Sunset and sunrise

MarcoF · March 2016

Sunset+Sunrise triggering is +1!

Just bought a Fibaro multi sensor at Pims. Will try use his lux sensor to control lights.

My "sunrise ends" flow didn't execute this morning. I will add extra flows to troubleshoot.

Both sunrise didn't work this morning See ,
@aloft ,
Did your Sunrise Start execute? or don't you use that trigger?

MartijnDeRhoter · March 2016

My Sunrise Start did not execute. Grr.

I only had a 'sunrise ends' trigger.

However I have no 0.8.24 version here it is also very disappointed for me to read.

It was one of the 1st bugs I reported. https://github.com/athombv/homey/issues/8

Well..... Then install it..... The disappointment is not needed . Just puch the update button

No experimental for me after a bricked one.

Still wait to the stable version.

I only have a sunset flow, worked great today!
It switched on kaku garden lights and after 15 min another kaku garden light.

spamenigma · March 2016

After it not working the other week I've ignored doing anything with flows. This week (after latest .24 install) I tried my first one again.. light on at sunset, light off at sunrise.. with a pushover message setup to track it.

The first one worked 2 days ago at sunset, my light switched on, pushover notification sent. Since then nothing!! Didn't turn off yesterday, didn't turn on yesterday, didn't turn off today, zip, nil, nought, zilch, zero, nada, nothing!

Fingers crossed for the next update then

MartijnDeRhoter · March 2016

Strange - it's almost like there's an external dependency that causes it to work intermittently. I'm guessing the Sunset/rise cards aren't on Github?

mruiter · March 2016

sundown and sunrise stopped working after a few days working yesterday.
Did a reboot around 1600 today just to be sure homey was clean and again sundown does not work today.

So after just a few days of working sundown and sunrise is officialy death again

TedTolboom · March 2016

Just upgraded to 0.8.24 today...
I defined some flows (with Better Logic string variables) to check if Sunset and Sunrise are working...

So far, it is writing the correct date and time... if the flow is tested, the famous 31-12-2015 21:23 date and timestamp are shown...

Let's see for the next days if the sun will remain rising and setting

For me, it worked only the first time I setup flows (about 40 mins before sunset) for sunset start/end. Sunrise did never triggered.

https://github.com/athombv/homey/issues/8 is closed but the problem still exists in version 0.8.29, hope this will be solved soon.

How can you make a trigger half an hour before sunset?

At this moment, it is very hard to do so. The easiest way is to trigger something 23.5 hours after sunset.

There's no FlowCard to do that with.
The only way to do it, is the way @KoenMartens describes.

In the pas there was a FlowCard for this, but it vanished when there were some troubles with sun- set/rise.
There's a issue on Git which requests to get the cards back, but there's nothing to say on when we get this back;
https://github.com/athombv/homey/issues/797

The fact its "labeled" and not closed, to me says its a valid request which can and will be solved.

@MarcelTimmermans ;
You have know how it works before you find it in this Fabulous forum ;-)

@Phuturist documented it in this comment:
https://forum.athom.com/discussion/comment/15118/#Comment_15118
I have since a couple of months three push msg each day on my tablet to test since it didn't work first (sunrise, almost half an hour before sunset and sunset. )

Edit:
And this is the way I do it:
