@crille great job!! I was hoping for someone to do the translation into swedish. English works just fine, but I wouldn't mind having it in swedish. (Gärna på bred småländska )

Hello Everyone -
I have a peculiar situation that I'm hoping to get some help with.
Running Vera which is still handling my Zwave, MySensors, Zigbee, and still a balance of my Reactors.
However, I've also been running MSR for several months in preparation for an eventual move off of Vera.
Vera had one of its meltdowns this morning related to my Opensprinkler plug in.
After getting that straightened out, I added the OpenSprinkler plugin to HAAS and that's when I started having issues.
My existing MSR reactors (even simple ones) don't seem to fire their reactions. I can see the conditions go "true". If I manually fire the Reaction, it works fine.
I do see this a lot in the logs:
[1.0.2-21350]2022-05-16T19:02:44.518Z <Rule:INFO> Rule#rule-460 evaluation in progress; waiting for completion(Various rules - 460 is just an example)
Is there anything I can do to further troubleshoot?

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. -
My MSR has been working flawlessly until a couple of days ago when it stopped sending Telegram Messages (or should I say they stopped getting through!). I have updated to MSR version 22004. The reactor.log is updating and is showing no errors:

I am running MSR on my QNAP network attached storage. Any assistance would be appreciated.
Just another question...... I would like to post in the HOME HARDWARE VERA section of Smarthome, but I do not have the option to set up a new post. Do I need to request access for this?

I've just started to look at HASS UI, and have seen enough to see that it has an infinite number of ways to show enitites and devices in all forms and shapes.. But for starters i'd like to have something familiar, so how do i go about getting a sidebar for rooms like in openluup?
I know i can put them in the actual left sidebar, but i'd prefer to keep that for configuration pages..
on each room page i'd like to sort the lights, the heaters, the sensors together, and i saw somewhere that HASS will do that for you if you play your cards (pun) right.. can't find it again now..
Any pointers to a beginner?

Which config file needs editing to apply a certificate? Does it use the computer certificate store or it's own store (e.g. pem files)The reason I want to achieve this, other than the general goodness of having everything I can in TLS is that I have Reactor as an IFRAME in my HASS console and as HASS is HTTPS and Reactor is HTTP then the iframe refuses to open.

