hi
in my project, node-red is for me complete new, but I like it very very much
but in this case, I'm not able to finde a way out to solve the following function
a) it is a scheduler where is set the time to start a sequence automatically
b) a switch, for manually start (without scheduler) or for automatic start (with scheduler)
I have tried several ways without any success - what is there wrong ???
I would be very thankful for any help
Max

Please see this post and then edit the flow in your post above
Very hard to make out what you are doing but a quick glance seems to show that you have === "true" - are your true/false entries actually strings? If not, it should probably be === true
Once you repost as per the above it will be easier to see - but i would suggest before you go much further - have a look at
All of these are programmable timers that can operate at slightly different levels and in slightly different ways - i have yet to find a home automation scheduing problem that i am not able to manage with one of these three nodes
Craig
thank you
MyTimeout by "ncherry" I have seen, but this timer is for my project much, to much complex
I'm worry about only of this problem, why I can not make a decision like,
if (var1 = 1 AND var2 = 1) then 1, else 0 (when one of this var are 0)
but may be this "AND" would be a problem, I think
Max
Repost your flow as the other guys have said so we can import it.
Then document in plain english (words) what real world problem you are trying to solve and your thoughts on the logic that you are using to approach it.
We may be able to come up with something for you.
Here is an example of how i am using Mytimeout in a simple scenario

Both are only using basic features of each of the nodes
Craig
basic Javascript
if (var1 ==1 ) && (var2==1) {
var 3 = 1;
}
else {
(var3 =0);
}
regards
Craig
And if you don't want to use a function node, use a couple switch nodes
sw1 - if (var1 = 1) true go to sw2 - default go and send a 0
sw2 - if (var2 = 1) send 1 - default send a 0
thank you
how I have to repost the flow
I'm not understand how I have to do to post the flow
(copy the flow in the clipboard "for export" and then... ?
thank you, may be this will help, I will try
If you read the link I posted in the first response it explains what you need to do and why you need to do it.
Try copying your flow from your post and try importing it into Node-RED (Import > Clipboard) you will find that it doesn't recognise it as a valid file.
yes I can see this, but sorry about, I don't understand the procedure, that I have to do, also I can not follow in the guide there is mention
please help me
wrap the code with ``` - three back-tick characters.
On an english (US) keyboard) that is the character below the ~ key next to the 1 key at the top of the keyboard

In your if statement the brackets need to contain the entire condition you are testing for
see the && example here

thank you
but something most be wrong, the in any case I get a 0

var timeOn = flow.get('timeOn');

Insert after these lines something like
node.warn("timerActive is " + timerActive)
node.warn("timerOn is " + timeOn)
to see what those are set to. Those messages will be displayed in the debug tab.
