rename readings and use impulse output for relays

[TomLee]

I'm not sure what you mean with rename ?

Maybe cmdalias ? Look in commandref and the Wiki

I have a clickable link named "on-for-timer 0.3" in DeviceOverview, I would like to change it's name like "move the gate" instead. There's no cmdalias in the menu

I don't think it is possible to define a command with spaces:

Code Auswählen Erweitern

attr Demo eventMap /on-for-timer 0.3:move.the.gate/

I meant changing the name of the webCmd

nevermind, I found it

this is the working solution:

I understood, and i mean you didn't defined the eventMap and understand what it does.

thanks you very much for your help TomLee!

If you never need the pure "on" but always want to have a pulse sent, I'd recommend to remap the "on" command useing the complex form (see commandref frame, eventMap). Should work like this (untested):

Code Auswählen Erweitern

attr relay_out_1 eventMap { usr=>{'on'=>'on-for-timer 0.3'} }

Hi !
I do see the point of replacing on by on-for-timer and indeed this is always what I want. But

Code Auswählen Erweitern

attr relay_out_1 eventMap { usr=>{'on'=>'on-for-timer 0.3'} }

appear to freeze fhem, messages of deep recursion of subroutine after fhem restarted itself:

Ups, sorry for that. Then you may have to use a different command to activate the on-for-timer version.

You may do another experiment first with more exact regexp like

Code Auswählen Erweitern

attr relay_out_1 eventMap { usr=>{'^on$'=>'on-for-timer 0.3'} }but I'm afraid this won't work either, as SetExtension also internaly uses "on" (and "off) commands to implement on-for-timer etc..
