    Alarm from Phone to Homeseer

    Hi, i just got started with Tasker, and ill be honest, its intimidating !!

    im trying to pass the next alarm variable to homeseer whenever the alarm is changed so that i can trigger a wake up event at the right time and only on the days that i have an alarm set.

    it looks like i can do this with Tasker and this plugin but i have no idea how to get started with that.

    could you point me in the right direction?

    thanks

    Hi Raptor,

      Hello Raptor,

      There is already an function in HS3 Samples tab under profiles.
      Profilename is "Alarm Clock", when your phone trigger alarm it will call hs3 event AlarmClock. You may need to create the Hs3 event AlarmClock
      Maybe this is not what you are looking for?
      You may also check the Android Tasker plugin AutoAlarm that have a lot more functions that you can integrate with tasker and hs3 plugin.

          Hi Raptor,
          Newer versions of Android don't seem to respond to the built in Tasker Alarm function. I used to use what you showed here before and that stopped working.

          So have you tried this:

          There is an Android app (AlarmPad). Install this and configure your alarms. I use this because newer versions of Android don't seem to trigger the alarm in Tasker. So this app is a remedy for that.

          - Create a new profile in tasker and choose plugin : AlarmPad event Alarm Triggered

          - Configuration : Alarm Triggered

          - add task (optional) WOL. This app has a Tasker plugin so set up the computers you want to wake up before you add.

          - add task: Variable set
          %HSSetdevicestring to: Alarm Triggered
          %HSSetdevicevalue to : 1
          %HsRef to : your device
          %HSCommand to : DeviceUpdate

          N.B this profife dosen't serem to do EXIT task


          b)
          - Create a new profile in tasker and choose plugin : AlarmPad event Alarm Dismissed

          - add task: Valiable set
          %HSSetdevicestring to: Alarm Dismissed
          %HSSetdevicevalue to : 0
          %HsRef to : your device (created earlier)
          %HSCommand to : DeviceUpdate

          There is a new Spud's plugin (Easy Trigger). Use that to run events in HomeSeer based on the strings (Alarm Triggered and Alarm Dismissed)
          I use this one to wake up the systems so by the time get to the living room the News is ready on KODI/XBMC. You can adapt to you own liking.

          Regards.

            Awesome! thanks, thats what i needed, it seems to work now.

            Tasker is just so powerful it can be overwhelming.

            is there a way to have it trigger say 1 minute before the alarm?

              Hi Raptor,

              I had a closer look at ALARMPAD app. (It's a beast in it's own rights) But I think the feature you are asking for is to do with scheduling which you can do on the calender side of of the app (AlarmPad)
              There is a good read here:http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/wake-in...pad-just-wake/

              There is an option (Alarm Early Notification) on the Tasker side of the AlamPad plugin but I just don't seem to see or how to configure it.
              But if you do find it then set your Tasker Plugin Profile as below:-

              Event :

              Alarm Early Notification

              Then create

              Task:

              1. Variable Set
              %HSSetdevicestring To Alarm Early Notification
              2.Variable Set
              %HHSSetdevicevalue To 1
              3.Variable Set
              %HsRef To..........."Your Deive"
              4.Variable Set
              %HSCommand To DeviceUpdate

              And then you can reset the device value to 0 using the the Alarm Dismissed Profile.

              You can also look at Spud's HomeSeer Plugin which will help you to tie all things together. Found here: http://board.homeseer.com/showthread.php?t=173836

              Hope that helps.
