Support in advanced flow for lite and "helderheid" / flow not working

Based on my understanding of the initial flow, comparing the ‘Dagdeel’ BLL variable with both the ‘Nacht J/N’ and ‘Overdag’ BLL variables will never work.

Looking at the BLL app screenshots:

  • The Dagdeel variable is a trigger type. The value is the date/time tag the variable was changed. So a text/string based variable, currently holding value ‘29 sep 2024, 13:18:28’
  • The Overdag and Nacht J/N variables are of a Boolean type (true/false). Currently both holding the false value.

The comparison won’t work because:

  • You are comparing variables of different types;
  • The possible values of Overdag and Nacht J/N (true or false) will never be included in the Dagdeel value: neither the ‘false’ nor ‘true’ texts are included in text ‘29 sep 2024, 13:18:28’

As a result the BLL card will either chose the false connector path (because the value is not included) or the error path (because you are trying to compare different variable types).

Using the built-in AND cards (or the reverse of them) for determining the part of the day, as suggested in the posts above, is the route to go.

Hi, it is a Fibaro motion sensor:

And I think it will update frequently the luminance

And as I mentioned in my first post, I don’t know how the BL app and variables are working, hence the question on this forum :wink:
So how do you want me to answer this.

Great, thank you for the clear explaination!
I will try to get working with the original “Date & Time” values/flows :slight_smile:

Hi all,
thank you for the support and tips&trics! It is working now! :slight_smile:
Please find here the final flow:

Thank you!

Nice and well done. Step by step to the result you prefer, together with the community!

IMHO this will do the same:
