Hi I would like to know the best practises to map a device id (based upon the known 'hometable' and another variable)? For example, see partial scene below. Each device has a specific timeout. The way I did in the main scene doesn't seems to be a best practise since I'm repeating again the device id, gathered from the hometable. Using the name (for example local BuzzerId = (jT.Woongedeelte.Buzzer)) neither (I think). But how should you do it in a way you can link the device id with a timeout value in your configuration setting of a scene so you an use it in a loop. Hope it's clear. Thanks. -- Main scene ---- -- loop through DevicesID's for i, id in ipairs(DevicesIDs) do -- Mapping between ID's and timeout if id == 76 then timeout = TimeOutBuzzer else if id == 91 then timeout = TimeOutFonteinSwitch else if id == 97 then timeout = TimeOutFontein else if id == 120 then timeout = TimeOutStroomBuiten else if id == 138 then timeout = TimeoutAlarmRGB end end end end end -- Check if the device is on, else end if (( tonumber(fibaro:getValue(id, "value")) > 0 )) then log("Device "..fibaro:getName(id).." With Id " ..id.." is active (On)") local tempDeviceState0, deviceLastModification0 = fibaro:get(id, "value"); -- Check if the device is on for longer then timeOuts, the switch off device. if (( tonumber(fibaro:getValue(id, "value")) > 0 ) and (os.time() - deviceLastModification0) >= timeout) then fibaro:call(id, "turnOff"); local Message = "Device " ..fibaro:getName(id).." With Id " ..id.." on for too long. Stopped." info("[INFO] Message is "..Message) fibaro:startScene(SMsgHsceneID, {Message, targetMail}) -- send SmMsg e-mail end end end
