@toggledbits Since I have upgraded ZWaveJSController to 24293 from 24257 I am seeing entries related to registering action set_volume, but action is not defined by the capability 143 every time I restart Reactor.
The Siren seems to be doing what it is supposed to do. The volume levels are fine. Should I worry about it?
Reactor version 24302

This has been working flawlessly each year incl this year until... Tonight... nada.
Is this due to the holiday being late this year ie because today is the 22nd, not after the 22nd?
I've managed to use MSR UI on iOS devices to some degree*, so that although UI elements (e.g. rule sets) are not visible in portrait mode, you've seen them in landscape. Now with recents builds (24302) this does not work anymore, elements (rule sets, entities) are not anymore visible in landscape mode.
Does anyone have similar experiences? Using iOS 18 and Safari/Chrome browser.
( *Drag & drop of rule conditions have never worked on a mobile)
Hi @toggledbits,
I have lots of logs with this:
<Engine:ERR> Assignment to alarm ignored -- expression-driven global cannot be set by assignmentAny hints to where look at to avoid this? Thanks.
Hi @toggledbits
I'd like to update my controllers with these new features, but I'm struggling to find any guidance in the docs - and in general to understand the context.
Could you please elaborate more? Thanks.
I have the following ACL defined:
groups: admin: users: - admin applications: true api_acls: # This ACL allows users in the "admin" group to access the API - url: "/api" group: admin allow: true log: true # This ACL allows anyone/thing to access the /api/v1/alive API endpoint - url: "/api/v1/alive" allow: trueAnd I have authenticated to MSR as "admin" user. However, I'm getting "access denied" when trying to access http://*******:8111/api/v1/log
So what I'm missing, is my ACL incorrectly defined?
Using build 24302 on Docker.
Thanks to @toggledbits for adding a custom CSS. I've started doing a darker Reactor style.
Here's the file: https://gist.github.com/dbochicchio/825098ac13b7f8cac22012eae37ff7ce
A couple of things are still too bright and I'll eventually catch-up. Just place it under your /config directory, naming the file as customstyles.css. Hard refresh your browser.
Hi!
In Home Assistant I sometimes uses the TTS, either to my Sonos or Google speakers. With reactor in Vera I also use TTS.
But in MSR I can't select the TTS-service. It's simply not there. Am I missing something, or is this the case, so far?
Thanks!

Hi
I have just connected a bunch of EzloPi controllers to MSR to import some ESP based devices etc.
They all seemed to have worked and imported in to MSR apart from I have one missing device. It is a Digital Gas Sensor device.
This is how that device looks in the Ezlo API.

They have an EzloPi website here you can create your own sensor projects using ESP boards, which is very interesting stuff!
And I just wrote on the Ezlo forum here, how to connect an EzloPi controller to MSR.
THANKS.
Build 21228 has been released. Docker images available from DockerHub as usual, and bare-metal packages here.
Home Assistant up to version 2021.8.6 supported; the online version of the manual will now state the current supported versions; Fix an error in OWMWeatherController that could cause it to stop updating; Unify the approach to entity filtering on all hub interface classes (controllers); this works for device entities only; it may be extended to other entities later; Improve error detail in messages for EzloController during auth phase; Add isRuleSet() and isRuleEnabled() functions to expressions extensions; Implement set action for lock and passage capabilities (makes them more easily scriptable in some cases); Fix a place in the UI where 24-hour time was not being displayed.A couple of things for you @toggledbits, since you mentioned that this release has new features and some tweaks are expected.
Local expressions cannot be deleted. Pushing the X button has no effect for me.
When cloning an entity action, the result is strange (first is cloned one, second is the original action):
a92ea094-9e2c-4aaa-bf47-2d07a6ffdbd0-image.png
When changing the action on the cloned element, the params are added to the original one. See screenshot:
92ac3011-83c8-466b-bd23-47d483ad7a52-image.png
Dark theme has a couple of strange contrasts. One is visible in the previous screenshots (white text on yellow background). Another one is in groups (blue text on blue background):
9b3c4988-53ef-44e6-9672-30e744cacb75-image.png
Overall, I found blue, yellow, red and green (in buttons and forms) to be too bright.
On the bright side:
I love the new script action: thank you! The dark theme is a great start to avoid getting blinded at night I promise I'll try very soon the new features around actions. Thanks!@toggledbits
I just upgraded to version MSR 24293, bare metal running on Fedora. Upon restart, I am getting a error banner:
I followed the new directions about npm
npm i --no-save --no-package-lock --omit dev
Any idea what the issue is?
Seems like switching the UI to the newly added dark mode (thank you for this) does nothing. The UI stays in light mode and only a few buttons turn into dark mode (see screenshot)
Things I have tried:
Hard refresh
Different browser
Different computer

Good morning,
I have a service MQTT service that needs a restart occasionally. The add-on (Smartbed MQTT) is for the smart bed base for my bed. It has a "safety light" that I can control from HAAS & MSR as a light entity, and also moves the head of the bed to a preset at bedtime, and then lies it back flat in the morning The problem is, from time to time, the light becomes "unavailable" Restarting from the Add-ons tab in HAAS always fixes it, but I should be able to detect when it happens when "light.tempur_pedic_safety_lights" is not true or false, i.e., unavailable.
What I don't know how to do is how to restart that service. Does anybody have experience in restarting add-ons from MSR?

