Help Consolidating Pistons


#1

1) Give a description of the problem
Hoping to consolidate two pistons

2) What is the expected behavior?
Works fine separately

3) What is happening/not happening?
Don’t know where to begin or if it’s even possible; unsure if it’s even better to do separate or together

**4) Post a Green Snapshot of the piston!

Piston 2

5) Attach any logs (From ST IDE and by turning logging level to Full)
N/A

Thanks!!!


#2

What’s the advantage of putting them together? If nothing, then keep them apart. Easier to troubleshoot, add and subtract things, etc. IMO.


#3

I wasn’t sure if it’d be of any benefit or not, but thought it might be more streamlined and efficient if they’re consolidated. Additionally I was wondering how to consolidated the notifications into one message instead of them coming through separately.


#4

Does the location mode and SHM get changed at the same time from another piston? If they do then I would most certainly consilidate for my sanity. Wouldn’t want my phone blowing up with notifications all the time.

If you are changing those in another piston then you can remove both of these pistons and add the notifications and tiles into that piston.


#5

Currently I’m using a combination of routines and CoRE pistons to change modes. Like using routines because they’re available in the widget and can be triggered using Alexa as long as SHM state doesn’t change which the CoRE piston does.
