#Dist_V=7.50
4671342 : SR04 : Distance: 8.24
4671344 : EVENT: Dist_139#Dist_V=8.24

What if you leave out the condition in the on statement?
And what firmware do you use?
Rules are not easily tested indeed, you might change the loglevel to see if it shows more info.

Hi

do you mean :

on Dist_139#Dist_V do
GPIO,16,0
endon




led 16 not triggered.
log does not say anything about GPIO command


did set loglevel to debug, but does not show me a hint.


using: mega-20180409

[riker1]

did switch on debug serial and see more

but only

RuleDebug: 100: dist_139#dist_v<100.00 do
RuleDebug: 101: gpio,16,0

but does not show execution of gpio command.

Hi

also tried now using state with threshold.
values are correct, but rule still not executed....

is it maybe a problem upper lower letters?

[riker1]

solved it.

looks like it was caused by some blanks in the ruleset.!!!!!

Thanks for helping

Good!