Hi!
Is it possible to generate two additional log files, the first being the replica of what is displayed on screen by the Rule History widgets and the other with Recently Changed Entities?
And could I configure the generation of one file per day, and delete the older ones? For example, store the last 5 days?
And being more ambitious, does Windget have an icon to open these TXT files in the navigated?
Well, we're approaching Christmas, so here's my request to Santa Claus @toggledbits 🙂
Hi @toggledbits
I'm working on a controller to generate llm response from a prompt in reactor. I have http response coming thru an http request action at the moment, capturing the response inside a local variable. So, it's practically sync.
I want to create a controller, so I don't have to rely on a proxy (and have a simpler architecture), and duplicate absurd http actions, but AFAIK in the current implementation, actions are async only. But if I have multiple requests going on, I cannot be sure what it's really inside an attribute. I also thought that something like a correlation id when sending the request could be used to identity multiple responses, but I wanted to double check with you before starting with something too complicated. I also noticed that some actions in home assistant (ie forecast) are sync and I'm wondering if you have any plan or hint to address this situation. Thanks.
Thanks.
@togglebits I am curious as to why the tilt_sensor.state (primary) = NULL. I believe it should show true or false. I have to use binary_sensor.state instead in my rules.
Again, not sure if this is related to Reactor/ZwaveJSController implementation or the actual Z-Wave JS UI docker version. I have copied, below, the attributes of the tilt sensor in hopes it can help.
Thanks in advance.

[ZwaveJS] Position and cover not working for Roller Shutter 1/2/3
-
That did the trick. Two things.
position.valueis now incosistent, whereas dimming.level was ok before. I tried to set node 4 to .9, and it's now reporting .31. A refresh is updating the position (to .91), but nowpower_switch.state=null.power_sensor.valueis still 0. -
What are you comparing it to? For node 4, the last data you show have the Meter class value (meterType 1, property
value, propertyKey 66049) at 0, and the Multilevel Sensor withsensorType=4 (Power) also 0. What are you expecting the value to be? Again, can you show more context, too? Post all the attributes? These things are moving targets, so more data is better than less. -
I'm getting the values from ZWaveJS UI and checking on the reported values from MSR:
Position
Watts reading seems to be more related to the device not refreshing itself (or refreshing randomly), as it was doing on Vera. I'll keep debugging the ZWaveJS part, since it seems that if I refresh the device, the values is passed onto Reactor.
Thanks for the help!
-
Sorry, but the image looks like you're showing position, not watts. I would like to understand which of the two power values provided by the device you are trying to reconcile.
That said, a position of 0.91 would be correct, as the scale of the
position.valueattribute in Reactor is 0.0 to 1.0, computed from the device range of 0 to 99 (90/99 = 0.91 rounded to two digits). -

no screenshot. As I've said, I'm finding that the device is not reporting that well. I'm 100% sure it was OK under Vera, and maybe it was part of the custom code they wrote for the device, Idk.

ok, but I've asked for 0.90 via Reactor and I got 0.91 inside Reactor and 0.90 inside ZWaveJS. Imagine something that tries to position the device until it is OK...
-
The rounding is a function of the scaling.
I believe I mentioned in another thread that comparing equality of floating point numbers is a well-known Bad Idea in pretty much all programming languages.
The raw value is always available in the
x_extended attributes. -
I can change it, but it may be a breaking change for all users at this point. Not something to be taken lightly. I have considered it.
I still don't have enough information from you to do anything about the power issue, assuming there still is one.

No problem, I found it strange and I was reporting. It's also strange 'cause after a refresh the value from the controller is overwritten.

Yes, but it's zwavejs that's not updating. I suspect Vera was doing some magic behind the scene. I'll keep watching it, now that the new system is almost stable.
-
@therealdb said in [ZwaveJS] Position and cover not working for Roller Shutter 1/2/3:
Yes, but it's zwavejs that's not updating.
I see. I guess I didn't understand that before. OK. Let me know if you figure anything out that helps. There may be something I can bolt on to help with that. There do seem to be delta-sensitivity configuration settings on the device. I wonder if those are related?
So for the moment, have we covered all the hot-button items? Anything I haven't addressed yet?
-

Maybe. I'm experimenting with parameter and I'll report back. I still have a couple of strange behaviors to fix before I could dedicate to fine tuning.

Yes, the only thing pending is tilt position. I managed to use it via raw ZWave commands, but I think it could useful to have a separate endpoint for that. RS 3 and 4 are already exposing multiple endpoints, where the first is controlling the blind and the second the lamellas (and root does nothing).
Unfortunately, those from Fibaro are the only ZWave devices in Europe that are supporting lamellas. I'm sure eventually Shelly will catchup with its new ZWave series from Qubino and I'll eventually replace my RS2s, since they're not ZWave+ and are 8+ years old (I bought them for the old house, where I started with just roller shutters, so they served their purpose well).
-

OK. I've lost the thread there. What's the problem with tilt at this point? In my bench-top use, changes in the Z-Wave reports feed to the position attribute correctly, so I'm not clear where the issue remains.
-
Sorry, I was referring to this thread: https://smarthome.community/topic/1576/zwavejs-venetian-blind-tilt-for-fibaro-roller-shutters-2-fgr222/4
-
ok, meter fixed. I don't know how it worked all these years, but the associations of device 4 were completely wrong (assigned to a non-existence device), thus it was somewhat working on Vera. Go figure. I reset the values and now it's reporting ok.
The very last thing about the device is that, after configuring a parameter, they support scene activation v0 and it would be nice to have a separate scene device, as in the switch. Otherwise, I'll simply go with
x_zwave_values. Thanks. -
Try activating the central scene on the device. Since these values are events, they aren't created until the first event is received. You may also need to refresh the browser, or at least "stimulate" the redraw of the entity list (by modifying the filters, etc.).
