Fasades lighting script by time and outside sensor

[AlexLV]

Hi, I started to create widget for fasades lighting and easy script, but all not so easy for me. Idea - swich On/off by time or/and outside sensor.

At widget I need enter hour/min for On time and hour.min for Off time. Also I added Sensor control - Light level form sensor, Lux when Light will be On, and Delta when Light should be off.

Below my widget (not finished) and script. 

Some moments I need help:

1. How to show zero in front if hours or minutes from 0 to 9 ?
2. For me my idea not forking correctly, fasades light is flashing some times.
3. How check "mistakes" settings better?

Not found example at forum. 
i used resident script 1 minute.

Code:

12345678910111213141516171819202122232425262728293031323334353637

HStart = grp.getvalue('0/1/100') -- Hours to start Fasades Light On MinStart = grp.getvalue('0/1/101') -- Minutes to start Fasades Light On HStop = grp.getvalue('0/1/102') -- Hours to stop Fasades Light On MinStop = grp.getvalue('0/1/103') -- Minutes to stop Fasades Light On SensorValue = grp.getvalue('1/0/100') -- Outside Light Sensor Value LUX SensorLightOn = grp.getvalue('0/1/105') -- LightOn Value LUX LightOffHysteresis = grp.getvalue('0/1/106') -- LightOff Hysteresis LUX ------------------------------------------------------------------------- now = os.date('*t') -- time table time = { day = wday, hour = now.hour, minute = now.min, second = now.sec, } if (now.hour == HStart) and (now.min == MinStart)then   FasadesLightTime = 1   grp.write ('0/2/19', 1) -- Group Fasades Light   end if (now.hour == HStop) and (now.min == MinStop) then   FasadesLightTime = 0   grp.write ('0/2/19', 0)   end if SensorValue <= SensorLightOn then SensorOn = 1   grp.write ('0/2/19', 1) end if SensorValue > SensorLightOn + LightOffHysteresis then SensorOn = 0   grp.write ('0/2/19', 0) end

   

BR,

You have 4 independent IF statements. This causes the light to flicker if more than one statement is true.
I think it makes more sense to create a scheduler tied to sunrise/sunset instead of manually specifying the time.

[AlexLV]

Yes, but customer wants such way. I will try to propose sunset/sunrise variant to him.

Then you need to define your logic correctly. Right now time and sensor value are independent. I suppose you want to control the light using sensor value only when the current time is between user-defined on/off time.

Hello,

I use several scripts to achieve I think what you want:

Script 1 : Scheduled Minute 1,16,31,46 every Hour every Month every day name COMMANDE ECLAIRAGE EXTERIEUR (The name is used in a script to disable it):

Code:

12345678910111213

-- Commande Eclairage exterieur ConsigneLux = grp.getvalue('35/1/3') -- Consigne Lux spaceLYNK StationBat = grp.getvalue('3/0/0') -- Valeur station météo if ConsigneLux > StationBat then     grp.write('0/0/53', true)     grp.write('0/0/54', true)     --grp.write('0/0/63', true) elseif ConsigneLux < StationBat then     grp.write('0/0/53', false)     grp.write('0/0/54', false)     --grp.write('0/0/63', false) end

Script 2 : Event-Based sur 35/1/2=Commande calendrier éclairage extérieur :

Code:

1234567891011

ConsigneH = event.getvalue() -- Retour calendrier - Eclairage exterieur AutoManu = grp.getvalue('35/1/1') -- Auto / Manu Eclairage exterieur (true=Auto false=Manu) if ConsigneH == true and AutoManu == true then     script.enable('COMMANDE ECLAIRAGE EXTERIEUR') elseif ConsigneH == false and AutoManu == true then     script.disable('COMMANDE ECLAIRAGE EXTERIEUR')   grp.write('0/0/53', false)   grp.write('0/0/54', false)   --grp.write('0/0/63', false) end

Script 3 : Event-Based sur 35/1/1=Auto/manu eclairage extérieur :

Code:

1234567891011121314151617181920212223242526

ConsigneLux = grp.getvalue('35/1/3') -- Consigne Lux spaceLYNK StationBat = grp.getvalue('3/0/0') -- Valeur station ConsigneH = grp.getvalue('35/1/2') -- Retour calendrier - Eclairage exterieur AutoManu = grp.getvalue('35/1/1') -- Auto / Manu Eclairage exterieur (true=Auto false=Manu) if AutoManu == false then     script.disable('COMMANDE ECLAIRAGE EXTERIEUR')                        -- Si nous passons en Mode Manu. alors nous désactivons le script de l'auto. nous gardons l'état précédent de l'éclairage   elseif ConsigneH == true and AutoManu == true and ConsigneLux > StationBat then     grp.write('0/0/53', true)     grp.write('0/0/54', true)     --grp.write('0/0/63', true)     script.enable('COMMANDE ECLAIRAGE EXTERIEUR')                         -- Si nous passons en Auto. et qu'il y a besoin de l'éclairage, que nous sommes dans la tranche Horraire alors nous allumons et nous activons le script Auto.   elseif ConsigneH == true and AutoManu == true and ConsigneLux < StationBat then     grp.write('0/0/53', false)     grp.write('0/0/54', false)     --grp.write('0/0/63', false)     script.enable('COMMANDE ECLAIRAGE EXTERIEUR')                         -- Si nous passons en Auto. et qu'il n'y a pas besoin de l'éclairage, que nous sommes dans la tranche Horraire alors nous éteignons et nous activons le script Auto.   elseif ConsigneH == false and AutoManu == true then     grp.write('0/0/53', false)     grp.write('0/0/54', false)     --grp.write('0/0/63', false)     script.enable('COMMANDE ECLAIRAGE EXTERIEUR')                         -- Si nous passons en Auto. et que nous ne sommes pas dans la tranche Horraire alors nous éteignons et nous désactivons le script Auto. end

Then you create a calendar with 35/1/2 Exterior lighting control and you integrate it in addition to your lux setpoint (35/1/3) in your supervision which will give the attached photo, the customer can modify via the schedule the start/stop times in the morning and evening as well as the lux setpoint.

I also added on another page the auto/manu object so that the customer can turn on or off his lighting as he wishes without this automation.
