    FYI only/anecdotally: I am using both 1.8 with Grafana and 2.0 with it's native graphing. Grafana is subtly prettier, for sure, but I'm not sure it outweighs the convenience of having one less piece of software to install. The only thing I haven't verified for 2.0's graphing is that you can do equations/functions as additional traces. I do that on my temp+humidity graphs in Grafana to compute the dew point; it didn't jump out at me how to do it in 2.0's native graphing, so I owe that a few minutes at some point, but at the moment, I'm trying to button up a ton of work to roll out in a new (MSR) release.

    @perh I've been using MSR for my HVAC since the beginning. I use what I've dubbed "Arm For" rulesets.

    These "control" nothing. The individual rulesets referencing these do that.

    Is there a better way? Probably. This has worked wonderfully for years (starting with RFV and moving to MSR.)

    Ah, yes... if you need to reuse the fetched entity several times, it's definitely better to use a do...done block as the loop body and keep the result of getEntity() in a local variable, so you're only doing that fetch one time. You can then use the local variable as many times as needed... a cache of sorts. I'm with you...

    Installed the new version yesterday along with the new guard and all is still fine this morning. Considering that it was failing very quickly before, I consider that issue fixed.

  • WLED Automations require new Service with HA 2021.12

    For those of you encountering the same issue, after further testing, I stumbled across the fact that the Entity Id that must be used now is "select_preset_wled" versus "light_wled" as was the case before HA 2021.12. When selected, the service drop down should only come up with "select.select_option" and the corresponding option field needs to be populated with the name of the preset you created in WLED (not the number). Note: if you have multiple WLED's set up, your selectable Entity ID list would contain: select_preset_wled, select_preset_wled_1, select_preset_wled_2 and so on...all referring to each of the WLED lights not the actual presets of that light. Hope that helps....

    Master @toggledbits 🙂

    Following the line "I show you the way, I don't give you the transport":), the MSR indicates in Entities the time of the last device status change. Where is this information stored?

    e9bcef0d-fd5c-4e4a-b2fa-0ade8eeb52e7-image.png

    Use case: I want to monitor all devices, and the ones that are not communicating for more than 48 hours should know and take action.

    For sure there are some that can not even, because it would be a problem, then I create an exception list. But initially, I want to see everything that has not been communicated in 48 hours.

    The principle is almost the same as Hubitat's WatchDog APP, but I want to have my own, and not be dependent on Hubitat's communication or action. I also understand that it has more validity, because it is a way to ensure that the MSR is talking to all devices, and not only to Hubitat.

    Thanks.

    He's got a case-insensitive test going; it'll be fine. The problem arises mostly when you send a new mode to Hubitat... that's where you need to be careful and get the case correct.

    Sure enough, it is working just as you (toggledbits) described it. Not sure I could have figured this one out. I have made many attempt using the conditions but since I was having only one, using a group never occured to me. The condition and group have similar output control and restriction but not quite the same. Lesson learned.

    Thanks again

    @alan_f very good! Nothing like consulting those who know how to use the available functions! Thank you very much, I am already removing what I had done and changing it to your instruction, and putting one more command in my knowledge notebook. Thank you very much!

    So I think in my case it really was just quiet on the entity updates, resulting in a lot of warnings and restarts. I added the Hubitat Ping app to my hub and set it to ping it's gateway every 60 seconds. I know from running several ping jobs on my own hub that they show up as recently updated entities on MSR every time they fire. Sure enough, since starting the polling on their hub there have been no more websocket restarts or warnings.I also haven't had any out-of-sync devices yet, so I'll continue to wait until I see that again and try the MSR restart instead of the Hubitat refresh to see what the result is.
