ESP Easy 0.96" OLED set contrast with a button on NodeMCU

[Mav63]

Hello everybody,
I run current ESP Easy on a NodeMCU (LoLin V3) with an DHT22 and a 0,96 OLED connected. Everything works fine so far.
I am able to set the display contrast through the web interface.
Now it would be great, if I am able to connect a switch which goes through the states (i.e. "On/hight contr."; "On/medium contr."; "On/low contr."; "Off").
Since I am a newbie I need to ask if such is possible at all and, if yes how to do it.

Thanks for all help

Yes, it is possible at all, pretty easy using the rules functionality of espeasy.
Sorry, at this daytime I'm too tired to post a detailed example using a button, just a short example how to set the contrast depending on daytime:

Code: Select all

On Clock#Time=All,21:00 do
  OLEDFRAMEDCMD,low
endon
On Clock#Time=All,19:00 do
  OLEDFRAMEDCMD,medium
endon
On Clock#Time=All,08:00 do
  OLEDFRAMEDCMD,medium
endon
On Clock#Time=All,9:30 do
  OLEDFRAMEDCMD,high
endon

Probably it might help to have a look at https://www.letscontrolit.com/wiki/inde ... rial_Rules

Before being able to use the rules you have to enable it in Tools/Advanced

Thank you so much!
It is working!!
So now I am facing next challenge:
Am I able to find the current setting on contrast?
This is because I like to use the push button to toggle between the states (on-high; on-med; on-low; off).
Therefore I need to know the current state to choose the one I like to fire.

Thanks again!

Solved with a Dummy device...
But need to press push button sometimes multiple time to get effect.
My rules:

Code: Select all

On Button#Switch=toggle do
  IF [Dummy#Wert1]=1
    OLEDFRAMEDCMD,medium
    TaskValueSet 4,1,2
  ELSE
    IF [Dummy#Wert1]=2
      OLEDFRAMEDCMD,high
      TaskValueSet 4,1,3
    ELSE
      OLEDFRAMEDCMD,low
      TaskValueSet 4,1,1
    ENDIF
  ENDIF
endon

I do not evaluate Value of 3 because having Dummy set to 1 in all other cases than 1 or 2.

The interval of Dummy device is set to 1 sec. and of OLED device to 5 sec. which lowers the amount of pressing push button in short time to get result.

Any idea to get a (not) each click get a result issue?

Thanks!
