Using scenes as devices

Community Playground General Discussions

Hello there,

Using Vera Edge UI7 already some time, but only the standard available possibilities. No knowledge of Luup, Lua or PLEG.
I am wondering if there is a plugin (or somebody capable of creating one) that turns scenes into a devices. This would enable the use of the same (only once created) scenes in different situations or triggers. Or am I thinking completely wrong here? Anybody to point me in the right direction? Simple answer like: Get to know PLEG you fool, is also ok…

thks,

Eric

you can run a scene from a scene. At least i am sure I have seen that in the forum, if it helps.

Frequently used functions can be defined globally in Startup Lua and then used as many times as you like in any scene code.

HouseModes Plugin…I think is what you are looking for. Gives you a “device” that has the various house modes. So you could set up scenes based on modes and devices can trigger a mode switch…etc…

…and yes…PLEG… but I don’t know anything about PLEG.

Hands down get to know pleg and experiment, refine and play.

I do code at work (not lua) and was on the fence if I would bother learning it or get a pleg licence.

I’m glad I just jumped into pleg, there’s not allot you can’t do with it.