Hi Patrick,
Running HASS 2022.5.3
MSR zwavejs-22126-834c3e9Seeing weird behavior in MSR with regards to my Zen32's. Not sure how to capture info that might be relevent but will describe what I am seeing.
In the example below I pressed scene 001 4 times. It flashed and changed the primary value to "4". The remaining buttons were previously showing the PV as "double" I pushed each button one time and they flashed and displayed the PV as 4.
zen32.JPGIn the zwavejs2mqtt debug screen that sequence looks like this.
2022-05-10 09:38:44.078 INFO ZWAVE: Node 45: value notification: 91-0-scene-001 5 2022-05-10T16:38:44.081Z CNTRLR « [Node 045] received CentralScene notification { "nodeId": 45, "ccId": "Central Scene", "ccCommand": "0x03", "payload": "0x898501" } 2022-05-10 09:38:45.982 INFO ZWAVE: Node 45: value notification: 91-0-scene-002 0 2022-05-10T16:38:45.984Z CNTRLR « [Node 045] received CentralScene notification { "nodeId": 45, "ccId": "Central Scene", "ccCommand": "0x03", "payload": "0x8a8002" } 2022-05-10 09:38:47.807 INFO ZWAVE: Node 45: value notification: 91-0-scene-003 0 2022-05-10T16:38:47.810Z CNTRLR « [Node 045] received CentralScene notification { "nodeId": 45, "ccId": "Central Scene", "ccCommand": "0x03", "payload": "0x8b8003" } 2022-05-10 09:38:48.858 INFO ZWAVE: Node 45: value notification: 91-0-scene-004 0 2022-05-10T16:38:48.861Z CNTRLR « [Node 045] received CentralScene notification { "nodeId": 45, "ccId": "Central Scene", "ccCommand": "0x03", "payload": "0x8c8004" }Let me know what other info you would like me to supply.
I have played around with a bunch of other key stroke combo's and it looks like buttons 2-5 display what ever button 1 is set to.
Have tested this on 4 different ZEN32's and it is same on all. -
Running zwavejs-22118-baab576 in MSR, HASSOS 2022.5.1
Due to an unreported issue in HASS, when I upgraded the 2022.5 yesterday, it dropped ZwaveJS2MQTT from my HASSOS build. Finally got it reinstalled and it appears to be working the way it was previously.
MSR is now showing zwavejs down and in entities, nothing is updating.Seeing this in the logs:
ZWaveJSController#zwavejs ws_open caught [Error]Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 192.168.0.16:3000Are there additional steps needed that are not mentioned in the manual?
At a loss to figure out what is causing issue. -
....but not what you think, probably.
I doubt there's an answer here to this, and it's about Iphone locator (sorry!)
Hopefully the question is, at least, slightly interesting.
Polling on the phone is currently set to 5 minutes and IPhone locator appears to update every 5 minutes as I also get an update in the OpenLuup log every 5 minutes.
The 'problem' is that the Iphone locator (and therefore any conditions based upon a change in value) are happening 4 minutes and some seconds after the phone polls and updates its position. So effectively the phone is moving for nearly 10 minutes before any notification takes place. Which is a bit slow for my desired application.
As an example:
2022-05-05 17:27:08.244 luup.variable_set:: 55.urn:upnp-org:serviceId:IPhoneLocator1.MsgText2 was: 28.35 Km @ 0.00 Km/h on 2022-05-05 17:17 now: 28.35 Km @ 0.00 Km/h on 2022-05-05 17:22 #hooks:0 2022-05-05 17:32:12.340 luup.variable_set:: 55.urn:upnp-org:serviceId:IPhoneLocator1.MsgText2 was: 28.35 Km @ 0.00 Km/h on 2022-05-05 17:22 now: 27.77 Km @ 6.92 Km/h on 2022-05-05 17:27 #hooks:0Where you can see that the phone must have updated its location between 17:27:08.244 and 17:28:00.000
Anyone got an bright ideas how I can reduce the discrepency?
Cheers!

Hi!
After several tests, restarting the computer where the MSR is, and the MSR itself by Tools > Restart, I have a persistent error in the logs.
32d45bc3-51f8-4718-a113-3381e9d7edf2-image.png
Looking at the global expression (screen below), I see that it is highlighted as an error, however, if I look at two other expressions above that have the same structure, they do not present an error, so I do not think the problem is with the expression's code.
ca8a7867-4ac7-4f9a-9913-15a80da18f05-image.png
This expression uses a group, which validates 4 devices of type door sensor, whether the status is true or false, door open or closed.
"dgc_entrance_open": name: DGC Entrance Open select: - include_entity: - "hubitat>37" - "hubitat>38" - "hubitat>99" - "hubitat>130" filter_expression: > entity.attributes?.door_sensor?.state == trueI also compared it with other groups, the structure is identical.
Looking at the 4 devices in this group, I see that all are active in the MSR, have similar variables, are used in other groups and rules that do not present a problem.
52b099f4-b9c4-46cb-ad3d-c873b09b7e13-image.png
Looking at the log, I understand that it refers to some object that would be null, at which point I am lost on what to actually look at.

This situation started to occur on the latest version of Reactor 22118, on a Windows 10 Bare Metal installation. Does anyone have a similar scenario?
Sorry for the long post, I tried to document as best as possible to try to identify the problem.
Thanks.

