Gestures with HS-WD200+

Tue Apr 16 15:47:00 EDT 2019

Here is the script that works.

This is the On script (which is the only place you need the scene script):
on centralScene(theButton, theGesture)
	write log "central scene processing for " & (thisUnit) & " theButton=" & theButton & " theGesture=" & theGesture
	if theButton = "1" then
		if theGesture = "131" then -- double click
			-- write log "double click ON"
			-- since the switch doesn't control it's local load when doing a double click the first thing we should do is control it
			turnon "Basement Hall Lights"
			-- brighten "other room light" to 75
			-- turnon "yet another light in the room"
		end if
		if theGesture is equal to "128" then
			write log "single click ON"
		end if
		if theGesture is equal to "132" then
			write log "triple click ON"
		end if
	end if
	if theButton is equal to "2" then
		-- write log "the bottom paddle was pushed"
		if theGesture is equal to "131" then
			-- write log "double click OFF"
			turnoff "Basement Hall Lights"
		end if
	end if
end centralScene

— the following is the normal part of the on script that happens only when a single button push happens
-- Since we are setting the LEDs manually, turn on the LEDs when the lights are on
tell xUnit "Basement Lights" to setData(23, 1, 7)
tell xUnit "Basement Lights" to setData(24, 1, 7)
tell xUnit "Basement Lights" to setData(25, 1, 7)
tell xUnit "Basement Lights" to setData(26, 1, 7)
tell xUnit "Basement Lights" to setData(27, 1, 7)

This is the off script:
-- Since we are setting the LEDs manually, turn off the LEDs when the lights are off
tell xUnit "Basement Lights" to setData(27, 1, 0)
tell xUnit "Basement Lights" to setData(26, 1, 0)
tell xUnit "Basement Lights" to setData(25, 1, 0)
tell xUnit "Basement Lights" to setData(24, 1, 0)
tell xUnit "Basement Lights" to setData(23, 1, 0)

I am using LEDs in the basement ceiling lights, so I usually have the unit in Xtension dimmed considerably. I am also using 2 of the LEDs on the switch to indicate that my garage doors are open. I turn them red when the doors are open in the garage door unit script. For those reasons, I am manually turning on the LEDs at the switch in the on/off scripts.

>>> The on/off script will run normally with the reception of a single click, so you can just put your code there. However, they may be called more than once if the ramp rate is long enough that the Vera reports an interim value between the on and off. If you wish to have other things controlled by a single click of the paddle it would be better to put it into the centralScene handler unless it doesn’t matter if it’s triggered more than once.
