Hi,
For years I have been using a rule that uses motion detection to maintain or turn on a light. For a while now, I noticed a significant delay (20 to 30 sec.) between the motion detection and the light coming on.
Here is my setup:
I am running the docker Home assistant 2023.11.3 and MSR 23302 on a Raspberry Pi 4 with raspian 64 bit. Motion sensor are coming from my DSC alarm panel via the HA Envisalink integration. The lights switch are zwave and are handled by HA via zwave-JS-UI.
I am not a software developper nor a specialist but here is, based on the log files of HA, MSR and zwavejs, the sequence of event as I understand it, on Nov 28 :
03:41:48 Home assistant sensor detect the motion. (from HA sensor log)
03:41:48 Reactor log report the "Living Rule Light On Set"
03:42:18 Both the zwavejsui and zwavejs logs show the light activation requests/commands
This is a delay of a little more than 30 ses between time that MSR activate the rule and zwavejs receive the request to turn on the light.
When I look at the detailed MSR logs, I can see that there is some time between the initial rule activation and its completion that correspond to the time line above. Again, without understanding everyting, the delay seemed to be coming from MSR (Or my rules/configuration). Here's the MSR Log:
Here are the 2 Rules that control the light:
Living Room Light On

Living Room Light Off

This is not a major issue but it is a change from the initial behaviur I was having.
Thanks in advance
Hello all, I recently installed a Zooz ZEN 32 scene controller and was looking for some guidance on how I could use a button press as a trigger in MSR. The scene controller has a total of 5 buttons that can activate scenes based on single press, double press, triple till 5 presses and also a press and hold. Currently in MSR I see an entity for the scene controller itself and separate entities for each button.
Using the MSR native Z wave controller I can see the button.state (shows if it was pressed single double...) and button.since which shows the last time the button was pressed. The issue with the button.state is that say I press the scene controller button once its state is single but it never "resets" it's state will remain single. So if I press the button again the trigger won't work (pulse action won't work here because the state never changes).
Going through HA similar issue but instead the x_hass.state is used and the number pertains to how many presses 0 means one press, 3 means 2 presses and so on. But again the x_hass.state never resets to an "off" state so retriggering the rule will not work if you press the button again.
Before I tackle this in other ways using separate rules, input booleans and expressions is there any other way I can go about this? To me I need to trigger that is something like button_pressed.single but I don't see that option.
No logs since there is technically no issues and no real examples since I am stuck at the triggers part lol.

Z Wave 0.1.23194
HA 2023.11.2
Beginning with the next Reactor release, there will be some dependency changes and new deprecations.
These apply to users on bare-metal installs only. If you are running Reactor in a docker container, the following does not apply to you — the container supplies its own dependencies and will be up-to-date.
All versions of nodejs prior to 18 are now end-of-life (no maintenance), so starting with the next Reactor build, they are deprecated for use with Reactor; they will continue to work until March 1 2024 (about 3 months from now), so you need to upgrade before that date. The recommended version of nodejs is 20, which is the current long-term support (LTS) version (EOL in mid-2026). Version 18 is the prior LTS version and still supported (by OpenJS Foundation and Reactor) until mid-2025, so it's a good fallback if you have issues getting version 20 running. As of this writing, the current 20 is 20.10.0, and the current 18 is 18.18.2. Both have been tested with Reactor 23302.
Now, nodejs version 20.9.0 seems to have dependencies that are not easily resolved on Raspberry Pi OS (formerly Raspbian) Buster (Debian 10). If you are using an RPi running Buster, you should select nodejs 18. That gives you until mid-2025 to upgrade both nodejs and the RPi OS to a more modern version (the current RPi OS is bookworm, Debian 12, 64-bit). The tools/rpi-install.sh script will be enhanced for the next build to try to discern what is reasonable for your system and make the appropriate upgrades; it is safe to run even on a current Reactor install.
If you are running an OS other than Raspberry Pi OS, try for nodejs 20, but use 18 as a fallback if you can't get it installed and running.
@togglebits I have another one for you.
HASS controller shows hvac_control.state="heating, cooling or idle".
ZWaveJSController controller shows hvac_control.state="heat, cool, or idle"
I believe hvac_control.state="heating, cooling or idle" should be what the ZWaveJSController should show.
"heat", "cool" or "off" are values assigned to the hvac_control.mode attribute.
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 thermostat in hopes it can help.
Thanks in advance.

Certain MSR updates are irrelevant for some users (e.g. only Hass related changes when you are not using one), so I was wondering if there could be a dismiss (firmware) feature similar to Hubitat?
Then when you'll use "dismiss", a blue checkmark would disappear until there's a new firmware.
Noticed that if I try to use a case statement, I'll have to have multiple when clauses, otherwise I'll get syntax error.
(I tried to include a screenshot, but got parse error from the forum...)
The following works:
case when condition == true: "This is true" when condition == false: "Now it is false" else "Something else" endBut this will end up with syntax error:
case when condition == true: "This is true" else "Something else" endUsing build 23242 on Docker
When doing something like curl -o - 'http://localhost:8111/api/v1/entity/ezlo>device_61baf509129e0725bd9f80e1/attribute/dimming.level' I get a response with current dimming level for example "0.6"
but curl -o - 'http://localhost:8111/api/v1/entity/ezlo>device_61baf509129e0725bd9f80e1/perform/dimming.set?level=0.8' sets the dimming level to 0.8 but gives no response which causes the connection to eventually timeout.
Doing it in a browser performs the action but leaves the tab with a spinning wheel of a loading page.
Is this expected behavior?
Edit: Solved in build 22142
Hi @toggledbits
Apparently, there have been some changes to the CallMeBot interface, as the service recently stopped working for me. I've tried several configurations, and none of the ones below are working.

Looking at the action log, I see that it starts, runs and finishes without any problems.

@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.

I have just noticed that two of my z-wave switches, Inovelli LZW31 and Aeotec ZWA037, although responding correctly to commands such as (turning on the switch, changing LED color, etc.), are not displaying the right power_switch.state when turned ON. All other attributes are showing proper values.
Example when I turn on either switches,
In Home Assistant (hass), the power_switch.state = true while in ZWaveJSController (zwavejs), the power_switch.state = false.

Some background
I have two simple rules that will toggle my carport's down lights depending on outdoor brightness when I open the motorized sliding gate. I.e. if the brightness is 1500 lux or less and the gate is opened, the down lights will be switched on, and when the gate is closed, the lights will switch off after 3 minutes. Pretty simple 'coming home' functionality so to speak.
Here's the switch off rule showing the 'hard coded' thresholds
Screenshot from 2023-10-31 18-44-46.png
The problem
I would like to parameterize the lux and switch off delay using entities. I bet the lux threshold can be done with local expressions the same way I do my WC background music scheduling:
But the since I'm using the Condition must be sustained for functionality for the switch off rule, I have no idea how to parameterize that with some entity value.
So my question is that is it even possible to do this using entities or could there some other way to accomplish the same functionality? In this example it's the sustain -value but I might need same kind of parameterization for the delay reset also.
I have to go with entities, since my own HA system will provide the threshold values for the MSR through the MQTTController.
Help would be appreciated @toggledbits

So I have a strange one here and I don't know if there is a way to do this or not. I have blue iris triggering a vera virtual switch when AI detects motion on my front porch. Reactor then triggers the light, this works perfect. I want to shut the light off when there is no motion, this also works perfect. What I am having am issue with is when someone turns on the light manually I don't want it to turn off after motion is detected. Example: we are expecting a pizza so we turn on the porch light. 5 min later amazon delivers a package, trips motion. 10 min later Reactor is going to turn off the light. If I manually turn on the light before motion is detected I do not want reactor to turn it off. For the life of me I cannot figure the logic out. Does anyone have any ideas?

Is there any way that in the trigger the Varable Value could select the desired part of the array?
For example, I could have a global variable VarTEST$[Part1, Part2, Part3] like this: ${{ [TestText, 5, 3] }}. Use the Variable Value to validate a VarTEST[Part2] == 5 trigger.
What am I doing today? I've defined 3 global variables:
3ae76d20-ffce-4f66-9002-1b4d6cc7c3c3-image.png
And I validate each variable.
3bcc1d62-2ce1-41ca-9f00-f98578c0d597-image.png
In short, I would like to have a global variable of the array type, and be able to select which element of the array I would use for validation in a trigger.
Thanks
Hello all I am trying to run the service call browser_mod.popup from MSR to HA. If I enter the service data in YAML like this:

Here is a snippet of the reactor log, no errors that I see just looks like the target info isn't being passed on.

