Timer / stopwatch ?
The current "Timer" function (count down) in bOS is great, but are there plans to have a timer-counter ? (count up / stopwatch) ?
Idea I'm playing with is to calculate the time since an action last occurred (example: last movement in house 10 minutes, 1 hour... 2 hours ... ago), and then trigger an event.
Playing sound file on a specific Sonos device
Can someone tell me how to play a specific sound file in the Music Library of my Sonos system on a specific Sonos. I'm trying to use the ChangeStationByUri(stationName, streamingUrl) function but no success yet. The command is being transferred to the Sonos player when I put the link to the file (\\NAS-....) instead of stationName (and leave streamingURL blank) but my Sonos controller tells me "Unable to locate ...". Also tried putting the audio file in my Sonos favorites and calling the favorite in bOS but no luck so far.
Modbus Coils
Dear Support
I got a problem with the Modbus. I exchange variables with the PLC (Beckhoff) using Coils… I created some buttons in the Comfort click pages and I used them to turn on and off the lights. As well I have some buttons in the Comfort Click page that show the status of the lights based on the output of the light feedback (light on or off)
When I push the light button from ComfortClick (for e.g. to turn on the light) the Modbus updates the coil status and the I see the new coils status in the PLC immediately (around 100 ms) To read the coils status from Comfort Click I used the modbus function code 01 (loading the status of all coils coming from comfortclick in one array of boolevery PLC scan)
Instead when the PLC software change the status of a coil (to update the status of the light) the comfort click tool takes up to 10 seconds to update the coil status in the ComfortClick (I monitor the Modbus bool tag status time to change from 1 to 0 or vice versa directly on the comfortclick tag value page)
To write the coils for comfortclick I used the modbus function 15 writing every 2 plc scan the status of all the coils directed to the comfortclick in an array of bool
The coils that I used to turn on the light and monitor its status are different (2 different coils with different address)
Can you help me to make the update of the coils to comfort click faster? As it is now is a pain...
Regards
Marco
Aeotec Z-Stick
Dear,
I bought the USB Aeotec Z-Stick but when I start to configure it in the comfortclick tool I don t see the configuration - Network tab as you reported in the documentation in your web page.
As well when I try to include the controller in the controller list I don t see anything and as well if I press the button settings
What is wrong?

Hue-connection not working
Got my hue-lights home today and started connecting them towards bOS. Sadly, the integration is broken.
When doing a wireshark-trace it´s obvious that bOS tries to connect to the hue bridge with user "ComfortClick" - no matter what username you specify in the configure-wizard.
The HUE API states that fixed usernames should not be used anymore as the are "soon" to be deprecated from the API. I guess that day has arrived - I tried to create a new user manually through the API but only got a json back with "username is not a valid command" or something like that.