Please can anyone give me advice on a cheap way to run MSR (both initial cost and ongoing electricity cost). I currently run it on my QNAP network drive (which works very well incidentally). However, this draws a constant 35Watts (£90/yr @ 30p/kWh) and given the recent rise in fuel costs I am evaluating the best way forwards. Note, I only really need to turn my QNAP on for an hour a week to back-up my computer data. I understand that MSR can run on a Raspberry PI, but I am not competent with Linux! Thanks.
-
I just noticed that the new hotness picked up the entities from when I added an integration temporarily to my Home Assistant and popped a lovely info notice into the Alerts pane.
I know the info is new - but when did MSR suddenly become more real-time with devices being added to hubs? This is great!
-
Noticed in the last few nights that my Global Reaction to turn on a mere six lights in the evenings the same two devices no longer turn on. One is a dimming smart bulb, the other is a wall outlet.
This has been running flawlessly for months - just in the last few nights I've noticed these two devices being left behind and yes, it's always these two devices only.
"What changed?"
No Hubitat firmware updates No new devices added to Hubitat list itemTwo MSR updates (the last two, I keep up with the latest) list itemHome Assistant releases (should have zero bearing, HA is nothing more than pretty dashboards) list itemAdded MQTT to MSRI did do a z-wave "repair" last night and am waiting to see if this helps.
Is there any maximum or cap on number of devices that should be included in a Global Reaction?
*Marked as solved as the question asked was answered. The issue persists but the question was answered.
-
I've borked my install of reactor-latest-22118-0f0772c.tar.gz for some reason and am retracing steps. Running npm i --no-save --omit dev prompted to update npm and I did (current version now 8.6.0). Currently, attempts to load via browser/s (Brave and Safari) result in "This site can’t be reached192.168.1.xxx refused to connect." I am still able to SSH into the RPi.
I haven't panicked yet but did just pull my config and storage directories - I believe I read where that's enough for a back-up if a clean install ends up being needed.
So the question of the day: which version of nmp should we be running on for the latest Reactor?
-
I’ve looked and can’t find the answer which concerns me that the answer is obvious and thats why I can't find the answer to this.
I’m new to MSR and this is my first post, so please bare with me 🙂
What I’m trying to do is have a global expression that contains the current time so I can use it in Global reactions as well as Rulesets as part of my syslog messages.
Example of what I’m experiencing:
In Expressions, create a global expression: gMyTOD = strftime("%T %D”)
In Rulesets, in a rule, create a local expression: MyTOD = strftime("%T %D”)In that same rule create a Notify type of Syslog.
Set syslog message to: gMyTOD time is ${{gMyTOD}} and MyTOD time is ${{MyTOD}}
Trigger the rule.The result is that the local expression (MyTOD) contains the correct time but the global expression (gMyTOD) does not update and reflects the wrong time in the final syslog message.
Is there a different approach I should be using?
Thank you in advance for any insight.

Hi!
What's the easiest and most effective way to make this work? Do I ping a few websites every ten minutes or so, or is there a better approch? If I'm going to ping, what URL is recommended?
Once a month or so, my internet access is lost, and I have to cut the power to the router, to restart it. When I'm away this become a problem, so I thought that if I got a zigbee switch (in Home Assistant), problem is solved. But how do I (MSR) know if it's offline?For information, I have a set up with Asus routers, Home Assistent with zigbee-, z-wave and wifi devices (a total of appr. 150) and every of my 60-70 automation is done by MSR.
I run MSR ver. 22080-ae7212f (docker on my Home Assistant blue). HA ver 2022.4.6.
Thanks in advance.
Take care, you all!

FYI.
Recently a new ALTUI version got pushed out, release 2553. After the update Reactor is no longer showing any of the Control panels in a sensor. looking at the ALTUI changes they seem minimal so in J_ReactorSensor_UI7.js I upped the _MAX_ALTUI_VERSION to 2553 and all seems to be working again.
-
-
So, I have a rule set that it's triggered when a local variable changes. Since it's tied to my solar production, it could change very frequently, so I've just added a reset delay to calm it down, but it's not working as intended.
What I really need is a way to, let's say, define a percentage and define a variable to understand if the new value has changed +/- 10% before going true.
I've tried a couple of ways, but I'm posting here anyway, in case anyone has found a better way to tackle this. Thanks!
-
Perhaps a dumb question. Can I check from Home Assistant that MSR is up and running? I would like to see that in a status page in HA. I can of course ping the other Pi but it doesn't say anything about the MSR status.
-
@toggledbits Is there a way to get Current Alerts as an entity so I could monitor those and send notifications if needed.
My usecase is sometimes openLuup crashes and MSR picks that up pretty quick, sending a pushover notification to me would get my attention to restart it.
Of course there are many ways to monitor connectivity but since MSR already is doing that it would be neat to take advantage of it.

RE: https not allowed in reactor?
To clarify; If I use "Let's encrypt", MSR is not able to connect to HA. Without it, there's no problem. I don't understand why, and is it possible to use HA in MSR with "Let's Encrypt"?

