Hi.

I installed the latest Configurator in beta 4.7.25 and I have a problem with displaying variables on some objects. Analog variables are correctly displayed on objects with Control Type set as "Label". But when I connect analog variable to, for example, object with Control Type set as "UpDownSetter", a random value is displayed ("Setpoint temperature" button should display the value "13", but is display "18" despite the fact that the logger records value "13" all the time).
Binary variables are correctly written and displayed by the Logger, but a bit object with Control Type set to "Label" still displayed value "0".

A similar visualization in another building (server in beta 4.7.20) works correctly.

Has anyone noticed this problem?

Hi to everyone I am trying to make a room KNX thermostat visualization by using bOS. What I need to do is to control a fancoil and an underfloor heating /cooling valve as main system . First I want to have On/Off for the system. Second I need to turn the fan coil fans speed to automatic , and to manual mode if needed. Also If the the fan mode is to manual I want to control this in steps like fan 1 , fan 2, and fan 3 and back again to 0. Another thing I want to see every time the room's temperature. Also I want of course to change the setpoint of the room thermostat. From the visualization program I want to have Heating / Cooling to be changed (I noticed when I am changing the status from ETS from Cooling to heating mode the icon is changing the opposite I don't know why is this happening). I forgot to mentioned that when the setpoint is changing I want also the setpointing temperature changes to appear of course in the visualization program. Also I want o have the valve of the underfloor heating/cooling to be turn On or Off when the appropriate temperature is set (and see the status of course ) . Last but not least is the 3 modes I Comfort , Away , Night that I want to insert it to the visualization program.  I tried to insert at the beginning  the Room's temperature and it doesn't show me the correct number. Should I have to change it to another format or sometthing?

Hi.

When I try to add next variable or edit that has already been added, Bos Configurator generates an error. It appears in version 4.7.18 as well as after updating to 4.7.20.

Some solution?

Hello,

I've got several GC modules on several bOS systems. 

On all of these systems (Grinder, Jigsaw KNX, Jigsaw Z-Wave) the GC gets sometimes disconnected, at random. Sometimes it reconnects in a matter of seconds ; sometimes it doesn't reconnect and the only solution is to disable and then re-enable the device, or to restart bOS. 

1st question : is there any ways to fix that ? 

2nd question : I can make a test before using GC to check if it is connected or not. But then what can I do ? It seems that it is not possible by program to disable a device, or to restart bOS. Is that correct ? Any other solutions ? 

Thanks,

Hi,

The bOS comes with a function to remotely shut-down, sleep or wake a computer, however it is unclear which methid it uses, as it has ramifications on network or operating system

Method 1 - bOS generates a operating system shutdown command, e.g. shutdown /s /m \\myremotePC /t 5

Method 2 - bOS generates an actual LAN network message and drops it on the network

As the bOS method does not seem to work, have tried multiple things, in order to ring-fence the possible root causes. Can you please confirm which method bOS uses to leverage remote switch-on/sleep of computers pleasE?

Thanks,

Hi everyone.

I would like to understand how the "Restart On Retriger" function in task "Program" works. I need to run "Program" depending on the change of motion sensor violation bit. I have quite long time delays inside "Program" (between 15 and 45 minutes), so it is very important that at each change of the motion sensor violation (change from 0 to 1 or vice versa) my program is interrupted and restarted. How should "Restart On Retriger" be set in this case? On False or on True?

Hi,

Have not been able to get any workaround or method for the following to work, effectively the ability to disable a device on the front-end without the need to go to bOS configurator and mark the driver as 'disable'.

For example, if I want to disable three cameras, I'd like to have the ability to have a button on a frame to allow me to disable the driver of the camera at will -some form of maintenance and control.

Currently the values of a device do not allow to disable a device, it has values to show its status but not to disable it. Is there a workaround to disable devices directly on the client front-end with a simple button that might trigger a programme in bOS.

Hi to everyone. I have to find a solution as soon as possible regarding a new project  with KNX system. We have an analog (not a KNX ) LUX meter from ABB which sends an On command when the external lighting is low . This command is going  to a digital input and this input sends the command to the KNX ouput device to turn On the lights. What we need is that when the digital input send the command we want to enable a scene /time schedule that all the lights are going to be dimmed for example to 70% , from 8pm to 10pm, after 10pm the lighting must go automatically to 40% from 10pm to 12pm. From 12 am and when the digital input send the command to turn Off the lights the lights must be dimmed to 20%. Any ideas on how I can create this kind of scene/ time schedule? Thank you in advance.

Hi everyone.

Since I created the dark theme of visualization, light color of the top and bottom bar is even more annoying (dark interface is less readable, because bright top and bottom strips hurt eyes). Is there any possibility to change this color (applications run on Apple iPad/iPhone devices).
The second issue is truncated texts where names are displayed on two lines. One solution could be to define the space between individual buttons of the bottom menu so that longer text fits on one line. Of course, ideal solution would be the automatic height of bottom bar, depending on displayed texts, or possibility of its definition by the user.

I checked that the top bar is black in Android version. However, truncated texts are still displayed on the bottom bar.

Are there any plans to correct such shortcomings?

Hello,

I'm running bOS 4.7 on Jigsaw KNX with a Z-Stick. 

I have many Fibaro modules in my set-up, including a Fibaro fgd-211 dimmer, and a Fibaro fgs-221 2 relays switch. 

Group 2 of the dimmer is connected to a second switch, and can be used to control other devices thanks to group association.

I want dimmer Group 2 to control group 1 of the fgs-221. 

When I set-up the association, I did find the fgs-221 node, but I didn't find each of the relays. So, I associated dimmer group 2 to fgs-221 node. And it did work : I can now control relay 1 with dimmer switch 2. 

However, I'm now having the following error message on bOS when I click on Associations : "La référence d'objet n'est pas définie à une instance d'un objet" which would translate approximatively as "Object reference not set to an instance of an object". And I cannot view / modify associations anymore.
