Thank you Cag04 works perfectly, i had tried trueAct=("26","startProgram","5","") and now see why it did not work.

yes i got that but that involves the front door being opened to check dosent it? can it be monitored without opening any doors?

 

Thanks Len

Yes, but do you need to perform any action when it armed/disarmed or as a condition to other action?

If you need to monitor the state and perform actions then it just a standard jM line:

{0,"`fronDoor`",{state="armed=true",trueAct={....},falseAct={....}}},

when i am away from home i used to check whether the alarm was armed or disarmed with a scene then a popup would tell me what the state of the alarm was. If i had not armed it i could arm it using a fibaro widget on my phone.

hope that makes sense?

Yes,

So the jM line I posted suits your needs, right?

It could be done in several option.

I suggest to create blank keyword name "$timer" and use it for any time-based actions executions.

So,

define new keyword in

userKeyWord={{"$timer","$HC2onLine","$dayTime"},
{"",function() return tostring(api.get("/settings/info")["online"]) end,
 function() return  os.date("*t",os_time()).hour<6 and "Good night," or os.date("*t",os_time()).hour<12 and "Good morning," or os.date("*t",os_time()).hour<18 and "Good afternoon," or os.date("*t",os_time()).hour<=23 and "Good evening," end }}

 

Now add new line to jM{}

 {0,"$timer",{timeSlot="$sunriseHour~,?$sunsetHour-3600?~",
      trueAct={{"TOD","setGlobal","Light","{$24clock:value=$sunriseHour}"},{"TOD","setGlobal","Dark","{$24clock:value=?$sunsetHour-3600?}"}}}},

 

in future just add more and more actions

hi CAG014,

how do i add a line to JM{} to interrogate the contents of a global variable TOD and act on its value? the result will be a string

 

thanks

Len

[cag014 628]

(0,"&TOD",{state="value=<str_vallue>",trueAct={..},falseAct={...}, tirgAct={..}}},

 

add any needed action...

hi Cag014,

trying to use the global TOD in the line below get an error message

[DEBUG] 20:10:07: 2020-02-21 20:10:07.516380 [ fatal] Unknown exception: /opt/fibaro/scenes/405.lua:54: unexpected symbol near '}'

 

 

the line i used is:-

0,"&TOD",{state="value=<dark>",trueAct={"message","setGlobal","Global variable is dark ",}}},

 

if i remove the line all is ok so know its my fault somewhere on this line!

i checked the TOD global and it is set to dark

 

[magicman 9]

sorry CAG014 i have sorted it out it was my typo thank you for your time

hi Cag014

 

just writing my house alarm scene to add to AOS, how do i reproduce sleep(50) in a JM{} line.

 

eg

fibaro:call(50,"turnOn")

fibaro:sleep(50)

fibaro:call(50,"turnOff)

 

Thanks

this is the 3rd parameter in commands.

By the way the value should be in seconds.

hi cag014,

 

Please login or register to see this code.

does this equate to a= true,b=true,c=false? or does this say a,b,c are all false?

Thanks
