It is not like I want it.  
I want the variable to be changed if I press the Devise button and the device button to reflect the variable if changed from another flow.  
At the moment if the variable is changed it reflects with the device and that again triggers the flow for the device what changes the variable what is reflcted by the device…  
That goes on until homey deactivates the flow.

Okay, i’ll see how to solve this.  
Could you perhaps create a ticket.  
Because the testversion has some bugs that need to be resolved first before i can fix and release this.

The poblem is that I cant determine whether the state of a button is changed by pressing a button or by changing it from a flow.

@Dietrich_Kassner  
There are multiple ways you can.  
If you create an OnOff button for instance and turn on the CreateRealFieldsAndFlowcards checkbox, there will come a few default flowcards.  
If the button is toggled through such a flow, the how and from where will show up in the insights log tab.

Is it possible to add a “between” option?  
I’ve got a device that’s switching constantly

 ![Capture 2023-09-26 at 12.41.31@2x](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/7/7/775bdf5bf9937d109c28f4b57db92d98014bd621.png)

I can’t use “equal or less than” since that includes 0 ( zero ) that i use for another state. (also for greater than 0.04 )  
If i use 2 “equals to” they both trigger

Or is there another trick somewhere that i can use?

Are you talking about calculations or a flowcard?

Hi,  
Have created a device with a motion alarm. However this device is not included in zone activity… Why? Possible to fix?

Make sure the class is `Sensor` in the device’s “repair” settings and not the default `Other`, and that also the “Create Real field and Flowcards” setting is enabled.

Would love to have “Prefixed list” with these “items”:  
Automatic  
Heating  
Cooling  
Off

And if possible the Norwegian translation:  
Automatisk  
Varme  
Avkjøle  
Av

I need this so i can set up a Virtual device to controll overrides in Piggybank for my heating pumps in a wife friendly way 😆

Also, an included icon for a heating pump for the virtual device icon would be sweet (since i’m allready out grasping for straws i mean) 🤣

Then thats submitted to the post you linked.

Regarding the icon I’ve tried finding some decent looking ones in any of the free sites I’ve come over (who would could figgure). Have any recommendations on places to look that tend to get burried in google searches?

I’ve tried to switch over too the test version, but it keeps crashing (Homey 2018). Thought that was worth mentioning.

Hi all,

Someone that knows if it should be possible to show a jpg picture from a local web server as camera?

When doing this the camera image is just black. The image is accessible on the LAN.
