Something like:
I have slight other devices.
Iâm going to try it, does it work with half way open?
As Said, it is e little bit different but test it.
could also be a condition something like: Not Up
or: Greater thanâŚ
Have you looked in the conditions?
According to the appstore ther is.
Btw if you can set a % down you can use that tag also.
If it isnât there ask the developer
Here [APP][Pro&Cloud] Shelly
I think, found the issue⌠for my understanding when its shows UP should be CLOSE, and DOWN is OPEN. But its reverse direction. I need to change it in the flow.
Dank jeâŚ
Still not working⌠what Iâm doing wrong
There should be a âreverse up&downâ option at the advanced settings.
I would recommend to ADD a log card (notification/push message/papertrails etc.) to the âELSEâ part of your flow.
Include the three tags/variables you used at the âANDâ section besides the flow name.
F.i. "Else FlowName. Tag1=[tag1] Tag2=[tag2]
This way you should be able to see why the flow stopped.
Also add such card to the âTHENâ section, with just the flowname.
If the card is sent, but the curtain doesnât respond, the issue is not your flow.
3rd thing you can discover this way: If no flowcards get sent, the flow isnât getting triggered.
Other things to try:
When âAND the state is exactly UPâ doesnât work, try âAND the state is equal to 100%â
Thanks, I will try tomorrow and let you knowâŚ
Ok, I have changed some things in my flow and it works fine. But how flows refresh? With openweather app?
It seems every 30 min openweather refresh itself. But according to the app polling should every 5 min.
OpenWeather (like almost any app or sensor) only sends an update when a value has changed.
OpenWeather polls the OpenWeather API every 5 minutes, but if a value hasnât changed, it doesnât (need to) get updated.
You can check what happened, and when, with Insights:
Dank je,
I will keep my questions in English, for the others who need help.
ok, if i opened my sunshade on wind speed 10km/h and my flow that i create is to close my sunshade on 5km/h but as you said if the data didnt change my flow will not fire up?
i hope i have explained my question correct.
Correct. You should prevent it from opening with windspeed above 5km/h; you could consider adding a max windspeed to the open sunshade flow(s).
IfâŚ
Open sunshade button turned on
AndâŚ
[wind speed] is less than 6
ThenâŚ
Open sunshade
Flow is working fine, only weather data update doesnât make sense⌠i will keep searching for a better solution, bedankt.
Youâre welcome.
Itâs only not about the weather data update, itâs just how it works.
Replace windspeed for lux or temperature and youâll have the same situation.
This flow wonât trigger when you open the shades when the brightness is 75 lux and the brightness doesnât change:
IfâŚ
Brightness has changed
AndâŚ
[Brightness] is less than 150
Then
Set sunshade position to 0%
This flow wonât trigger when you open the shades when itâs 22 degrees and temperature doesnât change:
IfâŚ
temperature has changed
AndâŚ
[temperature] is greater than 20
Then
Set sunshade position to 0%
