That can be done by adding the following lines to your openluup.service file:

I’ve added a couple of Shelly Wave i4 as scene controllers and I’m planning to add more, since I can just use standard buttons instead of battery-powered scene controllers, which also looks better aesthetically.
That said, I’m struggling to figure out how to write a simple rule that cycles between states every time I press a button.
Example: Light 1 ON → OFF, then Light 2 ON → OFF.
The part I can’t get right is handling the case where Light 1 or Light 2 might already be ON independently of the rule.
Maybe it’s just too much sun and relaxation clouding my brain, but any hint would be appreciated.
Use case:
When performing home maintenance, such as air conditioning, I want all rules involving air conditioning to be disabled.
To do this, to day, I have a virtual switch that I placed within all rules involving air conditioning, meaning that if I turn it off, none of them work.
Then another situation: the water pump system and garden irrigation, another switch.
In short, I had to create several virtual switches in Hubitat to disable rules in MSR.
Unfortunately, however, I was unable to cover all scenarios, so I wondered if it would be possible for MSR to support a virtual MSR switch, which, when configured in the reactor settings, would function as a general on/off switch for MSR.
If it is configured and turned off, the entire rules and actions in MSR stops working, except for the status change reading process, specifically for this switch, which, when turned on, would restart the MSR.
Would it be possible to do something like this? Any recommendations from the experts?
Probably a really dumb question.
Currently I am using the owntracks_sensor for tracking phones being in region in MSR and it works great.
Digging around with Home Assistant and toying with some dashboards, is there any way of exposing that sensor to HA trivially? I could set MSR to trip a virtual switch in OpenLuup which can then be exposed to HA (with all my other Vera devices) but that feels a bit in-elegant if I can do it directly.
Any thoughts?
Apologies if the ask is not clear/
TIA

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.
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.
I foolishly let my system wipe all cookies this morning and with it my settings for my MSR home page.
Once logged back in I can no longer remove errant panes nor is the + available to add new ones.
Brave Browser v1.80.122 (Jul 16, 2025)
What have I done?!
Will check other browsers on my M1.
UPDATE: Safari exhibits same behaviour.
I've tried both sans last-four public key entry and with - no change.
@toggledbits, not sure if this is a feature request or I'm using the search tool wrong. You have a "Search for rule" in the Rules Set tab in MSR. It works nicely to find a rule and bring up said rule, but can it/could it be used for as a "where used?" global search? For instance, I have a fairly large set of rules, divided up into 10 different rulesets. There's easily a hundred individual rules, and many of the rules have Rule State triggers, which of course refer to other rules. Amongst my troubleshooting today, I came across what may have been a duplicate or troubleshooting attempt, but I can't tell if it's actually used as a Rule State in another rule without opening each rule that I suspect it may be a part of.
Thanks.
Hi Smart Home Community.
I have used a Sonos inline WiFi switch to make one of my light fittings smart, but it requires a hard reset for WiFi changes, plus it isn't zigbee compatible, which means I can't use the Hue app to control it with the rest of the lights.
To that end I bought a Samotech SM308-S as it is recommended as the better than the Sonos equivalent.
I am however not exactly sure how to wire it in.
The manual is available here
Can anyone help me by clarifying which ports I need to use, and whether I should be using the live or switched live line for live etc.
I will be keeping using standard switches for a while, although hope to upgrade to tap dials once I have all the fittings upgraded.
Thanks

Luup reload required after server reboot -
Z-Way electric meter devices not in openLuupIt's working.
Thanks to @akbooer and @rafale77 for helping!After experimenting again this morning it's working.
The CGI is showing information now and the Greenwave is including power monitoring in openLuup.
Basically I did what was follow the instructions from last night and this morning.
- Deleting the ZWay plugin and all of it's children.
- Deleting the /etc/cmh-ludl/cgi/zway_cgi.lua and /etc/cmh-ludl/L_ZWay.lua and L_ZWay2.lua files.
- Reloading the Luup engine (this I probably forgot to do last night)
- Setting ownership on folder /cmh-ludl/cgi and all it's children to my username instead of root (not sure this is necessary)
- Installed the plugin from AltAppStore
- Downloaded the ZWay_cgi.lua from github and placed is in /etc/cmh-ludl/cgi
- Reloading the Luup engine
- Configured the IP and logon information of my ZWay
- Reloading the Luup engine

Auto Start z-way-serverJust wandering if a wait on network should be added.
With a pi this is done using raspi-config, but any other Linux distribution doesn't have that.Maybe add?

OpenLuup IP AddressThat is very strange, but has nothing to do with openLuup as far as I know. I think you must look for what is causing this in your Debian or network.
Looks like you have something in your network that is redirecting your local network through the internet since 217.3.79.1 is not a private but public ip-address

First post to say helloHi guys,
I just got word of this new community by community forum. Guess I'm a bit late to the party
At the moment I'm in transition from VeraPlus to a openLuup/Z-Way system.
Now I will be looking for the setting to change to darkmode

Help. Installing Reactor on Home Assistant.When portainer is installed on HassOS, this is considered as a not supported HA install. This could give some trouble updating in the future.
Since you are using proxmox, I would make 2 virtual machines.
One to install HA using the HassOS script you have. And the other to install docker and portainer on which you can install MSR as explained by toggledbits.
This way you can also use docker for all other sort of projects which are not related to HA without interfering with it.

z-way-server ubuntu install@rafale77 Thanks for these instructions.
The part I never got working properly was that libcurl4 issue.Now it's clear to me how to address this, I will most certainly try again.
Thanks again for your work!

Z-Way electric meter devices not in openLuupJust to be sure I checked the openLuup version. Was running v2020.04.17 but now I'm updated to 2020.05.01
Pretty sure that's the latest version -
Z-Way electric meter devices not in openLuupYou are being to hard on yourself. You are already doing great work!
And easier would be nice to see, but that's a work in progress.
Even I was able to get it up and running, that's best advertising you can get

Help with Z-Way pluginI'm expecting the experts will chime in soon.
But to get you started, I will try to help with what I know.You need to "link" the Z-Way plugin to your Z-Way "server". Because both of them run on the same RPi you only need to enter the credentials you use to login to your Z-Way. This should be the message you see on the plugin in openLuup.
Entering the credentials can be done in the plugin under actions. Enter your username and password and click on the login button.
Hope this helps.
