Shutter control #13

Open vjozsef opened 6 years ago

Hi, This is good node, I using it for shutter control, but now only work with scheduler only mode. Do you plan to add a new feature? For dusk / dawn function "only when it is light"? It would be a good idea if the shutter control was dependent not only on scheduler but also on sunlight.

Hi,

that was actually a good idea and could be useful in other situations as well!

Regards, Niklas

Hi, my use case is similar. Please, could you add "only when it is light" as proposed by vjosef? My current work around is to use a 2nd instance sending "on" in the evening and "auto" on morning to get the function "open shutter not before". It toggles the main instance between "forced on" (shutter closed) and "auto" (shutter opened at sunlight). It would be great for me. Best Regards

Im not quite shure, if this node will be devolped any more. For blind-control I use node-red-contrib-sun-position. It is a little bit more complex but should do the work for you.
