Were you trying to further this discussion?

Setting up Global variable using $Sunset +/- offsets

I’ll provide my current Global Variable Calculation Piston and an example of one of the other nightly pistons it feeds - since it would be a continuation of the discussion in this thread. However, if you’d like to continue further regarding your needs and questions, I’d recommend that you start a new message thread and we can continue your discussion there. Tag me in the new mesage so I can easily find it and respond. Here’s my piston that calculates some of my Global Variables: [image] …an…

and our private discussion?

Hi Lee, once again, thanks for the details. It’ll take me a while to read and compute in my head but it is very useful. When you created the global variable name, how did it look.

If you look at the piston I posted, that the Set Variable line for @PMOn says it’s a ‘Time’ variable. Also, under value, the pulldown has allowed me to change it to an expression - and it shows the expression I entered.

As I mentioned in the private thread, for the very basic webCoRE questions such as these, it might be a good idea to have a look here: https://wiki.webcore.co/webCoRE#Installing_webCoRE
