cancel a delay timer with fibaro:killScenes

[robmac 173]

I have a few delay timers that turn off devices n seconds after turning on.

I currently do this to cancel the timer if switched off within the delay.

It uses 2 scenes. Is there a neater way to do this?

I tried the solution here below, basically put a variable as global and update simultaneously.

The overall mechanism is:

1. Switch on the light only after sunrise and before sunset when the PIR sensor is changing

2. The light will stay ON for 8 mins and gradually will decrease to 0 at the end of 8 mins.

3 In case of further PIR activity the counter will start over from 8 mins.

Maybe the code has still something to improve

_________________________________________________________

(113 is the PIR Sensor)

(86 is the light or led)

Global value is Timer1

--[[

%% properties

113 value

%% globals

--]]

--HERE 2 SCENES ARE POSSIBLE

fibaro:setGlobal("Timer1", "480")

--480 is something you can change = 8 mins

local Countdown = tonumber(fibaro:getGlobalValue("Timer1"))

local Wattled = Countdown/10

--FROM HERE ONWARDS 2 SCENES ARE NOT POSSIBLE

if ((fibaro:countScenes() > 1) or tonumber(fibaro:getValue(86, "value")) > 0)

then fibaro:abort() end;

if os.date("%H:%M", os.time()) > fibaro:getValue(1, "sunsetHour") or

os.date("%H:%M", os.time()) < fibaro:getValue(1, "sunriseHour")then

--switch on only when the sunlight is missing

fibaro:call(86, "turnOn")

--turno on the led RGB

while tonumber(fibaro:getGlobalValue("Timer1"))>0 do

fibaro:sleep(10*1000)

Countdown = tonumber(fibaro:getGlobalValue("Timer1"))

Countdown = Countdown - 10

fibaro:setGlobal("Timer1", Countdown)

Wattled = Countdown/10

fibaro:call(86, "setValue", Wattled)

end

fibaro:call(86, "turnOff")

end

Hi

I have played with countScenes a bit and my experience is that all instances of a scene is killed with fibaro:killScenes(id)
