rename readings and use impulse output for relays

[claudio]

Hi guys,

I'm searching a way to rename the individuals readings PortA0 to PortB7 with a more user friendly name because portXX doesn't give any clues. I've have 3 mcp23017 like this, 2 are inputs and 1 is output.

Also, I've haven't found a proper way to make some output ports to act as an impulse (on for 0.2s and then off for exemple), the module doesn't support on-for-timer extension. Any ideas ?

readingsProxy might help.

[claudio]

thanks
I would like to change the readings names of the device itself, moreover, adding a reading proxy doesn't seem to make on-for-timer available

[Beta-User]

I'm pretty sure rP offers SetExtension functionality, and anyhow it makes handling in FHEM easier when having a seperate device for each switching channel.

[claudio]

I can't seem to setup impulse type for reading proxy, do you have exemples ?

I already have it in the attributes of reading proxy :

Code Auswählen Erweitern

setList    PortA3:on,off

the relay is actionned but I can't use on-for-timer. I just want to click one time and the relay should do ON then OFF

[TomLee]

therefore I wrote that it can only be on and off in the list

[claudio]

yep, as written in the first post, I'm looking for a way to activate the relay in "impulse mode", on then off automatically after a defined timeout

[TomLee]

I think we're still talking past each other.  Have you just tried on and off in the setList?  The setextensions are only active if these two setters also appear in the list.Then on-for-timer is also available in the selection list.

yes,
if I only put on off in setlist, I can't activate the relay:

attr relay_out_1 setFn { return 'PortA3 on' if( $CMD eq 'on' );return 'PortA3 off' if( $CMD eq 'off' )}

?

edit:

a little shorter:

{($CMD eq "on")?"PortA3 1 on":"PortA3 1 off"}

thats pretty much it!
except the 1's in the second
now, how do I create a command "set relay_out_1 on-for-timer 0.3" with a friendly name in the GUI ?

I've added
attr relay_out_1 webCmd on-for-timer 0.3

but How do I change the name ?

Thanks you very much!
