Scene to run only once


OLIVARE

Recommended Posts

I would like to setup a scene that is triggered with motion sensor.   But it should only run the scene between 8 am and 9 am an only once per day.   I have it work for the entire process, but it runs every time the motion is tripped.  Two things I am looking to solve.


1)   How can I have it only run between 8 am and 9 am
2)   Only run once per day?


Basically want motion sensor to open blinds in living area when i first walk in to living area in the morning.

 

Thanks

Kyle

    1. Create a Global Variable with the name Blinds.

    2. Use this code (change the ID of the motionsensor and ID of the blinds:

    This should do the trick.

     for the reply!

     

    Ok i have created the variable called Blinds and set the value to 0 (standard).

     

    I have then created a Lua Scene and added your code to it and changed the two ID as shown above the xxxx but its not triggering the blind to even open.

     

    Any idea what it could be? 

     

    Thanks in advance!

    Can you post your scene?

     

    Try this (more logging):

    Please login or register to see this code.

    If triggered it says "Motionsensor trigger", if the if clause  passes it says "Blinds open", otherwise "Something else".

  • --[[

    %% properties

    150 value

    %% globals

    --]]

     

    startTime = "08:00"

    stopTime = "11:00"

    currentDate = os.date("%x");

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

     

    fibaro:debug("Motionsensor trigger")

     

    -- check script instance count in memory 

    if (tonumber(fibaro:countScenes()) > 1) then 

      log("Script already running.");

      fibaro:abort(); 

    end

     

    local sourceTrigger = fibaro:getSourceTrigger();

    if sourceTrigger["type"] == "property" and fibaro:getGlobalValue("Blinds") ~= currentDate and currentTime >= startTime and currentTime < stopTime

    then

      fibaro:call(221, "open");

      fibaro:setGlobal("Blinds", currentDate)

      fibaro:debug("Blinds open")

      else

      fibaro:debug("Something else")

    end

    But it is not working, should say once "Blinds open" (i see that you adjusted the time till 11:00, so that it should met)???

     

    If it is not working could you change

    if sourceTrigger["type"] == "property" and fibaro:getGlobalValue("Blinds") ~= currentDate and currentTime >= startTime and currentTime < stopTime

    to

    if fibaro:getGlobalValue("Blinds") ~= currentDate and currentTime >= startTime and currentTime < stopTime

    Should put it to 0 again, it already met the statement once and it will only run once (a day)

    You can remove the extra lines of debugging if you want.