RE: https not allowed in reactor?
I seem to have solved it.

RE: Version 1.0 Pre-release Discussion
This might be off topic and it also reveals my lack of programming skills. But I wounder how is MSR going to be installed, once it leaves beta? I use it on a stationary Windows 10, and the problem is if the power goes out. Then my PC reboots and I have to start the app and change catalog and finally execute "node app.js". I could install it on a RPi, don't know if it can work alongside and on the same RPi as I got Home assistant installed? Then it would start straight away, when the power gets back. To summarize, it's basicly two questions;
- In which ways are we going to be able to install and start up MSR?
- Is it possible to install MSR on a RPi that already is running HA? Or on a Home assistant blue (Odroid N2+)?
Another feature that would be nice is to have a optional setting of automatic updates.
Regardsless - MSR is a great (one of the best) contribution to the smart home community - at least for me. Great job!! -
RE: TTS gone in HA/MSR?
@toggledbits

RE: Version 1.0 Pre-release Discussion
Point taken. Thanks for your swift reply. I totally agree with you. It's important, not to say crucial, to understand the tools you're using. It was a longshoot, born out of lazyness, combined with a very limited portion of time - and so much to learn in home automation, especially for us with no coding skills. But as they say; every journey starts with a single step...
-
RE: Version 1.0 Pre-release Discussion
Another suggestion for upcoming versions is to have some of the most common Expressions easy configurable and available by default. Many of us, including myself, who chooses MSR instead of coding in luup or yaml or even use Node red - do that mainly because of our lack of coding experience. Therefor we would really appriciate all the help we could get, and if I'm correct, it would even be more accessible for a broader audience - just like Vera is more accessible for the common person than HA. An example that I think of is the difference in temperature (or other values) between a sensor indoors and a senor outdoors, would be neat to have as a choice by default. There must be a lot of similair examples . Don't know if this is possible to achive or worthwile, but I thought it was worth to throw it up in the air and see if anyone or anything catches. By the way - have a great weekend!

RE: TTS in MSR?
@librasun . I'm trying to add Microsofts TTS service, but it doesn't work. I got a API key and everything. Still doesn't work. My aim is to use a swedish neural voice instead of Googles voices. Is it working for you?
EDIT: I got it working! The neural voices don't support my region, so I had to change the region (created a new service), when I was logged in at Azure.

Wish list...
MSR is fantastic. No doubt. That fact doesn't change my hopes and wishes for future versions.
If I may, I would like to wish the following:- The possibility in the Trigger section to choose that 2 out of 5 triggers (regardsless which) needs to be meet, or at least 3 out of 7, and so forth, for the reaction to trigger. There is/were a app in the Vera app store like this.
- The possibility to add TTS to a entity which contains a group of speakers. It's possible to add individually, but not as a group (if I'm not misstaken). Sometimes there´s a need to broadcast to every speaker or to a plenty. My workaround today is to record a message as an mp3 and play that file. It works, but well...
Thanks again, Patrick for a game changing service!
Take care!

RE: Z-wave serie 700 Europe/ Reactor/ Home Assistant
@johnabruzzi04 Not sure if I understand your question, so this may not help. I have four connected z-wave devices to MSR;
- 1 Vera Edge
- 1 Vera Plus
- 1 Ezlo Plus
- 1 Aeotec Z-stick 7, connected to Home Assistent Blue.
The Z-stick 7 seems to be useful in your case. It's both connected to HA and MSR and support the 700-series and below. My Ezlo Plus is more for testing purpose. I'm in Europe (Sweden), and got it as a tester from Ezlo - but it's kind of worthless. Not because of it's spec, but for the software and UI. It's not supported in Home Assistent either, so it's crappy...

RE: Is Telegram working?
@toggledbits Thank you for your patience!
After two hours of digging, google searching and some trial and errors, I finally found why it didn't work...
It's easier if the reactor is activated...
It do not work even in the editing menu, as long as it's not activated. This is strange, since I can activate a specific entity/step to try it out. But that was not the case with the notify function. All of my tries have been in the editing menu with the reaction not activated. Now it's working perfectly, and so are my other notify services. Have a great weekend!
