Scheduler Trouble

Post by thebeetleuk »

Hi All,

I'm probably being an idiot but I cant seem to get the scheduler working. No matter what I do I cant get it to trigger an event. Also even when I set a new schedule and go back in I can't see what I've set it to.

Copy and paste from evenghost....

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<EventGhost Version="1582">
    <Plugin Identifier="Scheduler" Guid="{5C822DE2-97E7-4DB8-8281-CD77ED216A63}" File="Scheduler">
        gAJYIgAAADAxMDEsMDUwMSwwNjA2LDEyMjQsMTIyNSwxMjI2LDEyMzFxAFgTAAAAMDEwNiwwMzIxLDAzMjQsMDYyMHEBiYdxAi4=
    </Plugin>
</EventGhost>
when I open the schedule dialog bot I can't see the times as you see below. it's just blank :cry:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<EventGhost Version="1582">
    <Action>
        Scheduler.SchedulerAction(['----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----'], u'Morning', u'Kitchen ON', u'Kitchen OFF', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', '----', u'0101,0501,0606,1224,1225,1226,1231', u'0106,0321,0324,0620', 1, 1, 1.5, True, False, True, 30)
    </Action>
</EventGhost>
The only thing I seem to get in the log is the following line (for information only).
21:47:02 Next execution of Morning will start in 60.9385432805 seconds

Help?

Well, you have to define your on and off times you like the thing to turn on/off at...otherwise it will not work. I think there is a readme in the distribution.

It's is where I'm confused now. I have specified on and off times as you can see in the string values.. For testing I just set on then off a minute apart. The only problem is when I go back in tot change them its blank again, even though it seems to be storing the values.

More importantly no event is fired in the log at the times I specify.

Still stuck :cry:

There are no time intervals defined in your configuration of the action.

Please provide a screen shoots of the plugin and action you have configured
