Why didnt it work?

[Guest David R]

Can some one point me in the right direction? I wrote my first code today simple on/off lights scene. It showed no errors and debug was showing it was running. All devices numbers were correct so I sat back and waited for the lights to come on and.....nothing lol! Does anyone know where I went wrong? Thanks

if (fibaro:countScenes() > 1) then

fibaro:abort()

end

while true do

local currentDate = os.date("*t");

local theTime = (string.format("%02d", currentDate.hour) .. ":" .. string.format("%02d", currentDate.min))

fibaro:debug(theTime)

if (theTime == "06:00") then

fibaro:call(96, "turnOn")

fibaro:call(100,"turnOn");--turn table lamps on at 6am--

elseif (theTime == "06:30") then

fibaro:call(108, "turnOn"); --turn outside light on at 6.30am--

elseif (theTime == "07.30")

then fibaro:call (96, "turnOff")

fibaro:call (100, "turnOff")

--turn table lamps off @ 7.30am--

elseif (theTime == "8.00")

then fibaro:call (108, "turnOff") --turn outside light off at 8.00am--

--evening on/off--

elseif (theTime == "17.00")

then fibaro:call (96, "turnOn")

fibaro:call (100, "turnOn")--turn lamps on at 5pm--

elseif (theTime == "17.45")

then fibaro:call (108, "turnOn") -- turn outside light on at 5.45pm--

elseif (theTime == "23.00")

then fibaro:call (100, "turnOff")

fibaro:call (96, "turnOff")--turn off table lamps at 11pm--

elseif (theTime == "23.30")

then fibaro:call (108, "turnOff")--turn outside light off at 11.30pm--

end

fibaro:sleep(60 * 1000)

end

you used . instead of : in the times you compared with. eq 17.00 instead of 17:00.

for the current time, i always use:

local currentTime = os.date("%H:%M");

Ok script worked now. Only my time in the top corner says correct time as in London GMT but wrong time in set time so all my timers are an hour out. But I guess this is a beta issue.

uk.pool.ntp.org shows it an hour in front of actual UK time?
