"next level" control

Other Devices & Integrations Lighting & Load Control
1

I have 2 scenarios I want to implement. I am sure something like this has been done before so if somebody wants to just link me to another thread/wiki/etc I am all for that. These questions probably outline the fact I need to further my basic (block diagram level) understanding of the vera setup.

  1. I want to handle the double click of an instant on light switch, and have to run a scene. I could right the pseudo code… but not idea how that would fit in. I am sure with some googling I could fit in the pseudo code into Luup but I am not sure I understand where this would be placed in the GUI.

2)The other is an if than. I want a light to dim when the button is pressed if b/w certain times a day, etc.

I think if I can sort out those basics, getting the other more complex things I have rolling around in my mind going will be just a matter of attempting/debugging and trying again.

Thanks…

I am not aware of many devices that will notify Vera if they are already on.

Do you mean on,off,on?

All of this is easy with PLEG

Not already on… but A switch is basically a button and a relay.

When I hit the button, Vera says “hey, flip that relay state”.

I want to do a check for 2 button presses in a certain time frame, and make that flip a different relay. Since instant status should report immediately, this should be possible?

As I said, if you can find a device that provides the notifications to Vera that you need, PLEG can provide the logic, using sequence expressions or multi triigger expressions.

Copy. diving into PLEG now. Thanks for the direction.
