[MSR] Native fan capabilty
therealdbT
Nothing more to add. I see we have hvac_blower, but, anyway, maybe a native fan on the same assumptions of the fan from HASS could be reasonable. I have a couple of them. ie, this is from ESPHome via HASS. x_hass.domain="fan" x_hass.entity_id="fan.kitchen_seashell_hood_ventilation_fan" x_hass.floor_id=null x_hass.services=["fan","esphome"] x_hass.source="esphome" x_hass.state="off" x_hass_attr.friendly_name="Seashell Hood Ventilation Fan" x_hass_attr.percentage=50 x_hass_attr.percentage_step=25 x_hass_attr.preset_mode="" x_hass_attr.preset_modes=[] x_hass_attr.supported_features=49 Thanks.

[MSR] Rule do not fire

Rule condition shows TRUE in UI but Rule never transitions to SET — survives full restart
N
Build: latest-26221-b25bb3e3, Docker on Synology. Hi, I have a Rule whose Trigger/Constraints reference other Rules via Rule State ... is TRUE. At some point it stops firing. Expanding the rule's condition tree in the UI shows every Trigger and Constraint condition green/TRUE — confirmed live by walking into the room and watching Motion go true in real time. Rule History shows no new SET, just old reset entries. Tried, on the same rule, same evening: recreating the trigger conditions with fresh IDs, recreating the constraint conditions with fresh IDs (flat and wrapped in a new Group — wrapping in a Group produced one SET, but it didn't reproduce on repeat attempts with the same structure), and finally a full container restart with a verified-correct saved rule. Still no SET, even with a fresh live motion event right after the restart. Separately, I found that this rule (and its 10 per-room clones) share identical internal condition/group IDs with each other — leftover from a batch clone done months ago, never regenerated. Not sure if that's related, since fixing the IDs didn't reliably fix the symptom either. Has anyone seen a Rule State condition show TRUE in the UI without the Rule ever producing a SET, surviving a clean restart? Thanks in advance

DynamicGroupController and attributes
therealdbT
Hey @toggledbits I'm back to trying to optimize a couple of things based on dynamic group. First of all, I think I found a typo in the doc: primary_attribute: "binary_sensor.state" primary_attribute_value: | d = false; each id in members: d = getEntity(id)?.attributes?.power_switch?.state or d, d I think the correct code snippet is d = false, All that said, my use case for dynamic groups is to group 3 different climate devices, so I could easily command them at the same time. Commands are good, but sometimes I want to check if any of the devices are on, and that's easily done with a similar snippet as the one you have in the docs. But this is limited to the primary attribute, while I want to have any of the attributes in the group to be driven by a similar logic (while all are null in the group). ie, access hvac_control.mode and see if any of the unit is set to cool, or heat. Is that possible, without re-defining an expression in each of my rules? Thanks!

Reactor (Multi-System/Multi-Hub) Announcements
toggledbitsT
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.

Unofficial thread for compatibility
tunnusT
As there are statements about compatibility for home assistant versions in MSR new version announcements (e.g. "HassController: Bless Hass to 2025.7.3"), I thought it would be good idea to track other controllers as well. As an example, I can confirm that build "latest-25208-c53e8513" works with Hubitat Elevation C-8 platform version 2.4.2.134 using Maker API. Updates: (the latest versions first in the list) OK: build "latest-25264-2fbe9217" with Hubitat C-8 platform v. 2.4.3.123

Ooops - Deleted Reactor Ex Machina II
R
I accidentally deleted Reactor Ex Machina II (REM II) from my Reactor rules. I tried to recover it by deleting the .json and .dval in the Rules subdirectory and then recreating it from Togglebits original posting, but that did not work. Does anyone know how to recover REM ll ?

[Solved] DynamicGroupController updating members issue
CrilleC
Edit: Solved in latest-26221. Bare-metal latest-26193 I have this group: "OKforLarm": name: OK för Larm select: - include_controller: vera - include_capability: door_sensor filter_expression: entity.attributes.door_sensor.state It contains the entities I expect but behaves a bit odd. When I open vera>device_10097 the entity attribute door_sensor.state changes to true but it won't show up as member in the group, when I also open vera>device_10095 they both shows as members and when I close vera>device_10095 it disappear from the group but when I close vera>device_10097 it lingers in the group until I restart Reactor.

[MSR] Copy&past of actions and/or drag&drop between set/reset
therealdbT
Hey @toggledbits One thing that bothers me while doing work on new systems/new features, is that I cannot copy&paste actions, and I cannot drag&drop between set and resets. #1 is for when I want to copy an action between different rules opened in two separate browser windows, while #2 is when I just need to flip a bunch of actions in the reset, or move some logic back and forth. Both will be appreciated, but I understand the technical challenges. Thanks!

