Re: RX433N &

I have been working with similar solutions for sending signals, see https://nethomeserver.blogspot.se/search?q=bitbanger . problem is that it is hard to get reliable reception in Linux without a kernel mode driver, which usually means building your own version of the kernal. I am not sure exactly ho...

Re: Problem with some characters in item names

Oh, that was a nasty little bug, thanks for pointing it out. It is fixed now in the nightly build, so you can have & and other special characters in the Item name.

Re: SunTimer

Hmm, no, the timer does not log very much, but the problem might be the spaces - you cannot have spaces before or after the -> If this does not help, send me your config-file and I will take a look at it (/etc/opt/nethome/config.xml). Also the problem might be the sun rise or sun set. If I today wou...

Re: New Action(s): Toggling/switching between the predefined dim settings

There is now a CommandSequencer-Item in the nightly build. Try it out and see if it solves your problem.

Re: Exec and pipes

Ok, really fun to hear that you got it working! And thanks a lot for sharing the solution, it can save a lot of time for others that want to do similar things. Maybe it is not a bad thing that you collect all knowledge on how to control the lamps in one single script, otherwise that information woul...

Re: SunTimer

It could be that there is some error in the format of the timer string for that day. There is no good error reporting for bad format strings. So if you don't see any times in the "Timer Today:"-attribute, please check the format for that day.

Re: New Action(s): Toggling/switching between the predefined dim settings

Ok, Mikko, now you are pushing it... :D But this is actually a good idea, it is a common problem that you want to be able to step through a series of settings with one button. My suggestion would be this: A CommandSequencer-Item with six configurable commands. Then it has two actions: "next&quo...

Re: Controlling brightness only if the lamp already is on

Ok, no - the GUI for the set command is really cryptic (sorry for that). This is the way you do it: First select "set" as action, and press the apply button. After that, the command will look like this: set,[item name],[item attribute],[attribute value] Edit the text, so [item name] is rep...

Re: "Event queue full" Error after 10 minutes of usage

Well, I am not sure that you have full control what really happens every ten seconds... Your logs show that you seem to receive bursts of events at a high rate. If these bursts come every 10 seconds, every minute or every 24 hours does not matter - the server will anyway choke when the burst comes. ...

Re: "Event queue full" Error after 10 minutes of usage

Hi Mikko I looked at the log, and I actually get the impression that you are overloading the server a bit. Locking at the warnings started at 2017.09.12 20:41:37.487, there is warnings that are less than 20 ms apart, meaning that there are events coming in at a rate of 50 events per second. Since th...
