Change VD icon based on variable value

[kevin 34]

Hi,

 

I have created a VD that changes the VD icon based on a variable. The debug is not showing an error but the icon keeps the same (icon 1058) and doesn't change when the variable value changes. 

Why doesn't it change to icon 1060?

Hi,

 

i'm not shure but I believe it's a matter of case sensitivity of your global. You also can optimize the script like follow:

I want also to see which door is open or closed.

So I have added a label and added the line below to the code but I get to see a 0 or 1, but I want to see open or closed. How can I achieve that?

I think I need to type something else than value ad the end of the line, but can't find what. I there a list to see what different codes you can type here?

Hello Kevin,

 

i think it depends to what you want to have. Sensors with 2 states have only values 0 or 1. So you can translate values like this in your VD:

Thank you @AndyY

 

Sorry to bother you again?

 

It worked, until I added a second label and device. Now the code is as below and now I see 0 or 1 instead of open or dicht. Debug shows no error. I have read the code multiple times but can't see why it doesn't function?. When I set it back to 1 label and device it is not working again ?

Hello @kevin,

 

really no problem ?

 

You did nearly everything right but the "label states" section needs to be put at the end:
