I'm trying to tie the dimmer level of a dimmer switch to the dimmer level of a dimmable device (fan canopy light controller). In the triggers section of the rule I can select "dimming.level changes" as the condition, and I can get said dimming level in an expression that I then use to set the dimming.set attribute of the dimming device in the Set Reaction section, but this only works when going from 0--><some value>. When going from <some value> --> <some other value> or <some value>-->0, this does not work, because the rule is already set (it went true with the first change, and hasn't gone false yet - this is expected behavior as per the documentation)
I can fix the <some value>-->0 issue by setting the Reset Reaction, but how can I get the rule to run - and set the entity dimming level - every time the switch value changes?
(I tired to upload a screen shot of what I have, but I just kept getting errors)
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.

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
Screenshot 2023-11-29 114149.jpg
Living Room Light Off
Screenshot 2023-11-29 114451.jpg
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.

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.
Reactor version 23302
ZWaveJSController version 23254
Z-Wave JS UI version 9.3.0.724519f

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
@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?
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.Hi @toggledbits
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.

Here's my second attempt at a Reactor Controller, this time to integrate LG TVs:

Reactor controller for LG TV (webos). Contribute to dbochicchio/reactor-lgtv development by creating an account on GitHub.
Standard capabilities are provided and TV volume, mute and switch status are controllable.
There's also an action to send toast notifications on your TV.
webos 5+ is required.
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.
Zen32 question
-
Am using one of the buttons in the Zen32 to toggle the ceiling light in my master bedroom.
Rule set is pretty basic"
Have determined (with a lot of head scratching) that the 1 second delay is required on the button change for the reaction to run.
Without the 1 second delay, the reaction goes true but the set reaction does not run. Even if the button state is already tripped.
Easy work around, but is that by design or a bug?
-
Is there anything (at all, even just a comment) in the Reset reaction?
-
OK. Let's unravel for a minute.
First, the pulse from changes is very short, and you will not usually see it in the UI without a delay. Adding a delay reset helps this, at the expense of losing responsiveness if the button is hit several times. This may be OK with the ZEN32, because it allows double, triple, quadruple and quintuple presses, so it has a delay of its own to detect that. But in reality, you don't need any delay in Reactor.
I was not suggesting you add actions to the reset; I was actually asking to make sure you didn't, because having them will actually work against you. You don't want to do that. Without the delay, or even with a short delay, there's a high likelihood that you will make the changes condition resetting itself (and thus its parent rule going back to RESET) preempt the SET reaction (because that's what happens when the RESET reaction isn't completely empty) and your SET reaction won't finish.
Also you may be experiencing an artifact of the way toggle.toggle is implemented. There is no toggle command in Z-Wave, so ZWaveJSController simulates it by looking at the current state of the target device and telling it to go opposite -- off if it's currently on, on if it's currently off. The issue, though, is that it can take from a few milliseconds to several seconds for the state of the Reactor switch entity to update, and this is highly dependent on the quality of your mesh as always. So if you're hitting the buttons fast, the entity states may not be fully caught up, and so it won't send the right on/off to the device. That's just a function of the responsiveness of the mesh and the connection between the controller, zwave-js and Reactor, all of which add latency. Not much to do there but take it as it comes.
Rather than use toggle.toggle, what I use in testing is a simple local variable on the rule as a counter that I increment in the SET reaction every time a button press is detected. This makes it very easy to tell if the changes is working, as the feedback is immediate and not reliant on any external hub, service, or device performance.
The ZEN32 is also not a perfect device. There is at least one firmware update for it that has been published that I am aware of, and there is discussion in various forums about bugs that people hope will soon lead to another. In my own experience, I can make it stop updating by pressing buttons too quickly. I have found that if I press a button again while its LED is blinking (during transmit of the previous press), about half the time the device will stop sending updates for that button. I don't need Reactor to see this, I can see it in the zwave-js logs and message stream (or lack thereof). It corrects itself usually after a few seconds, so I imagine something inside the ZEN32 gets in some state that times out after that period. So that also could be happening to you and befuddling your testing. Hopefully they find and fix whatever that is, but of course, it will require you to update the firmware on your ZEN32 when they do, which is a bit of a pain. That's a shame, really, because in terms of WAF, anything that makes buttons stop working, even briefly, is a non-starter for widespread use in my house.

