Fibaro FGS 221 : parameter 4 and 5 setup

Hello ,

I am using a couple of these wonderfull Fibaro relais to switch of my heating system , garage door and gate.

Under UI5 the settings were fine , but now under UI7 I get an error when I want to set parameter 4 and 5.
according the manual I need to set the amount of miliseconds ( 1000 miliseconds = 1 second) , when I go over 255 , the Gui says “Please type a one byte dec number”

So , how will I now insert for example 2 seconds?

attached a screenshot of the Manuel.

Thanks,
Cor

Change to a 2 bite Dec or Hex as the type instead of 1 bite to put in the number.

Hello ,

Just tried it with 2 bite dec and 2 bite hex , but that doesn’t work , I get:

Failed at: Setting user configuration...

Wierd, you are clearly trying to enter 2 bytes worth of data. What data type were you using on UI5?
I would contact support on this one, they might be able to take a look.

under UI5 I was inserting under these 2 parameters 1byte dec 1000 ( 1 sec). And worked fine.

I will send an email to support.

Thanks,

Despite what the manual says, it’s not actually “milliseconds” … if you think about it the range is 0.1 seconds - 6553.5 seconds. If that were to be represented as milliseconds the value entered would need to be 100 - 6553500. Plus a device such as this is never going to have millisecond precision IMO!

What the values 1-65535 actually represent are “tenths of a second”. So value of 1 = 1/10th of a second. To enter a delay of 2 seconds you would enter the value 20.

Parameter size technically should be 2 byte dec, but IIRC that’s never been accepted by the device so use 1 byte dec.

That does make sense.

Thanks a lot for investigating this and informing me .
