is it possible to manipulate a Trend?
I use the Weather script from the Examples. In there is a Object call: "precipitation_amount_6h". If i run the Script every hour then i have a continius forecast of 6hours of Rain.
Can i manipulate a Trend to show the aktual data +6hours. So i hava a "forecast trend" ?

I hope you understand what i mean.

Thanks.
Kind regards.

Questions

Does the HTML widget in the new visualization support inline / embedded JavaScript execution, or is it limited to HTML/CSS rendering only?
Is Custom JavaScript in the new visualization supposed to interact with DOM elements created inside an HTML widget?
If we build a custom HTML-based interface in the new visualization, is there any officially supported way to trigger KNX writes (switch / dimming / RGB values) from that interface?
If not, is the recommended approach to use native LM widgets only for all control logic in the new visualization?

I would like to confirm what is officially supported before finalizing the architecture of a custom supervision page.

I'm having an issue with getting datetime. I used a script from the Logicmachine site:

Code:
-- get current date as table
now = os.date('*t')

-- write to bus
grp.write('0/0/2', now, dt.date)
grp.write('0/0/1', now, dt.time)

-- system week day starts from sunday, convert it to knx format
wday = now.wday == 1 and 7 or now.wday - 1

--- full date bits
OCT08 = now.year - 1900
OCT07 = now.month
OCT06 = now.day
OCT05 = bit.bor(bit.lshift(wday, 5), now.hour)
OCT04 = now.min
OCT03 = now.sec
OCT02 = 0 -- subfields like working day and dst not specified in this sample
OCT01 = 0 -- subfields like quality of clock not specified in this sample

-- write to bus
date_time = string.char(OCT08, OCT07, OCT06, OCT05, OCT04, OCT03, OCT02, OCT01)
grp.write('0/0/3', date_time)

Date and time works (0/0/2 and 0/0/1) but 0/0/3 gives no output.

What am I doing wrong? Smile

A resident script (60s interval) picks a random light from a list of 4, turns it on for a random time between 1–3 hours, then turns it off. Presence mode is controlled by a virtual on/off object.

Logic: Presence mode ON → random lamp ON → os.sleep(random 1-3h) → lamp OFF.
I've tested os.sleep() and sleep(). Both work, script DOES NOT run again (60s interval ) while "sleeping".

Questions:
1. What is the difference between sleep() and os.sleep()? Are there any practical differences in behaviour?
2. Will os.sleep() for 1–3 hours cause any load on the LM?
3. Is resident script the right approach for this, or is there a better way?

Thanks!

  { addr = '40/3/4', name = 'lamp 4' },

I'm building a custom app with a simple UI that stores some data in a database table but also needs to act as a server that passes those data in JSON format to other lm5s with a custom API request.

As the app is the endpoint of that http request, I need to authenticate my client to be able to access the app but I can't simply pass user:password in the url, right?

I want to, in a loop, check a lot of adresses based on the content of the tagcache. I know that I can create a table with all objects with a certain tag by using the obj = grp.tag(), but I want to check for more than one spesifik tag within a range of objects where some can have "tag1, tag2, tag3" etc, and others maybe just "tag1".

Is there some kind of wildcard I can use for this, like '*tag1*' in the script?

I have a SQL query that finds all the objects I want to check. Within that rage I want to do different things with the objects depending on which tags are on each object.

Example; all objects containing "tag2"; switch on to 30%, all other objects; switch OFF.]]>

one of my customer is asking if there is a way to change the holidays calendar automatically by year (let' s pretend that I can retrieve this information somehow Confused

)

for example: he wants to change the holiday schedule automatically with every non working day in Italy in 2026, next year it will be updated.

I know, it's a crazy request.

Code:
    for i, tag in ipairs(tags) do
      if tag == 'MEC' then
        -- ASSEGNO LISTA MAIL DA UTILIZZARE
            iddest = emailsMAN
      elseif tag == 'ELE' then
            iddest = emailsVIS2
        -- COMPILARE LISTA MAIL PER CUI ALLARME E ATTIVO
      elseif tag == 'TEC' then
            iddest = emailsALL
        -- COMPILARE LISTA MAIL PER CUI ALLARME E ATTIVO
      elseif tag == 'ALL' then
            iddest = emailsALL
        -- COMPILARE LISTA MAIL PER CUI ALLARME E ATTIVO     
      else
        -- COMPILARE LISTA MAIL PER CUI ALLARME E ATTIVO    
      end 
    end    
    
        -- verificare indirizzi a cui mandare mail
        emails = {}
        
      -- verifico indirizzi per MAIL
            if (grp.getvalue('32/1/29') == true) then
              maddr= grp.getvalue('32/1/1')

Code:
    for i, tag in ipairs(tags) do
      if tag == 'MEC' then
        -- ASSEGNO LISTA MAIL DA UTILIZZARE
            iddest = emailsMAN
      elseif tag == 'ELE' then
            iddest = emailsVIS2
        -- COMPILARE LISTA MAIL PER CUI ALLARME E ATTIVO
      elseif tag == 'TEC' then
            iddest = emailsALL
        -- COMPILARE LISTA MAIL PER CUI ALLARME E ATTIVO
      elseif tag == 'ALL' then
            iddest = emailsALL
        -- COMPILARE LISTA MAIL PER CUI ALLARME E ATTIVO     
      else
        -- COMPILARE LISTA MAIL PER CUI ALLARME E ATTIVO    
      end 
    end    
    
        -- verificare indirizzi a cui mandare mail
        emails = {}
        
      -- verifico indirizzi per MAIL
            if (grp.getvalue('32/1/29') == true) then
              maddr= grp.getvalue('32/1/1')

I was thinking of using this code, but I don't know how to pass the group to the email address. I wanted to know if there was a way to assign TAGS to the email address, then compare the matches, add them to the address list, and finally check the various lists. If the length is >0, send emails to the lists, sending for all the lists.

Could this be a solution?

I get feedback from a pharos lightning controller (from 0 to lets say 100) and want to convvert it to status object in knx.

The code below is working fine but I have some status that should be True if "status" = 31, if "status" is betwen 41-45 nothing shall happen and if "status" is any other number status should be False.

How to do that?

Code:
status = event.getvalue()

if (status == 17 ) then
  grp.checkwrite('STATUS_SCEN1', true)
else
  grp.checkwrite('STATUS_SCEN1', false)
end

if (status == 18 ) then
  grp.checkwrite('STATUS_SCEN2', true)
else
  grp.checkwrite('STATUS_SCEN2', false)
end

if (status == 19 ) then
  grp.checkwrite('STATUS_SCEN3', true)
else
  grp.checkwrite('STATUS_SCEN3', false)
end
