What are reed switches?

borristhecat · 2018-01-15 07:55:32 UTC

Standard dumb security contacts that come as small bars or ones that get installed inside the door frame. They come in pairs one is a magnet the other the reed switch. But if I was starting again I would have looked at the new start up Konnected and used the reed switches.

pcgirl65 · 2018-01-15 17:44:54 UTC

Wow! I didn’t know about the Konnected! That is exactly what I need as we moved into a house 3 years ago that had an old alarm system which we don’t use. I thought just the other day, wouldn’t it be nice to somehow integrate that into ST. I think I am going to pre-order one of these.

borristhecat · 2018-01-15 19:46:34 UTC

yeah looks good don’t it if I had known about it I wouldn’t have brought so many universal binary sensors! It’s also a great time to get one as its still cheap as on the kickstarter.

I have an issue where the variable ‘i’ is being initialized to -1 so it is throwing a IndexOutOfBounds error. Any help would be appreciated.

When you look at the piston in Webcore it shows that the variable for i is equal to -1 in the beginning. It then sets it later on in the piston.

borristhecat · 2018-01-19 16:38:43 UTC

your using a slightly different version of the piston but looks ok; once you have ran it it should clear correctly; are you still getting errors?

scottma61 · 2018-01-19 18:36:02 UTC

I did take the latest version posted above and made some minor tweaks (my presence sensors, my speakers … nothing major different). It does seem to run and I am getting the results I expect. However when I look at the log I see the IndexOutOfBounds error and the variable ‘i’ is being set at -1? I am not positive, but I believe it may be set in this statement:
set variable {i} = indexOf(pSensors, $currentEventDevice)

I am guessing that it is not finding $currentEventDevice in the pSensor array so it is set to -1? I have not had time to continue to debug this, but my guess is the variable {i} is then reset later on and therefore the rest of the script works?? When I look at the list of local variables and their values (on the right hand side of the piston dashboard) it shows that {i} is equal to -1, even after the piston has been run multiple times.

Hopefully I will have some time this weekend to continue to look into this.

borristhecat · 2018-01-19 19:02:12 UTC

Yes this is supposed to happen as, @bangali did the original code hes the man to speak to. But as I understand it this bit works out which person has left and how many have left.
You don’t need to worry that the variable is stored at -1 at the end of the piston eather as everytime it runs it rechek’s it and changes it if its needed. Your find if more than one person leaves it will change.

scottma61 · 2018-01-19 20:35:17 UTC

Thanks. As I said the piston does seem to be performing the functions properly. I was just concerned that I fat-fingered something when I saw the error in the logs. I will monitor and ignore as long as it still continue to function. Thanks for your input.

bangali · 2018-01-20 03:45:24 UTC

that should not happen. that section of the code is only executed for the named presence sensors so it should always find the indexof value.

it could be happening on the lastindexof statement further down. if you have time to debug this further please let me know.

thanks.

scottma61 · 2018-01-20 21:03:06 UTC

Okay. Went back to the piston I was using when I first noticed the error in the log. I have added logs for the variables so I could see what they were at trhe time it runs and the Piston is below:

I think it is the lastIndexOf(who[whoI], ) on line 152 that is the problem as that is evaluating to -1 … but I do not know why?

This piston has been working fairly well with multiple people coming and going. The only problem that it is having is in the speech part. Some weird sentences are happening. For instance when my hubby came home it said “What’s up Tom. Tom is” and this one "Hello Hope you had a good day Tom, Tom is Lets here it for ". I have gone through the random phrases but I can’t find the problem. Some other eyes on this maybe…

The problem in the last part of line 92. There are two issues: 1) It appears as if you have an opening statement in the closing statement random line. You have 'Lets here it for 'as one of the statements and when you look at the other choice that are all closing statements (‘in the house.’, ‘is here.’) You should move the ‘Lets here is for’ to the opening statement random clause earlier in the expression (before the ‘+ Name +’ part).

There is a closing comma right after 'Lets here is for ’ that should not be there. I believe that is interpreted as a blank option in the random clause so the result is when the random selection is the blank clause you get ‘Tom is’ with nothing else. Remove the comma between ‘Lets here it for’ and the closing parenthesis in the Random clause and that should fix it.

Hope that helps.

Thanks! I will look at this tomorrow as the Raptors are going to start soon:grin:

hey @pcgirl65 I tweaked it a bit so its easier for you to change the messages, I also added your extra words as i was looking for other ideas anyway

pcgirl65 · 2018-01-27 13:47:35 UTC

Thanks I will try this!

Here is my latest version adapted from all of the good work created by others in this thread. I have added additional ‘random’ phrases as a small contribution to the effort.

I also want to capture the current speaker volume setting (level?) before the announcement is made, set the level for the announcement, speak the announcement, then return the level to its original setting. I attempted this code, but have not been able to test it. I don’t know if this will work as I have four Fabriq speakers defined in my ‘Speaker’ group. Ideally each speaker will do this independently (each setting and then returning to it’s prior volume level setting after the announcement). I want to prevent someone from turning the volume all the way down (or up) on the speaker and therefore affecting the announcement volume level. It you know a better, or proper way, to accomplish this, I would greatly appreciate the advice.

Thanks.
