Remaining time or counter

[Erwin van der Zwart]

Hi,

Here is a improved version: (event based on trigger object "32/1/100" of light switch) 

Code:

-- ** Staircase logic with external time object and retriggering on input object Version 3.2 ** -- -- ****************************** Created by Erwin van der Zwart **************************** -- -- ************************************** SET PARAMETERS ************************************ -- -- Set output address AddressOutput = '32/1/101'  -- 01. 1 bit (boolean) -- Set external time address (optional) AddressExternalTime = '32/1/102' -- 07. 2 byte unsigned integer -- Use time left indication UseTimeLeft = true -- Set to false if no time left indication is used -- Set feedback adress of time left indication (optional) AddressTimeLeft = '32/1/103' -- 10. 3 byte time/day -- Set time delay (Used when external time is not available) SetDelay = 300 -- 5 minutes -- Seconds or Minutes SetSec = true -- Set to false for Minutes -- Set factor delay (Multiplies Delay) SetFac = 1 -- Logic can be turned of by value 0 Off_by_Value_Zero = false -- ************************************** END PARAMETERS ************************************ -- -- *************************** DON'T CHANGE ANYTHING UNDER THIS LINE ************************ -- Input_Value = event.getvalue() if Off_by_Value_Zero == false and (Input_Value == false or Input_Value == 0) then  return else  tpid = storage.get('PID:' .. _SCRIPTNAME)  if tpid == nil then      pid = os.getpid()      storage.set('PID:' .. _SCRIPTNAME, pid)  else    pid = os.getpid()      storage.set('PID:' .. _SCRIPTNAME, pid)    os.kill(tpid, signal.SIGKILL)  end   function Calculate_Time(StairCaseTime)     if StairCaseTime > (86400 -1) then        StairCaseTime = (86400 -1)     end     local hours = math.floor(StairCaseTime / 3600 % 24)     local minutes = math.floor(StairCaseTime / 60 % 60)     local seconds = math.floor(StairCaseTime % 60)     time = {       day = 0,       hour = hours,       minute = minutes,       second = seconds,     }     return time   end  if Input_Value == true or Input_Value == 1 then    ValueExternalTime = grp.getvalue(AddressExternalTime) or SetDelay    if SetSec == true then      Multiply_Seconds = 1    else      Multiply_Seconds = 60    end    StairCaseTime = ValueExternalTime * Multiply_Seconds * SetFac    ValueOutput = grp.getvalue(AddressOutput)    if ValueOutput == false then      grp.write(AddressOutput, true)    end    if UseTimeLeft == true then      if StairCaseTime > 0 then        time = Calculate_Time(StairCaseTime)        grp.update(AddressTimeLeft, time)        repeat          StairCaseTime = StairCaseTime - 1          time = Calculate_Time(StairCaseTime)          grp.update(AddressTimeLeft, time)          os.sleep(1)        until StairCaseTime == 0      end        else      os.sleep(StairCaseTime)    end    grp.write(AddressOutput, false)  elseif Input_Value == false or Input_Value == 0 then    ValueOutput = grp.getvalue(AddressOutput)    if ValueOutput == true then      if UseTimeLeft == true then        time = Calculate_Time(0)        grp.update(AddressTimeLeft, time)      end      grp.write(AddressOutput, false)    end  end  storage.delete('PID:' .. _SCRIPTNAME) end

Use these objects types:
