Enabled vs Running Instance

[UKCamaroSS 2]

Hi,

 

What is the difference between "Enabled" and "Running Instance"?

 

The problem I have is, a scense made in Lua is not working.

I have the HC2 toolkit, and I can see enabled = false, but running instance = 1

 

The scene is supposed to run every one minute between a set time (in this case for testing 09:08 and 09:18: - how do I know if the scense is actually being performed, and therefore the lack of resonse is not a scene issue?

 

--[[
%% autostart
%% properties
%% events
%% globals
--]]

local sourceTrigger = fibaro:getSourceTrigger();
function tempFunc()
local currentDate = os.date("*t");
local startSource = fibaro:getSourceTrigger();
if (
 ( (tonumber(os.date("%H%M")) >= tonumber(string.format("%02d%02d", "09", "08")) and tonumber(os.date("%H%M")) <= tonumber(string.format("%02d%02d", "09", "18"))) and (math.floor(os.time()/60)-math.floor(1470815880/60))%1 == 0 )
)
then
  fibaro:call(46, "pressButton", "1");
      setTimeout(function()
    fibaro:call(46, "pressButton", "1");
  end, 2000)
end

setTimeout(tempFunc, 60*1000)
end
if (sourceTrigger["type"] == "autostart") then
tempFunc()
else

local currentDate = os.date("*t");
local startSource = fibaro:getSourceTrigger();
if (
startSource["type"] == "other"
)
then
  fibaro:call(46, "pressButton", "1");
      setTimeout(function()
    fibaro:call(46, "pressButton", "1");
  end, 2000)
end

end

 

Thanks,

Every 2 seconds you press a button, I don't know what is behind that button, but pressing a button every 2 seconds will kill your system for sure.

 

You can count your scenes with:

fibaro:countScenes(sceneID)

Thanks,

 

What I'm trying to do is to press the button, wait two seconds and press it again, then end.

 

I'm currently (I think, but I am new to code) rerun this every one minute for 10 minutes.

 

The reason I am doing this is the press button does not seem to work (consistently), and therefore I want to press the button, wait a few seconds and try again -- then repeat after one minute -- I would hope to get this down to rerun only twice - so 4 button presses maximum.

 

The button is a virtual device, global cache itach which sends a command.
