Triple Click not working

[wesselvvvb 1]

What am I doing wrong:

 

A few months ago I made a scene (scene 1)

 

1) If I triple click on a light switch the scene will activate another scene (scene 2 = turning off all lights in the house)

 

Scene 1

 

--[[ 

%% properties 

152 sceneActivation 

%% globals 

--]] 

 

local id= 152;  -- Change this to your dimmer ID 

 

if (tonumber(fibaro:getValue(id, "sceneActivation"))==15) then 

  fibaro:debug("3click activated, all out "); 

  fibaro:setGlobal("Sleep", "1") -- Change this to your sleep variable(if you have one) 

  fibaro:startScene(2); -- or start a second scene 

end 

 

Scene 2

 

--[[

%% properties

 

%% globals

--]]

 

fibaro:call(19, "turnOff")

fibaro:call(150, "turnOff")

fibaro:call(20, "turnOff")

fibaro:call(152, "turnOff")

fibaro:call(14, "turnOff")

fibaro:call(21, "turnOff")

fibaro:call(18, "turnOff")

fibaro:call(6, "turnOff")

fibaro:call(148, "turnOff")

fibaro:call(12, "turnOff")

fibaro:call(39, "turnOff")

 

It works and it is still working for dimmer 152.

 

Now I would like to make the same construction with another light switch/dimmer (ID 65).

 

But I cannot get it working. I might changed some parameters or associations. I cannot remember.

 

Could please tell me what I have to do to activate a scene with triple click?

 

Thanks in advance.

May I advise you check the manual for that particular module? It's model depended. Not all devices support it.

[j.nowacki 5]

If this is Dimmer 2 there is no sceneActivation on triple click for a very simple reason - this is reserved for sending Node Info frame (which is used e.g. in inclusion/exclusion process). Despite the fact this was available in previous modules we decided to eliminate it due to accidental inclusions/exclusions.

[M4T VW 2]

So how do you stop a scene with the dimmer 2? Is there only one scene activation on the double click?

Can you turn off the inclusion on triple click to have the 2nd scene back?

[j.nowacki 5]

I do not get your query about stopping scene. Tripple click never stopped anything, it simply starts another scene and it depends on your scenes code how they behave.

Hello mr Nowacki,

 

This Dimmer is a Dimmer 1 (not Dimmer 2).

The Dimmer with ID 65 (which is not working) is exactly the same as the dimmer with ID 152 (which IS working) and are both dimmers 1.

 

Is there a possibility to activate a scene another way (with dimmer 1 and 2)?

[petergebruers 1,268]

Maybe this little script can demonstrate how ScneActivation works.

To use it, please first check both dimmers have Parameter 41 (the last one) set to "activation".

Then REPLACE $ID1 and $ID2 with the device id's you have. It's a few times in this script. You cant use variables, only numbers.

 

Please login or register to see this code.

When you operate the switch, this should print the codes that are listed under Parameter 41.

[petergebruers 1,268]

In scene 2 under "%% properties" you are missing "65 SceneActivation" (without quotes). If you add that, it'll get triggered. But you still need the same kind of "if then" structure as in my script or your first script.

[wesselvvvb 1]

Ok. Thanks Peter.

I'll try it.

 

Strangely enough I tried my construction again and now it seems to work sometimes (not all the time).

[petergebruers 1,268]

If you have sceneActivation, plus scenes that start other scenes, plus maybe scenes that are triggered by "value" changes (you don't say that) and possibly associations, then the situation can get complex.

I've got a feeling that I do not understand your setup. And maybe it's too complex to explain anyway.

What I would do is check associations and remove them, don't start other scenes (right now, just comment them out) from scenes, ...

[wesselvvvb 1]

Actually it is really simple:

 

If a dimmer is triggered with three clicks start a scene.

 

But I do understand what you mean: keep it as simple as possible!

Yes, for debugging I recommend that... Actually, maybe it's because I find the question "triggered with three clicks start a scene" a little odd. A scene is started by ANY sort of clicking, as soon as for Dimmer 1 you set Parameter 41. In the script, you have to check what sort of click was sent in your lua code.

Can you please try my little script? It tells so much more than - er - "a thousand words".

[wesselvvvb 1]

I will try it later and keep you posted here.

Thanks for your input.
