Thanks @Sankotronic, Thats working for me too. greets, Remi

Hi All, Does someone perhaps know how to check the status of a Fibaro rollershutter using LUA? I want to know if a rollershutter is up or down and use that as a condition in a scene. I tried fibaro:getValue(92, "value") but that seem to result in "0" always. greets, Remi

Wow that did the trick indeed! Thank you very much, i would never have thought of that.

Hi @Sankotronic, Mmm, you could be on the right track with that. I've been tweaking the scene quite a bit lately, and the original scene had my global variable included in the header. Let me try a restart and see.

Until today i was convinced scene's are triggered by devices or variables i put in the upper section in the LUA script. I have a scene where i put in some actions when my wife leaves the house. If her variable change the scene should run. Her variable is "Ilse" and can be "Away" or "Home". But i noticed the scene also runs when my variable "Remi" change status Home or Away. The only variable in the upper section is her's and not mine, so i dont understand why the scene is running when my variable change? The following variable's are used in the script: Ilse (Which can be Home or Away Remi (Which van be Home or Away) Rollershuttercount (Which can be 0 or 1 and is used as a flag to limit opening automatitaclly the rollershutter to one's a day, and is reset during the night by a "Maintance scene") --[[ %% properties %% weather %% events %% globals Ilse --]] local date = os.date(); local ct=os.date("%H:%M",os.time()) -- debugging function in color function logbug(color, message) for line in message:gmatch("[^\010\013]+") do local txt = line:gsub("([\038\060\062])", function(c) return "&#"..string.byte(c)..";" end) fibaro:debug(('<span style="color:%s">%s</span>'):format(color,txt)) end end if fibaro:getGlobalValue("Ilse")=="Away" and fibaro:getGlobalValue("Remi")=="Away" and fibaro:getGlobalValue("Rollershuttercount")=="0" and (ct>="07:00" and ct<"14:00") then fibaro:debug(date); fibaro:call(92, "open") fibaro:setGlobal("Rollershuttercount","1") setTimeout(function() fibaro:call(95, "turnOff") --Main lamp fibaro:call(98, "turnOff") --Spot lamp Remi fibaro:call(101, "turnOff") --Spot lamp Ilse fibaro:call(104, "turnOff") -- Walli WCD end, 22000) logbug("green", "Rollershutter open and lights off.") else if fibaro:getGlobalValue("Ilse") == "Away" then fibaro:debug(date); fibaro:call(95, "turnOff") --Main lamp fibaro:call(98, "turnOff") --Spot lamp Remi fibaro:call(101, "turnOff") --Spot lamp Ilse fibaro:call(104, "turnOff") -- Walli WCD logbug("green", "Lights off") end end The reason why my variable is in the scene is, because the rollershutter is of our bedroom. When i have a day off i like to sleep a bit longer and dont want to wake up because the rollershutter goes up automatically when she leaves the house.

@Jumpson , Did you check the manual already? https://manuals.fibaro.com/intercom/

Thank you for your reply. At the moment i am at work. I will try it out later today when i come home.

I cant acces my HC2 from the portal either. Not sure if its country related, but i'm from the Netherlands.

Hi @Sankotronic, Its working great now! Thanks again

Thank you so much @Sankotronic , Going to try it out and will let you know the result tomorrow If this works i am very happy since i am not an advanced programmer (Far from...) and this makes it so much more readable for me.

Hello guys, I need some help with a script i made, hopefully you can point me in the right direction. I made a script which should open the rollershutter of the bedroom of my son when he leave home. But it doesnt seem to work well. I was wondering if this is because of the construction i made to descide if a specific time is within a time range? I use three conditions to descide the rollershutter should open or not. a Home/Away variable A variable which can be 0 or 1 to assure the rollershutter goes open only ones a day automaticaly. If the variable is 1 it should skip the action (this variable is reset to 0 at night) A time range of 07.00 - 13.00h. If my son leave the house within that time range the rollershutter should open. --[[ %% properties %% weather %% events %% globals Yannick --]] local date = os.date(); local currentDate = os.date("*t"); if ( ( fibaro:getGlobalValue("Yannick") == "Away" ) and tonumber(fibaro:getGlobalValue("Shuttercount_Y") == 0 ) and (tonumber(os.date("%H%M")) >= tonumber(string.format("%02d%02d", "07", "00")) or (tonumber(os.date("%H%M")) < tonumber(string.format("%02d%02d", "13", "00"))))) then fibaro:call(120, "open"); -- Rollershutter fibaro:setGlobal("Shuttercount_Y", "1"); end Thanks you in advance, Remi

That are indeed good use cases and things what i always was wondering too. The last time a sensor reported a value. Or even with a global variable! I thought that wasnt possible. Great stuff to learn For sure going to give it a try to use this. Thanks!

Thanks @Sankotronic I learn alot today I gues i can use UNIX format the same way if i want to compare moments in time with > or <= etc...? In my specific use case, since the variable 'sunriseHour' is already in normal time format it seems a extra step to convert it to UNIX first. When do UNIX format benefit over normal time notation? In a more complex scene?

Thanks @Sankotronic glad to see normal time notation can work too. Altho i understand the conversion to seconds too, normal time notation is a bit more noob friendly to me ?

Thanks, i will have a look at that later. But to be honest that look quite overwhelming ?
