I’m having issues with a microgreens watering system that I built. This is using a 16 channel relay with dosing at set times with variable dosing times based on whether or not the Switch node has the gate node on or off. The switch and number input nodes work properly to change the variables on the backend but on refresh of the page, the dashboard-2 nodes won’t pull any newly changed variables - they go back to some previous numbers from some point in time. The settings.js file is set to contextStorage: { default: { module:"localfilesystem" }, }, and it seems that is working correctly based on what context data is showing in the backend. How do I get switch state and Dose time in the Number Input nodes to correctly show the stored variable? Once I get all this refined a bit more I’ll post it as a project for others to copy.
