Yet Another Motion Lights (scene)

[10der 832]

Hi!

 

Many clarifications were sought and questions raised on the issue of the "motion light".

So, I have to provide another motion lights scene.

Please find attached the file you requested :)

 

also, this is some samples and comments "how to".

 

Thank you.

Have a nice day. 

 

Oleg.

V2 - 25/11/2018: Added VD support.

VS should have

1)  btnOn = 1, btnOff = 2 buttons

2) lblStatus as label ("ON" / "OFF")

 

V3 - 25/12/2018

1) fixed dimmer level issue

2) now you can use script as timed lighting

@10der thx you again, each post I'm reading you're publishing a new code, how many 10ders are in this forum??? 

I'm using the same light scene since many many years but never signed by you so I'll give a try.

big thanks

@Tony270570 welcome!

Hi, is there a way to use this script with Philips Hue VD's?

Seems this script is what I was looking for, hopefully it can work with VD's with 'On'  and 'Off' buttons.

thx for all the work!

Hi Oleg,

 

I am trying your script with my VD with on and off button, but I get an error:

 

 

[DEBUG] 09:16:41: 2018-11-25 09:16:41.728338 [ fatal] Unknown exception: /opt/fibaro/scenes/17.lua:205: attempt to compare number with nil
 

Line 205 is here:

 

function getPowerState(dev)
    for i, id in ipairs(dev.powers) do
        local deviceState, deviceLastModification = fibaro:get(id, "value")
        -- if (deviceState == nil) then return 0, 0 end
205 --->   if (tonumber(deviceState) > 0) then
            return tonumber(deviceState), deviceLastModification
        end
    end
    return 0, 0
end

 

Has this to do with the VD?

 

thx,

Rik

Yep! will update today. 

This script from my archive.actual version a bit different.

already done

in header now V2

 

[Rikbast 3]

Thx! How about 'luxs' and 'minLux'? I want the lights to turn on when motion is detected AND Lux < 50. What should I put in 'luxs'?

in minLux = 50 I guess?

 

Ah, 'luxs' is the ID of the lux sensor, right?

@Rikbast Well, maybe you haven't read that properly.

OK, I tried, but no Joy.

I will explain what I did:

 

25 = motionsensor

27 = luxsensor

112 = VD with 1= On and 2 = Off

 

local lighting = {
    -- in `sensors` you may use any buttons / switch / door sensers
    -- if no `times` = mean  24/7
    -- if `timeout` = mean 60 sec
    -- id `luxs` = mean ignore lux
    Waskeuken = {
        name = "Waskeuken Scene",
        sensors = {25}, -- motion sensor
        luxs = {27}, -- no lux
        minLux = 50,
        powers = {112}, -- lighting
        timeout = 60 * 5, -- by default 5 min
        times = {}
     }
  }

 

 

There must be something I am doing wrong I am afraid

where 192.168.1.36 IO addr of your HC2

find 

"type": "button"

look  "id":

 

if buttons id's not 1 & 2 - it doesn't work.

otherwise, use 

powers = {112, on = 2, off=3},

I am sorry, I can't seem to get it to work with a VD turning on/off with fibaro motion sensor.

 

local lighting = {
    -- in `sensors` you may use any buttons / switch / door sensers
    -- if no `times` = mean  24/7
    -- if `timeout` = mean 60 sec
    -- id `luxs` = mean ignore lux
    Waskeuken = {
        name = "Waskeuken Scene",
        sensors = {25}, -- motion sensor
        luxs = {27}, -- no lux
        minLux = 50,
        powers = {112,on=1,off=2}, -- lighting
        timeout = 60 * 5, -- by default 5 min
        times = {}
     }
  }
    

Any other suggestions?

This works 

 

local lighting = {
    -- in `sensors` you may use any buttons / switch / door sensers
    -- if no `times` = mean  24/7
    -- if `timeout` = mean 60 sec
    -- id `luxs` = mean ignore lux
    Waskeuken = {
        name = "Waskeuken Scene",
        sensors = {25}, -- motion sensor
        luxs = {27}, -- no lux
        minLux = 50,
        powers = {112, on = 1, off = 2}, -- lighting
        timeout = 60 * 5, -- by default 5 min
        --times = {}
     }
  }

 

However, it seems that the timeout is not working?

Removing 'times' did the trick

[10der 832]

times should be correct or absent at all (24/7)

Edited November 27, 2018 by 10der

[Rikbast 3]

Yes, I removed times

 

The timeout function is not working. I guess it is because the motionsensor is breached for a defined time (in my case 10 s) and after that returns to 0

timeout always should works. it's base functionality.

but... TBH I have some notice here: no motion always calculated by fibaro:getValue(id, "lastBreached")

so., if device reported me (via HC2) about no motion I take lastBreached value and calculate waiting time.

so, if your motion sensor setuped as 30sec waiting no motion but you defined timeout 10sec.... I will be waiting 30 + 10 sec... at least

 

[Rikbast 3]

If I use minLux AND the timeout function, how does your script work then?

Will it always check for minLux and thus keep on the lights? Or will the timeout determine when light go out?

[10der 832]

@Rikbast no. min lux works just only for (additional - logic "and") triggering light no checks after.
