DCERouter Delay function
« on: July 04, 2011, 09:20:13 pm »
Hi people.

I think there's a simple question, but i got stuck in this situation, using the router delay function.
The situation is that i use a CM15A X10 controller that works fine with all signals, on off and dimer, but i had created a lighting scenario in one of my MD to do:
-Switch on upstairs light
-Switch off all lights in salon
-Wait 120 seconds
-Switch off upstairs light

All is done ok, also the last off command for the upstairs light but using the DCeRouter Delay and set it to 120 seconds (In the comment for the parameter it say that the value is in Seconds) never wait directly switch off the light.
I tried the value in minutes setting it to 2, in seconds set it to 120 and in miliseconds set it to 120000, because i had read in some post and wiki that could be in all three, but never get a good result.
Any comments?

Thanks in advance.

OK, i didn't try 1004 for the moment, but i had observed that is not only in this scenario, is in whatever scenario y can create. It seems that could be something in my core?

Hi Nuwis,
I have a similar scenario setup to turn off the lighs in my mudroom after 5 minutes which gets triggered by a sensor during night time hours. Attached you can see the screenshot. I am running 810. This has worked flawlessly for me for the past year or so. Something to keep in mind is that when you setup things in LMCE especially lighting and other 'Scenarios', I have noticed that after you reload your router, go ahead and reboot it else you get erratic results with triggered events.
br,
Raj

Hi again bros.

Finally i found a solution.
That function, at least in my core, just run ok on a "Respond to events" scenario. It means, if i create a scenario in lighting scenarios for example it never wait this delay.
I create a "respond to event" scenario when house mode changes to sleeping executing the commands i want to do, and it works fine.
There's no way to use it in other scenarios? or where is executed this function to trace back the problem?

Thanks in adavance.
