Disable Too many instances


Question

Posted

Hello,

 

is there a way to disable the "Too Many instances" warning from scenes ?

I am using timeout functions that blocks the scene, which of course tries tiggering more often which I know of.

But this message from the notiifcation center sucks, can i disable that?

Short answer, no. Depending on what you are doing, you could use a queue system with a global variable so the timeout only needs to be run in one scene. Any other triggered scenes are aborted if fibaro:countScenes() > 1.

This also works for loops too.

    Hi, i just set the instances to 2, and used 

    if fibaro:countScenes() > 1.

    to abord my scene.... I am not sure if it is less CPU affected to go with 1 scene limit and live with the error, or doing it this way....

    I try to set instances to 1 with "if fibaro:countScenes()>1 then abort" and then get plenty warnings "Too many instances",  but when I put back to 2 instances then I only occasionally get this warning and only for scenes that are triggered with smart plug power measuring.

    Hi, do you use this line of code in the beginning?

     

    if (fibaro:countScenes() > 1) then

    fibaro:debug('Too many Scenes running up')

    fibaro:abort()

    end

     

    Your code might trigger very often with the power as indicator. If you have a scene with delay or something , it could trigger more than once before it has finished....

    Yes I have this code at beginning of all scenes that are triggered by devices and without any delays and sometimes I still get notification "Too many instances".