Upgrade advice - upgrade from aarch64 to ARM64 image
T
I'm currently on version 26011. I understand that the aarch64 image is no longer supported. So, I therefore need to update to the ARM64 image. Can anyone possibly suggest how I update my docker compose.yaml file (see below). Ideally I'd like to keep my existing reactions etc. rather than start from scratch. # Multi-System Reactor template docker-compose.yml (version 22160) # # Change the lines indicated by "DO"... # services: reactor: container_name: reactor environment: # DO change the TZ: line to set your local time zone. # See valid TZ list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones TZ: GB # # DO NOT change this path.

    Hi ,
    I'm on
    -Reactor (Multi-hub) latest-25067-62e21a2d
    -Docker on Synology NAS
    -ZWaveJSUI 9.31.0.6c80945

    Problem with ZwaveJSUI:
    When I try to change color to a bulb RGBWW, it doesn't change to the RGB color and the bulb remains warm or cold white.
    I tryed with Zipato RGBW Bulb V2 RGBWE2, Hank Bulb HKZW-RGB01, Aentec 6 A-ZWA002, so seems that it happens with all RGBWW bulb with reactor/zwavejsui.

    I'm using from reator the entity action: "rgb_color.set" and "rgb_color.set_rgb".
    After I send the reactor command, It changes in zwavejsui the rgb settings but doesn't put the white channel to "0", so the prevalent channel remains warm/cold White and the bulb doesn't change into the rgb color.

    This is the status of the bulb in zwavejsui after "rgb_color.set" (235,33,33,) and the bulb is still warmWhite.

    x_zwave_values.Color_Switch_currentColor={"warmWhite":204,"coldWhite":0,"red":235,"green":33,"blue":33}
    

    The "cold white" and "warm white" settings interfer with the rgb color settings.

    Reactor can change bulb colors with rgb_color set — (value, ui8, 0x000000 to 0xffffff) or rgb_color set_rgb — (red, green, blue, all ui1, 0 to 255) but if warm or cold white
    are not to "0", zwavejsui doesn't change them and I can't find a way to change into rgb or from rgb back to warm white.

    So if I use from reactor: rgb_color set_rgb — (235,33,33) in zwavejsui I have

    x_zwave_values.Color_Switch_targetColor={"red":235,"green":33,"blue":33}

    └──coldWhite: 0
    └──red: 235
    └──green: 33
    └──blue: 33
    └─propertyName: currentColor
    

    In zwavejsui, the bulb changes rgb set but warm White remains to "204" and the bulb remais on warm White channel bacause is prevalent on rgb set.

    x_zwave_values.Color_Switch_currentColor_0=204
    x_zwave_values.Color_Switch_currentColor_1=0
    x_zwave_values.Color_Switch_currentColor_2=235
    x_zwave_values.Color_Switch_currentColor_3=33
    x_zwave_values.Color_Switch_currentColor_4=33
    

    Is it possible to targetColor also for "warmWhite" and "coldWhite" and have something similar to this?

    x_zwave_values.Color_Switch_targetColor={"warmWhite":0,"coldWhite":0,"red":235,"green":33,"blue":33}
    

    Thanks in advance.

      Please update this report with more details and specifics. Honestly, I can't parse what is working and what is not from your submission so far. I have no idea what a "scope" is. I don't have this device, so if it's something specific to the device, you'll need to include information about that. Please edit t he head post rather than adding a reply here, preferably.

        Thanks for the update. When I read this, I'm reading that Reactor is operating correctly, doing the same thing that ZWaveJS UI is doing when you change the RGB color, you just want an additional function to be able to change both the RGB and white (one or two channels) at the same time?

        If that's not correct, bring me up to speed, and also copy and paste the full attributes for a representative entity (there's a button in the entity detail pane to copy all attributes shown).

          Correct! Without this function, I don't know how to make the bulb RGBWW work properly.

                You will not be able to set these in one action. You will need to set x_zwave_values.Color_Switch_targetColor_0 to 0 in another action to turn the warm white channel off, and likewise x_zwave_values.Color_Switch_targetColor_1 to 0 to turn off the cold white channel. The intensity of these channels can be set by setting other values up to 255.

                It should be possible to set x_zwave_values.Color_Switch_targetColor with a JSON string, but that is not currently supported in ZWaveJSController. That would allow you to set everything at once. I will work on it.

                  Hi, thank you for the new update and I'm testing it under:

                  Reactor build 25082
                  ZWaveJSController build 25082
                  -Docker on Synology NAS
                  -ZWaveJSUI 10.1.3

                  Trying with these values but nothing happens (in zwavejs events and in reactor logs). Am I doing something wrong with JSON string value fields?

                    First, always look at the logs. I'm 100% certain that "nothing happens" isn't what's in the logs.

                    It looks like the device has separate targetValue values for the white channels, so you may just need to use those. That means for red, green, and blue, you'll use targetValue for the property with a JSON object, but leave the propertyKey blank. For warm white, you use property targetValue with propertyKey zero (0), and for cold white you'll use propertyKey one (1).

                    Edit: look at the logs
