ESPEasy R120 Rules - [need help]

[cracky]

Hello, guys!

I need some help, I got 1 ESP8266-01 with EspEasy R120 and I need to configure some rules with multiple "if-then" condition.

I have the following:
1 x ESP8266-01
2 x relays
1 x touch button

What I need:

- when I press once the touch button, turn relay 1 ON
- when I press second time, turn relay 2 ON
and the third time -> turn off both

What I got now with the rules bellow..
When I press touch button, first relay start on, then relay 2, and after that are both off -> and the cycle repeats until I press again the touch button.

Code: Select all

on Touch#Switch do
if [Touch#Switch]=1.00
gpio,1,1
event checkBec1
endif
endon

on checkBec1 do
if [Touch#Switch]=1.00
if [bec1#Switch]=1.00
gpio,2,1
event checkBec2
endif
endon

on checkBec2 do
if [Touch#Switch]=1.00
if [bec2#switch]=1.00
gpio,1,0
gpio,2,0
endif
endon

Help please, I have 0 experience with this coding type.
Thank you in advance!

Anyone?:)

Have you studied the wiki? Since the syntax is not correct I believe you haven't. Please read it and then come here if you still need help.

The (rules) tutorial section as well as the guide for Sonoff Touch will give you the answers.

Do not misunderstand me, this team has done a great job.
But what I am missing for example is simple things like is the basic syntax rules, e.g. case-sensitive, indentation, line-continuation, keywords.

[grovkillen]

Regarding line indent, case-sensitive are no problem, but yes - it is not stated in the wiki. Regarding the rule asked for here:

Code: Select all

 on touch#switch do
    if [count#state]>1
      TaskValueSet,4,1,0
    else
      TaskValueSet,4,1,[count#state]+1
    endif
 endon
 
   on count#state=0 do
    gpio,1,0
    gpio,2,0
  endon
 
  on count#state=1 do
    gpio,1,1
  endon

  on count#state=2 do
    gpio,2,1
  endon

This uses a dummy device called "count" (task number 4) and dump the current state to value number 1 "state".

Hello, guys!

I really appreciate your help, thank you for that, especially grovkillen.
I tried the script you provided with dummy device and after some more settings it works

Happy to have helped. Thanks for the update!

Hello!

I still have a question, maybe you know how to do it.
In this case if I turn off the light from the button and then I want to start it from the openhab, it runs the rule where it counts the value of the dummy device and does not work.
So I think a way is to set up the dummy device than to set the switch. Is it possible to set a value on dummy device using MQTT

Thank you!

No not directly... But you can send an event value. This event value can be written into a dummy device. So there is a workaround .

I love those capacitive touch buttons got a bag full of them and they work great behind plastic inside of cases or plates!

DrJeff & toffel969- thank you!

Short story: I made it work!


Long stroy:

Let me tell you what the structure of the project is and why I needed these rules

I use a relay and touch button, ordered by esp8266 01 and I can:
- turn on and off the room light (2 channels) from the touch button (on the wall)
- turn on and off the room light from OpenHab via MQTT
- turn on and off the room light from Amazon Echo (Alexa) via OpenHab via MQTT

The problem was: If I turn off the light from the button and then I want to start it from the openhab, it runs the rule where it counts the value of the dummy device and does not work.
How I solved it, by adding a rule for count state and a wrong value for dummy device, to count it 0 after system boot

Code: Select all

on System#Boot do
  TaskValueSet 4,1,10 // default value at boot 
endon

on System#Boot do 
gpio,0,0
endon

on System#Boot do 
gpio,2,0 
endon

 on Touch#value do
    if [count#state]>1
      TaskValueSet,4,1,0
    else
      TaskValueSet,4,1,[count#state]+1
    endif
 endon

 on Touch#value do
    if [count#state]=0 do
    gpio,0,0
    gpio,2,0
  endon

 on Touch#value do
    if [count#state]=1 do
    gpio,0,1
  endon

 on Touch#value do
    if [count#state]=2 do
    gpio,2,1
  endon

Thank you guys!
