Regarding %c_m2hcm%

[chromo23]

Right now the conversion converts 0 and 1440 to 00:00 which makes it difficult for me to use it in rules with my time slider:

a simple rule like that is not working when something is supposed to be on until 24h:

Code: Select all

On Clock#Time=All,**:** Do
    If %eventvalue2%>=%c_m2hcm%(any minute) and %eventvalue2%<=%c_m2hcm%(1440)
    	do something
   Else
       do something else
   Endif
Endon

In my opinion 0 minutes is not equal 1440 minutes and therefore the conversion should convert 1440 to 24:00
What do you think @tonhuisman....

Edit: on the other hand i understand, using 00:00 makes sense for a multiple of 1440..... hmmmmm maybe it shouldn’t be changed
Edit2: Question also could be: How can the code be changed to make it work with every setting? I am stumped right now...

Don't understand this question...?

I am sorry.. i´m very good in writing before thinking
I found a workaround...just imagine you haven’t seen the last post. (i´ll delete it anyway)

Code: Select all

    If %eventvalue2%>=%c_m2hcm%(any minute) and %eventvalue2%<=%c_m2hcm%(1440)

That second condition, right side of 'and' will always be true.

For checking the current # of minutes there is %syssec_d%/60

Oh man... (imagine yourself a huge facepalm emoji here)... good that i asked! Of course, that’s a brilliant idea, thank you. There are so many possibilities in ESPeasy...
