Ok the difficulty is finding the trigger to send reset volume

it may be easier to do this, i have used functions to simulate the posistions of the castv2 nodes. Both cast are set the same. give it a try on one of your cast nodes.

Like this?

Have you change the Debug node or is that the same?

ElCid · December 8, 2020, 1:16pm

debug is the same only thing new is the new function node.

cw-kid · December 8, 2020, 1:17pm

So this should change the volume up and down again now ?

Its not doing anything to change the volume level on the Lounge Mini speaker.

cw-kid · December 8, 2020, 1:20pm

Actually that’s not true.

If I manually turn up the volume on the Mini speaker it turns it back down again after the TTS.

ElCid · December 8, 2020, 1:20pm

Have you set volume to something like 100 in the sensors json.
If no volume is set in url then default is 35 so you will not get any change.

run the fireplace trigger but set sensor json for fireplace to 100. It sholud play at 100 then set back to 35.

cw-kid · December 8, 2020, 1:24pm

That works if I set it to 60 in the Sensors function for the Fireplace.

It says the TTS louder and then after the TTS has finished it turns the Mini speaker back down again.

So for the HTTP command URLs we have to specify the TTS volume in the URL right ?

How do we do that?

I’ll have to edit all my Vera Scenes LUA code and PLEG action LUA code, but if that’s the way its gonna work, that’s fine I’ll do that.

Thanks.

slight error in function 1 here is update

[{"id":"a5e81c85.6cb888","type":"function","z":"66b3988b.4a2ea8","name":"","func":"var IPS = msg.payload.ip.split(\"|\");\nvar message = msg.payload.message;\nvar ttsVolume = msg.payload.volume || 35;\nfor (var i in IPS) { \n    //msg.ttsVolume = true;\n    msg.payload = {\"type\":\"VOLUME\",\"volume\":ttsVolume,\"ip\":IPS[i]};\n    node.send([null,msg]);\nmsg.payload = {\n    type: \"TTS\",\n    text: message,\n    language: \"En-gb\",\n    ip: IPS[i],\n    }\nmsg.iptts = IPS[i];\nnode.send([null, [msg]]);\n}\nif(!msg.sensor){\nmsg.payload = \"ok\"; // the response message\nreturn [msg];\n}else{\n return;\n}\n","outputs":2,"noerr":0,"initialize":"","finalize":"","x":200,"y":160,"wires":[["ac7159a9.0806d8"],["67b423dd.7a9a1c"]]}]

in url just add &volume=100 there is a default 35 so you do not have to set volume if you want volume set to 35

cw-kid · December 8, 2020, 1:28pm

Just spotted this line in Function 1

var ttsVolume = msg.payload.volume || 60;

I change it to 60 also for the incoming HTTP commands.

That works now increasing the volume and then decreasing after the TTS

So no need to specify the TTS volume in the URL which is good news.

ElCid · December 8, 2020, 1:30pm

that will set any payload without volume property to 60, The reset will set back to 35. If you want 60 on reset edit function 3

cw-kid · December 8, 2020, 1:32pm

I think I want 60% for the TTS announcement and 35% after the TTS has finished. Which is what I have it setup as now.
