Hi Jaap, my knowledge of lua is even less than zero but from reading the code I understand I have to create a predefined variable with the values Morning, Day, Evening and Night. I did this now the script is running and it is 10:26 in the morning but the script keeps reporting [DEBUG] 10:26:01: Current time does not match any scenario.  Is there anything else I need to preconfigure?

Hi Jaap,

 

You can also do "if time between x and Y" then morning/afternoon/etc. You then know for sure it will always match, even if the HC2 is down for some time and you reboot the system. Example of the TimeOfDay script I use:

Hi guys,

 

Instead of putting fixed times in your scripts or scenes, I would recommend to use the trigger Sunset & Sunrise (.. and, to set a state of presence, just use global variables).

That way you don't have to edit times every now and then because it automatically grabs data from a table on the web, plus, the global variable can be used as a condition for executing the scene / script.

 

Best regards,

Mark

Hi Mark,

 

It depends what the needs is for the scene off course, my scene was made 3 years ago and never changed since.

The scene of Jaap is already using Sunset and Sunrise, I only wanted to show that you can use between time x and y (also possible for Sunset/Sunrise off course, already somewhere on this forum), so that it also works if you made/save the script at 10:26 as Andor stated.