I installed a new iblind this evening and it is appearing in ZWaveJS. It is operational thru Home Assistant just fine. It is operational thru the HA ZwaveJS plugin just fine.
Where it is non-responsive is in MSR for some reason. The entities are there. Adding the node to a Reaction and then attempting to run said Reaction nets me this:

I tried deleting all Entities associated with this device from MSR and then refreshing ZWaveJS in Home Assistant and restarting MSR - the Entities return but in the same state/s.
Admittedly, it's been a very long three weeks at work - I could have missed something obvious during setup but I sure can't figure what it is.
Hi @toggledbits
I'm trying to use OWM, apparently, I receive the correct information, but after a while, the MSR disconnects.

Restart Reactor option not working on QNAP docker
-
Hi @toggledbits here is the thread to discuss the restart issue with MSR as discussed.
When I use the Tools > Restart Reactor button in the UI it shuts down reactor successfully but doesn't restart. It doesn't bother me as I can easily restart it manually via the docker UI, but thought it would be still worth posting it if anyone else has the same issue, or if you want to look into it.
I'm running MSR using the latest-generic-amd64 docker image on a QNAP NAS via the standard docker implementation (container station).
-
That tool can only stop MSR. It relies on the OS (or in this case, docker) to restart the container when it sees it has stopped.
Confirm that "Auto Start" is turned on for your container in its settings. This may not be enough for QNAP though. I did some Googling, and there is a lot of discussion going back some time that the UI for Container Station has no real equivalent for docker's "--restart" option to set the restart policy for the container. Users suggest starting up the container from the command line (once you've done it once, it sticks in docker's configuration).
See:
- https://forum.qnap.com/viewtopic.php?t=143609
- https://www.reddit.com/r/qnap/comments/agsnc6/container_station_autorestart_after_unexpected/
- https://docs.docker.com/config/containers/start-containers-automatically/
Ugh. This makes QNAP/Container Station much more difficult (higher learning curve, more exotic commands required to get started). That puts it (way) down my list for recommended platforms.
-
Ah, now that I know the button is just shutting down MSR and not trying to actually restart it that explains what's happening. I haven't had much luck with the auto start even though it's turned on so I just do a manual restart when needed. Thanks for suggesting some links, but don't worry about looking into it any further. I'm not worried about it, but it's good to have it documented here if anyone else comes across it in the future.
Might be handy to add something to the documentation about what the button actually does when you get to updating the Tools section.
-
The thing is, it works correctly on Synology, or under other docker installations, because the restart policy can be defined. This is a QNAP limitation, so the fact that it doesn't work on QNAP (specifically Container Station UI) is all that's to be documented, and if the links are to be believed, using the command line to create and start the container rather than Container Station, it then works fine. It would be good to have confirmation of that.
-
If I get some time I'll test it for you and let you know via this thread, but I've made a point with this NAS of not doing anything in the command line because I want to keep it as out of the box and standard as possible. I know it's not hard, but my last NAS was basically all command line and a lot of tweaking which made for some interesting times during some upgrades so this time I'm keeping it all standard and working around any limitations.
For the documentation I wasn't suggesting you document specific issues with platforms, just what the button actually does which would help anyone in the future if they were wondering what was happening. It maybe just me, but I wouldn't have bothered to ask about this if I'd realised that the restart was an OS thing, not part of the button function. Eg: The restart reactor button shuts down reactor (or the container) and the OS is then responsible for automatically restarting MSR using whatever specific method is supported.
Anyway, coming from Reactor on Vera I'm very happy with MSR so far and this was just a suggestion.
-
Nice to know that "Restart Reactor" under tools shuts Reactor down and then relies on the host to restart it. Nice to know that QNAP is not behaving. I restart on the QNAP GUI after I make configuration changes. I am using QNAP because it is what I have so this would be good info for someone looking for a NAS to run Reactor on.
