Loop script

[victor.back]

Hi. 

I want to make a set of group adresses to turn On and Off in a sequence loop as long as a switch is turned On, When this switch is turend Off I want this loop to stop. 
I made this event script, but it only runs once and I cant stop it. 
I tried a resident script as well but havent got it right yet, because that just runs all the time even if my switch is On or Off. 

Someone who can help me out here?   

Code:

-- loop until condition is met

if event.getvalue(true)
  then
 
repeat
    grp.write('32/1/127', true)
        os.sleep(1.0)
  grp.write('32/1/128', true)
  grp.write('32/1/127', false)
      os.sleep(1.0)
  grp.write('32/1/129', true)
  grp.write('32/1/128', false)
  os.sleep(1.0)
  grp.write('32/1/130', true)
  grp.write('32/1/129', false)
    sleep(1.0)
  grp.write('32/1/131', true)
  grp.write('32/1/130', false)
    sleep(1.0)
  grp.write('32/1/131', false)

until grp.read('32/1/126', false)
  end

You can start and stop a script with command of this.
Answer to a question of me

Simply create an event script attached to a 1-bit boolean object and put this into the editor.

Code:

enable = event.getvalue()
script.set('bedroom [fb], turn off', enable)

if im right, group adress '32/1/126' is the start and stop adres for this script?
you can add the script (of Admin) above in this group adres to start and stop this script,

I used the script like this

Code:

if lights_TM == true then
script.set('01.03 0 study (tm) (vertraging uit)', enable)
elseif lights_TM == false  then
script.set('01.03 0 study (tm) (vertraging uit)', disable)
end

and use your script you post here in a resident script.

In your while loop you must use grp.getvalue() instead of grp.read(). grp.read() just sends a read request to the bus.

Thanks for your help. 
It now works as I want to (: With this 
Event script

Code:

PendLoop = event.getvalue()
script.set('Pendel loop seq', PendLoop)

if PendLoop == false
  then
  os.sleep(0.1)
    grp.write('32/1/127', false)
  grp.write('32/1/128', false)
  grp.write('32/1/129', false)
  grp.write('32/1/130', false)
  grp.write('32/1/131', false)
  end

Resident script

Code:

repeat
    grp.write('32/1/127', true)
        os.sleep(1.0)
  grp.write('32/1/128', true)
  grp.write('32/1/127', false)
      os.sleep(1.0)
  grp.write('32/1/129', true)
  grp.write('32/1/128', false)
  os.sleep(1.0)
  grp.write('32/1/130', true)
  grp.write('32/1/129', false)
    os.sleep(1.0)
  grp.write('32/1/131', true)
  grp.write('32/1/130', false)
    os.sleep(1.0)
  grp.write('32/1/131', false)

until grp.getvalue('32/1/126', false)
