play sound How do I play a sound

Andy Gill 8 years ago in bOS Configurator / Tasks 0

Hello,

Could someone explain how I play a sound based on a program or an event? Ideally through a client but failing that through the server?

I would like to play a warning sound should a condition not be met when the user is changing a mode.


Thanks

For some unknown reason, the Modbus protocol causes Values\Connected\Value: True to change to False.

Ronnie Lin 4 months ago in bOS Configurator updated by Jürgen Jürgenson 4 months ago 2

Hi Support team,

I have a project that uses many Modbus Devices (Reference #1)
My protocol settings
Driver\Enable: True
Error Handling: Reconnect
Will work normally initially
Values\Connected: Trues (Reference #2)
After a period of operation
For some unknown reason, the Modbus protocol causes Values\Connected\Value: True to change to False.
Causes Modbus Device to fail to operate
Check that the physical network device and Modbus device are not faulty
The important finding is that bOS also has no error messages
I think because there is no fault abnormal signal in bOS, the parameter setting of Reconnect has no effect.

Disposal method:
Log in to bOS Configurator
Manually
set Driver\Enable: True
change into
Driver\Enable: False
Cultivation again
Driver\Enable: True
Such operation can restore normal function operation
But when something goes wrong, the customer's on-site environment shuts down immediately.
Exclusion actions require our assistance in running the program

Need help
what is the solution
It allows me to use a program to detect Driver\Enable: True
and driver\enabled: False
Automatically re-execute
Driver\Enable: True->False->True

This problem has happened many times
And every time it happens, not all Modbus devices will have the same situation happen simultaneously.
We cannot monitor the running status of the client bOS system all the time
Whenever the customer's equipment shuts down abnormally, the customer will notify us to handle it.
Several incidents gradually raised questions among customers about the stability of our systems.
Therefore requesting assistance in providing a solution Thanks

Looking forward your reply
Best regards

Run bOS functions with Microsoft Power Automate

Ricardo Pinto | visiontech pt 11 months ago in Devices / Http updated 11 months ago 1

Hello everyone,

There a bunch of times, where I'm sitting at the office in my workstation, and I need to turn on the office table light.

I could:

  1. Move my ass and reach to the office entrance, and push the KNX button
  2. Pick up the phone, open the bOS app and navigate into the office room to turn on the light
  3. Open the bOS Windows app and do exactly the same

But honestly I was looking for a quicker way to turn on/off the office light while I'm at the computer.

So I opened Microsoft Power Automate, and created two flows to work with bOS RPC API:

  • One flow to turn ON the light; And a shortcut to fire it up (CTRL+SHIFT+L)
  • One flow to turn OFF the light; And a shortcut to fire it up (CTRL+SHIFT+D)

And that's it! Now I can quickly turn on/off the office table light while I'm working, without having to open the bOS apps, by using the bOS RPC API and Microsoft Power Automate.

Lazy asses, you can thank me later :D

Best regards

Ricardo Pinto

    RGB Color Picker - proposed improvements

    Artur S 1 year ago in bOS Configurator / Devices updated by ComfortClick Support 1 year ago 1

    Hello,

    I have one proposition to improve the color picker addon/function. Now bOS allows us to use four separate values for RGBW channels. Additionally we have no enough possibilities to convert it to different kind of values, required by the other devices/systems. For example - KNX uses only RGB, Yeelight RGB in consolidated decimal format...

    I believe that for Comfortclick Team is it very easy and simple to add additional values, to use it alternatively to separate channels. My proposition:

    What we have now:

    R - decimal 0-255 or 0-100

    G - decimal 0-255 or 0-100

    B - decimal 0-255 or 0-100

    W - decimal 0-255 or 0-100

    What is needed:

    R - HEX 00-FF

    G - HEX 00-FF

    B - HEX 00-FF

    W - HEX 00-FF

    RGB - decimal (R*65536+G*256+B) 0-16777215

    RGB - hex 0x00-0xFFFFFF

    Do anybody need something else? What do you think about this?

    Best Regards,

    Artur

    Philips Hue API v2 Events (Server-Side Events)

    Ricardo Pinto | visiontech pt 1 year ago in Devices / HUE updated 1 year ago 8

    Hello everyone,


    First of all, hope you all had a very nice Christmas, with all the beloved ones.


    I'm using some Philips HUE sensors, and I was actually using some of them to turn KNX lights on.


    The problem, is that we need to constantly pool the API, which is time and resource consuming for the HUE hub and Comfortclick.


    Philips HUE updated the API to the v2, and they have some interesting features, like the events, which allows to keep a constant connection to a data stream, and get realtime updates without the need to constantly pool the HUB.


    https://developers.meethue.com/develop/hue-api-v2/migration-guide-to-the-new-hue-api/#Event%20Stream (Login needed to see the API docs)


    Side note:


    I have to trick the HUB about the sensor. The sensor needs to be active, and for that at least one HUE light has to be linked. But on my case I don't want to turn on any HUE light, but rather a KNX light. For that, I link the sensor to a random HUE light, and set the actions to do nothing when detecting movement (so I can just extract the true motion from the json).


    Back to the topic:


    So I've tested the curl command, and I really get the realtime updates, and it looks awesome.


    Problem: I can see this realtime updates on the Windows console, by using the curl command, as stated on their documentation:


    curl --insecure -N -H 'hue-application-key: ' -H 'Accept: text/event-stream' https:///eventstream/clip/v2

    But, I would like to do this on ComfortClick. I've tested several options, but none of them worked.


    Anyone can eventually enlighten me, if it's doable?

    I think that to have the possibility of comment a line or section and add comments into a program might be really good. For development of task for example or other reasons.

    Hello,

    I would like to change the temp set point for at least 4 rooms with one button in CC. That means I have to communicate with at least 4 group addresses.

    I'm sure there is an easy solution.

    Can anyone support me?

    Thank you

    Release notes update

    Andrzej Szymkowicz 3 years ago in bOS Configurator updated by Sebastien Clivaz 3 years ago 4

    Hello,

    Would it be a big problem to provide precise information about what has changed in a given version?
    For example, the latest version has changed the way of presenting modbus type objects in relation to the last upgrade - there is no information about it. Every time an update is a surprise of what's new. We cannot do that for commercial customers.
