Hi,
I am creating an Alarm Clock using the castv2 node.
A function node (advised by castv2 maker) is used to send a message in a special format to the Google Home device(s).
Each message contains a command to control a cast [MEDIA, TTS, STOP, PLAY, VOLUME, CLOSE etc.]
Now for the Alarm Clock I have to send the following commands VOLUME, MEDIA:
- Set volume to 50
(wait a few seconds to finish the VOLUME command) - Cast a Media file (internet radio stream)
In my current flow this are 2 function nodes which have to be send in the listed order and with a certain delay, because the commands overrule eachother on the casting device(s). Now I use a QUEUE node for sequencing the commands to the castv2 Node.
Since I use domoticz as software I use a Switch to trigger the Alarm Clock.
Switches in domoticz have timer options (which I use to set the Alarm at certain times)
Also here a function node is used to filter the IDX of the domoticz switch:
When IDX=243 && nvalue=1 (switch on), the 2 function nodes (castv2 commands) are activated.
This are 3 function nodes. Is there a more efficient way to combine the functions and queue node?
Because I also want to STOP and CLOSE the MEDIA (again 3 sepparate commands) when the Domoticz switch is set to off (nvalue=0)