Hi Patrick,
Couple questions on the ZEN32's. Since the 2002.3.x upgrade of HA my zwaveJS2mqtt has been very unstable, especially with the multi tap scenes on the ZEN32. They usually work for a period of time following a reboot and then become unresponsive at some point. Haven't been able to nail down a time frame on how long it runs till becoming unstable.
Currently working right now so I cannot get you any info.
Are you and I the only users in your test group using Zen32's? If not, anyone else seeing stability issues? -
HA has nothing to do with ZWave-JS, except for the fact that it uses it, but that has nothing to do with ZWaveJSController and what Reactor may see and do with those devices. Based on the above and your other post, I'm not clear if we're talking about entities that are coming from your HassController instance or your ZWaveJSController instance. More information/clarification is required here.
They usually work for a period of time following a reboot and then become unresponsive at some point.
Again, it's not clear to me what you are rebooting (Hass? zwavejs2mqtt? Reactor? ZEN32 itself?). And not clear what is unresponsive.
Are you and I the only users in your test group using Zen32's?
Based on the data, I think that's the case. I am using ZEN32s directly sourced from ZWaveJSController, though, having nothing to do with Hass, and having no issues other than those I have previously described to you, which are a result of the ZEN32 not sending data to the mesh temporarily under certain conditions. And that is only temporary and the ZEN32 recovers in 10-15 seconds.
EDIT: I just checked that last data update I have from your system, and the ZEN32 nodes 36 and 45 are both marked dead as of the moment that snapshot was taken. I'm guessing you rebooted zwavejs2mqtt and then immediately rebooted Reactor? That Reactor reboot would be around 5:30PM Eastern time/22:30GMT yesterday 3/8?
EDIT 2: Are you on the new 22067 build? If not, what build are you running?
-
Hey Patrick,
My setup for the ZEN32's is I use MSR to monitor zwavejs button.state(primary) for the string value with an AND condition to monitor zwavejs button.since for any changes. Works for awhile and then no response. When I look at it in MSR Entities nothing is changing on the entity for the button I am pressing. I usually reboot the HA box and it works for awhile. sometimes, though not all, MSR status reports zwavejs down though not always. -
@rogero See my other comment in your other thread. Based on what you've said there, it seems like you are running Hass with ZWave.me and a Razberry card, and trying to run zwavejs2mqtt at the same time interfacing to the same card? That sounds to me like a dog that won't hunt (i.e. two different interfaces wrestling for control of the same card seems like it's doomed to failure).
-
@RogerO OK. Since I'm squared away on the ZWave.me/zwavejs issue (you're using a ZWave.me card/hardware, but running only zwavejs software, all good)...
On the Z-Wave data from your system received yesterday mentioned above in my edit... the ZEN32s were not ready (interview completed) when ZWaveJSController connected to zwavejs. That would suggest either (a) you had just rebooted zwavejs and Reactor together (one immediately after the other), or (b) you have a serious mesh issue and initialization of the ZEN32s is taking a long time (maybe both). Either way, I can see how there's an opportunity for ZWaveJSController to miss setting up the update of some device values, because zwavejs doesn't transmit any values if the device isn't fully ready, so I've fixed that and there's now a 22068 build available for download. My zwavejs runs for days/weeks and doesn't crash, and I rarely restart it, so it's almost always in a state of readiness with all devices interviewed when I restart Reactor (which I do a lot during development) — I would not often see the conditions your data file was suggesting, and that would account for the difference in experience with this device. But that's now handled. I'm curious to hear if your ZEN32s improve on this version.
