Goodmorning everyone,

http basic string manipulation
Hi There,
Usinng the Http basic I can bring a string back from an API to another device, but that string contains data I do not need, I only want the present value from this response: {"present-value":22.285308837890625,"object-id":"0.1001","object-instance":"1001","object-type":"0","device-id":"0","href":"http://192.168.0.100:47800/api/v1/bacnet/devices/0/objects/0.1001"}
Is this possible in Comfort Clik, in short I wanto to populate a temperature in comfort click using the present value in the above response?
Thanks

Hello,
it is possible to parse JSON and XML data from the response. If your response is in one of those formats it is quite easy to read out the data. Another way is to use REGEX and parse out any data from text, but that is harder.
Example for JSON:
{
"Sensor1": {
"Temperature": 10
}
}
On the main HTTP node chose parser type "Json"
If you would like to read out temperature from sensor 1 (value 10), create a new variable under HTTP node e.g. double and enter Sensor1.Temperature in the Token Name field.

resetting the hour counter?
Hey there!
I try to reset the hour counter from an operating time task to get a daily overview for the consumption. I tried to reset it via a program task but it seems the hour counter cant be resetted. Is there an other way i could try?
I appreciate any help :)
Greetings
Daniel

Hello,
which version of bOS are you using? You should be able to reset Operating time counter by runing Reset () function via Program task or manually by clicking three dots button in Reset line under Operating time Functions tab.

Intrunet SPC - Siemens
Hi,
Are there any plans of adding support for Intrunet SPC - Siemens (recently purchased by Vanderbilt) alarm systems in the near future?
Thanks
Anders

Hi,
we get a lot of different request for new drivers, and we are constantly trying to upgrade and add new drivers to our bOS, but there is also a lot of optimization and maintenance on the existing ones. We are planning to add many more drivers to our system in the future, including Intrument SPC, but we cannot promise anything right now. The priority is always to make the current drivers work as well as possible and then add new ones.

Randomizing schedule
Hi,
I was wondering if there is a good way to randomize when a schedule is turned on and turned of.
I.e. today I have a plc-based function which turns on a switch sometime between 9 and 10 pm and turns it off sometime between 11.30 and 11.50 pm. Thus making the on/off randomized between a set time frame.
I'd appreciate any help in getting this to work.
Thanks
Anders

Modbus not working
Hi There,
I still cannot get my modbus connection working since about 3 updates ago, does not seem to send anything out despite showing connected.
Previously there has been a problem with it constantly disconnecting and reconnecting but this is no longer happening.
I have checked my rs485 converter and it works fine with other software as does the device I'm trying to communicate with.
The log says the command has gone out, but there is no activity on the usb/rs485 converter as I would expect.
Any ideas?

Fibaro Binary input module - Setup
Has anyone got one of these working? I can get either of the two binary inputs to change the state of just one basic state in the device, but cant get individual status and temperature back from it?
I have added additional binary inputs and the multilevel sensor to the device in BOS but nothing comes back on them?
Cheers

Basic device and ASCII command
Hi There,
I'm trying to send an ASCII command to a device via RS232, the command is "T002:1" (Toggle address 2 relay 1) and the device it's controlling requires a carriage return to complete the command,which I believe in the bos setting needs to be in hex in the "new line" field so I'm using "0x0d", the documents for the device say to end with "/r"
I'm getting a Basic devices Error in the error log with no description,I can send the command from the command line using echo, but there is no response on the device from BOS?
Any pointers would be gratefully received.
Thanks

DSC Alarm Partition
Hi there,
it is possible to make the control of additional partitions ?
By default, we have the away mode partition, armed in stay mode and disarmed.
In central DSC, a new partition "night mode" as been configured, how can I control via confortClick ?
Regards

Hello,
you can add another partition under DSC node, select partition number and drag and drop it in your visualization theme.
Second option is to use "Virtual keypad". You can enable virtual keypad under main DSC node (Virtual Keypad). Before you enable virtual keypad, your DSC alarm must be connected to bOS and you need to change baud rate to at least 19200.
To add virtual keypad to your theme drag and drop main DSC node in your theme and select virtual keypad. Virtual keypad acts like normal DSC keypad so you need to assign partition or set the keypad as global.
