Remaining time or counter

[davidchispas]

Hello, using this great script I would like to modify it with your help.

So far this script is executed with the detection object. In my case, this object, through another script, is just a 1-second toggle to correct issues that sometimes occur when the detector does not send 'no detection'. The output object is modified with a checkwrite so that it only sends it once.

On the other hand, I have a Lock object and I want to use it to lock the detector and this script.

I would like if it is possible that this Blocking object, apart from blocking the script, could reset the time to zero and not modify the output object..

Code:

Well, after a lot of trial/error, I got the result.

I think it can surely be simplified, so any suggestions are welcome.

This is triggered by events assigning the same tag on the input object and the lock object.

Every time the input object is activated (I do it with a 1 second toggle), the parameterized time starts. Activating the lock, locks the function, does not modify the output object, resets the timer, and removes it from storage.

Hi,
It asked above but i cannot find an answer.
With an additional reset group addres, can we stop the script and make remaning time max . We need to stop process during countdown with an additional group address

Can you describe your task in more detail? There's a similar script that can be adapted: https://forum.logicmachine.net/showthrea...5#pid26505

Hi , I am looking a non residential script solution. I need 200 timer like in 1 LM and it's impossible to do with zero timer residential script. 
I need an update version of Mr. Erwin's script. It's event script. I need another event script which kill immediately main script which has some ossleep timer function.

Regards

[admin]

Single resident script that I've posted can handle multiple timers.

Erwin's script saves process ID into storage. You can stop the script like this, change scriptname as needed:

Code:

12345678

scriptname = 'my_event_script' key = 'PID:' .. scriptname pid = storage.get(key) if pid then   os.kill(pid, signal.SIGKILL)   storage.delete(key) end

But this approach is not 100% correct though because in some rare cases several event script instances can run in parallel.

When i try to run this scrip it says: "2023.05.26 21:38:52","stairc","Resident script:38: attempt to index global 'event' (a nil value)

And can someone please post the newest script? there is so many variations in here!

This script must be event not resident.

[Novodk]

This script must be event not resident.

okay, what about the input address then? same as event address?


Okay I got It working, but not the way I think It should work!

If I put a 1 in the " AddressBlocking = '32/1/7' " then the script kinda works, but the retriggering is acting up, it jumps all over the place.

Maybe I expect the script to behave different,  I have 10 "toggle spring buttons" short press they send a 1 for a short time to 4/0/1 long press (2 sec) they send a 1 for a short time to 32/1/7, you click 1 button the light turns on, you click it again and the light keeps on but the timer resets to its beginning state. You hold 1 button for 2 sec and the light turns off and the timer goes to 0.

Code:

12345678910111213141516171819202122

Event address '4/0/1' -- Set input address AddressInput = '4/0/1' -- 01. 1 bit (boolean) -- Set output address AddressOutput = '32/1/6' -- 01. 1 bit (boolean) -- Set external time address (optional) AddressExternalTime = '55/1/4' -- 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 = '32/1/5' -- 255 byte string -- Set blocking address AddressBlocking = '32/1/7' -- Set time delay (Used when external time is not available) SetDelay = 20 -- 2 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

This script is meant for a single input control. It won't work correctly since you have separate on/off controls. What is the reason for such setup? It would make more sense to send 0 to the same group address when a long press is performed.

I have 10 "toggle spring buttons" 
230v binary input knx device
Output relay knx device

The customer want to be able to turn ON the lights with a "short" press and start a timer (10 min).
If you press a "short" press when the lights are ON, the timer need to go back to the set value (10 min).
If you make a "long" press the lights need to turn OFF.
And they need to be able to see if the lights are ON or OFF and what time there is left until it turns OFF in the visualization.

Here is my solution for a patio heater, controlled by wall switch but with a widget created in touch so the customer can set the timer as active or not and alter the timer length.

Code:

1234567891011121314151617181920212223242526272829303132333435363738394041424344

-- Event script attached to status object -- local state = event.getvalue() now = os.time() -- Group adress for time object, 2-byte unsigned newtimer = grp.getvalue('1/1/1') updatetimer = newtimer * 60 timer = updatetimer + now -- Group adress for determining if timer is active or not, 1-bit activeTimer = grp.getvalue('1/1/2') if activeTimer == true then     if state == true then       storage.set('timerObject1', timer)       script.enable('timerObject1(res)')       log('Timer for timerObject1 is activated')     else       storage.set('timerObject1', 0)       script.disable('timerObject1(res)')     end else end -------------- Script below is a resident script ---------------------------------- -- Resident script, set as inactive and 10 second execution time -- Name this script the same as above (timerObject1(res)) time = os.time() endTime = storage.get('timerObject1', 0) if endTime == 0 then   else     if time > endTime then     -- Group adress for the SW-objekt       grp.write('1/1/0', false)     log('Timer for timerObject1 has expired, is has been turned off')     end end

Not as pretty as a simple script for all 10, but with more flexibility. Of course, all variable for storage and resident scripts need to have their named changed for this to work with more than 1 object.

Edit:

Here is what the widget looks like, and also attached. Please translate as needed.

Hi guys, I'm using Erwin's script.
But recently I've been getting this error message in the script log.
I use the script to operate an EnOcean switching module. It sends a short button signal to my garage door opener.
Everything still works, only this error message is new.
What could it be?

Thanks for the help
