long push, short push detection with a button (connected on gpio)

[DeNB3rt]

Hi ESPEasy guy's

A question, did anybody try to distinguish the difference between a long and short push on a button, connected to a gpio on the ESP?

This could be interesting to build one normal on/off switch at the entrance of your house.
When short push on the button > normal on/off lighting in the entrance.
Long push is to disable all lights in your house when leaving.

Anybody?

Hi,

Yes, I got that working by using the rules section.
Let the button start a timer-rule. (where you can specify your long-push time)

Code: Select all

On Switch#Switch1=1.00 do
timerSet,1,2   (where 2 is the long push time in seconds)
endon

On Rules#Timer=1 do
if [Switch#Switch1]=1.00
 gpio,15,1
 else
 gpio,16,1
endif
endon

It can work but it's not really a long press, if you press, release, and then press it again within 2 seconds it will trigger the "long press" and it shoudln't...
I think you shoudl reset the timer if the switch is released in order to make it work properly!

ok, cool, so this is possible. thanks!
Did not have a look yet to the 'rules'.

I think I could add a 'turn off all lights' virtual button in domoticz,
and add a SendToHTTP in the rules? right?

e.g.

Code: Select all

  SendToHTTP 192.168.0.243,8080,/json.htm?type=command&paramm=switchlight&idx=174&switchcmd=On

keep up the good work thx!

You're right. Thanks for the addition.

Hi, i'm using this rules to control 4 lights with 2 pushbuttons.

on s2#S do
TaskValueSet 9,1,[tv#tv]+1
TaskValueSet 9,2,[salon#salon]+1
timerSet,1,1
timerSet,2,2
endon

on s1#S do
TaskValueSet 9,3,[keuken#keuken]+1
TaskValueSet 9,4,[eetplaats#eetplaats]+1
timerSet,3,1
timerSet,4,2
endon

on sw2#S=1 do
TaskValueSet 9,1,[Dummy#switch1]-1
if [salon#salon] > 0
gpio,14,0
pwm,14,0
else
gpio,14,1
endif
endon

on sw1#S=1 do
TaskValueSet 9,3,[Dummy#switch3]-1
if [eetplaats#eetplaats] > 0
gpio,2,0
pwm,2,0
else
gpio,2,1
endif
endon

On Rules#Timer=2 do
TaskValueSet 9,1,0
TaskValueSet 9,2,0
endon

On Rules#Timer=4 do
TaskValueSet 9,3,0
TaskValueSet 9,4,0
endon

On Rules#Timer=1 do
if [Dummy#switch1] = 1
gpio,13,1
else
gpio,13,0
pwm,13,0
endif
endon

On Rules#Timer=3 do
if [Dummy#switch3] = 1
gpio,0,1
else
gpio,0,0
pwm,0,0
endif
endon

hello, i'm making a switchboard with 4 channel mains relay module with 4 buttons. I want when one of the buttons long pressed to turn ON/OFF all 4 relays. anyway I can do this?... I'm kind of new to espeasy so far I managed to get this rules to work 4 channel relay to on/off how can I use one this button to control all channel?

rules

Code: Select all

on button1#button1 do
if [relay1#relay1] =0
GPIO,16,1
else
GPIO,16,0
endif
endon

on button2#button2 do
if [relay2#relay2] =0
GPIO,14,1
else
GPIO,14,0
endif
endon

on button3#button3 do
if [relay3#relay3] =0
GPIO,13,1
else
GPIO,13,0
endif
endon

on button4#button4 do
if [relay4#relay4] =0
GPIO,2,1
else
GPIO,2,0
endif
endon

Someone, Please Help me

thank you

Here is a snippet of working "production" code as example:

Code: Select all

on Button#Button do 
    if [Button#Button]=1
        TimerSet 3,5
        TaskValueSet 2,4,1
        PWM 13,0
    else
        TimerSet 3,0
        TaskValueSet 2,4,0
    endif
endon 

on Rules#Timer=3 do 
    if [State#Reboot]=1
        Reboot 
    endif     
endon 

Button# is configured as normal switch (important!), TaskValueSet stores to dummy device/value State#Reboot.
I use the same gpio in another switch device (configured as pushbutton) for the "normal" switching.

Hi, can you explain how you set the "normal" switch for the short push? What rule do you use?
if I create a new switch with the same gpio the short push rule is activated after the long push too.

thanks!

HI

i wondering how to use this long and short press option on my esp 8266 and easyesp

i have two relays and diffent GPIo's

and one buttom

i like to maka as following


on short press i like to change the state of relay 1 - if is OFF i like change to ON and opposit

on long press i like to change the state of relay 2 - if is OFF i like change to ON and opposit

the best willbe option tongle - but this option is missing on esp


finally wilbe two bottoms in differnt places to make the change on relays - but this wilbe next step..

regards

Use my rule in the wiki and you can press the button as long as you want....

Hi,

Yes, I got that working by using the rules section.
Let the button start a timer-rule. (where you can specify your long-push time)

Code: Select all

On Switch#Switch1=1.00 do
timerSet,1,2   (where 2 is the long push time in seconds)
endon

On Rules#Timer=1 do
if [Switch#Switch1]=1.00
 gpio,15,1
 else
 gpio,16,1
endif
endon
