[quote=“garrettwp, post:15, topic:172221”][quote=“LightsOn, post:14, topic:172221”]Hi JVilla,
yes this is all new and chalengeing to me also - however - good news i have a soloution working 
create 2 scenes, one that turns the virtual switch on and one that turns it off - simple enough. now creat yet anouther scenen (this will be the toggle button for the virtual switch. in the toggle button scene add the below luup code:
Name_of_action = luup.variable_get(“urn:upnp-org:serviceId:VSwitch1”,“Status”,ADD_DEVICE_ID)
if(Name_of_action==“1”)then
luup.call_action(“urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:HomeAutomationGateway1”,“RunScene”,{SceneNum=“ADD_SCENE_NUMBER”},0)
else
luup.call_action(“urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:HomeAutomationGateway1”,“RunScene”,{SceneNum=“ADD_SCENE_NUMBER”},0)
end
change your device id, scene number, and add a name for the action - or leave name of action as is as it will still work.
you now can toggle a virtual switch - happy days ;D
now time for a sit down and a brain relax for me…[/quote]
Try this:
status = luup.variable_get("urn:upnp-org:serviceId:VSwitch1","Status", DEVICE_ID)
if(status=="1")then
luup.call_action("urn:upnp-org:serviceId:VSwitch1", "SetTarget", {newTargetValue = "0"}, DEVICE_ID)
else
luup.call_action("urn:upnp-org:serviceId:VSwitch1", "SetTarget", {newTargetValue = "1"}, DEVICE_ID)
end
No need for two additional scenes. Just create the one scene and add the luup code.

sorry for my confusion. what would this luup code do? turn the VS on and off at certain times? i created a simple scene and scheduled the VS to turn on at sunset daily so that my light scenes will run and turn VS at around 5am. also, how do i use these codes for the VS to arm/disarm door sensors? thanks.
