Read and set parameters from code

[Lenfors 0]

Hello!

 

Really dumb question? I assume all devices have values and parameters? From my scene I can read values like fibaro:getValue(18, "power")). But how do I read the parameters E.g. parameter 20 "Switch type" on a Switch. And how can I set the parameters from code? 

 

Best regards, Mikael

Welcome @Lenfors

 

Not sure if this screenshot is of any help to you, but when programming a LUA scene you can use the tool bar on the left to find a device and see its available properties and actions. Hover over the room, then slide over to a device, then slide over to its properties. Clicking on one of these will paste the LUA code in the code box for you:

Hope that helps.

Ok, thank's. I already know about this feature but I can't find the parameters you see under Advanced. There are lots of parameters identified by numbers. E.g. a motion detector has a parameter "1 Motion detection - sensitivity". How can I read this value. And I also want to be able to set these parameters, how can I do that?

 

Best regards, Mikael

Doesn't anyone know how to do this or is it not possible?

If you use the api from fibaro in /docs i believe you can do request to the /devices put. Then you have to insert a json like:

And add the correct id of the device in your case.

Page 12 of

 shows you that, id = 1 for sensitivy, size = 2 and value of 15 is sensitivty.

Some explaining in dutch (you can use google translate) but it shows you a VD example too.

Ok thanks!

I just didn't Think it was that complicated!

I'm really missing some stuff in this LUA programming.....

This entry is a bit older, but I'm also looking for a way to set  a parameter.

For example, to build a virtual scene to calibrate my roller shutters.

Since I have installed 17 modules and sometimes I have someone to recalibrated.

Does anyone have an idea here how to do that in the HC2 with LUA?
 

Thank you so much!

Yes I do, here is a function to change a parameter:

After changing various parameters, it worked perfectly.

 

My changes:

productInfo = "1,15,3,2,16,0,25,25" -- This is a Roller Shutter

...

parameter={id=parameterID,size=2}

 

Thx a lot!
