Subtracting values of variables in rules

[ulfh2018]

I am trying to subtract to values in a rule, but it looks like I am missing on the syntax. I have set up the following rule:

on BadNede do
TaskValueSet 2,1,%eventvalue%
if [Variables#BadNede]>32
TaskValueSet,2,1,32
endif
TaskValueSet 2,2,[Variables#BadNede - Floor#Bad-Nede]
timerSet,1,5
endon

Everything works as expected, except the line TaskValueSet 2,2,[Variables#BadNede - Floor#Bad-Nede], so there must be a syntax error. Can someone please correct me?

The log from ESPEasy shows the following:

EVENT: BadNede=28.50
310694: ACT : TaskValueSet 2,1,28.50
310705: Command: taskvalueset
310768: ACT : TaskValueSet 2,2,


Best regards

Code: Select all

TaskValueSet 2,2,[Variables#BadNede]-[Floor#Bad-Nede]

Thank you for your reply (Have'nt I seen you on another forum - you are Swedish if I'm not totally wrong)

Tried that. Result in the log file is like this:

504587: EVENT: BadNede=29.50
504609: ACT : TaskValueSet 2,1,29.50
504619: Command: taskvalueset
504679: ACT : TaskValueSet 2,2,29.50 - 25.69

Then do this:

Code: Select all

TaskValueSet 2,2,([Variables#BadNede]-[Floor#Bad-Nede])

I'll be happy to join the group!

Still not working.

Have checked that there is a legal value of Floor#Bad-Nede and Variables#BadNede, but the log file now shows me the following result:
330822: HTTP: event,BadNede=29.00
330864: EVENT: BadNede=29.00
330884: ACT : TaskValueSet 2,1,29.00
330894: Command: taskvalueset
330954: ACT : TaskValueSet 2,2,(29.00-25.69)

It's a hard life
